Mixed Media with a New Set from The Alley Ways Stamps

Hello beautiful crafting friends!  I have a bit of sad news to share, The Alley Way Stamps is liquidating all of their sets and closing their doors.  I am so sad that it had to come to this, but I fully support Allison the creator, designer, and owner of the company during this difficult time.  I am beyond blessed to have been able to be a part of her amazing team, and will forever be grateful for her kind support, inspiration, and most of all her friendship.  She is a beautiful person inside and out, and someone I will always admire.

Please go support her one more time by making some awesome stamp purchases at a great price...

Now don't worry I'll end this on a happy note by sharing a Mixed Media journal page I've created with the new Wispy Wishes Stamp Set...

To create this page I started by embossing the dandelion seeds in white embossing powder.  I then just started layering the entire page with various Peerless watercolors.  I also used my heat tool in between colors to ensure they were drying before adding a new color.  I then stamped my sentiments with Versafine ink.  Finally I used a circle stencil and white chalk ink to add various sized "bubbles" to float along side of my seeds.

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Anything Goes with SweetStamps.com

Hello!  It is a new week and that means a new anything goes challenge is starting at SweetStamps.com, woo hoo!!!  This week I am sharing a bit of a satirical journal page that I've created with lots of SweetStamps.com goodies...

hehehe!  I was just in one of those moods when I started crafting, so I went with it! :)  To create this page I first started by covering my background with a mix of white gesso and Forest Shades ink spot and my finger.  After this dried I went over the background with the Circle Pavers Stencil and Forest ink again in various spots. Next came the embossing of the sentiment and girl.  For a fun play with colors I stamped some Creative Corner images like arrows in funky colors like Butterscotch and Paprika.  I then stamped some itty bitty dots in Montego Bay shades ink and splattered two of the corners with Dylusions ink spray in Crushed Grape.

Sometimes it's fun to just get messy, right?
