Christmas Night - Tag Tutorial by Susanne

Hi everyone!
It's Susanne writing today and I'm sharing a step by step tutorial for this Christmas Night tag. I used Brushos, different stamps from the Textured Series and a sentiment from the Christmas Cheers and Gift Tags.


I started with a dark blue and a bright orange Brusho background.



I sprinkled white liquid watercolor all over the tag after I've colored the edges black. I believe I used a black Pitt Artist Pen.

After everything was bone dry, I embossed some stars on top and the sentiment in the middle. I used WOW! Sparkling Snow Glitter.


Finally I cut out the houses and adhered them on the bottom. I colored the windows and doors with Distress Markers (Walnut Stain, Mustard Seed).




Thanks you for stopping by today.
xx Susanne.

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between...

Rubber Dance has gained a following of stampers that love our Sarcasm Superpowers sentiment stamps. These aren't exactly our best seller stamps (not very surprisingly), but if you love them, you'll LOVE them! And this particular group of followers certainly do - not very surprisingly at all with a group name like theirs .... namely the  Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! (I know, right? Too darn cute!) These fine ladies have bullied me and some of my designers into a blog hop featuring our Sarcasm Superpower stamps. It didn't take much persuation, nor any bribes to speak of. Just mention  "challenge", and we'll be all over you like underfed fruitflies on a brown banana. And that's what the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers is all about - a challenge blog with new challenges every other week. Fasten your seat belts and enjoy the bumpy ride! Of course there will be a prize.... if you make it to the end. Here's what I've made for our hop: ...
