Supplies used: Echo Park Little Girl papers and stickers, Doodlebug Designs stickers, CTMH cardstock (retired), and CTMH Stardust Glitter Glitz Gel.
For the white glittery border strip, I “painted” white cardstock with the CTMH Stardust Glitter Glitz Gel, let dry, and attached. This is a great way to add glitter!!
I used this sketch from Scrapbook Generation:
I used used Echo Park paper and stickers for this layout with some added Studio 18 rhinestones. I used a sketch from Let’s Scrap.
Welcome to our Technique Blog Hop! This month we are highlighting the Technique as shown on page 55 in the Autumn/Winter 2012 Idea Book and expanding it to include all coloring techniques!
This blog hop is a circle so you can start wherever you want and continue through to see all the fabulous artwork incorporating this technique. So if you are starting here, just continue until you make your way back. If you have already started, you should be coming from Amy Kaminski’s Blog.
Supplies used are all Close to My Heart unless otherwise stated: Die Cuts With a View paper, Twilight Marker Set, Clear Sparkles, Bitty Opaques Pearl, Just Blooms Flutter Paper Shapes, and DCWV alphabet stickers.
I took a different approach to the technique this month. I am showing some of the things besides stamped images that you can color with the new Close to My Heart alcohol markers. I used both colors that come in the Twilight set but for the most part I did not notice a difference in color. I did like the lighter color for the butterflies but I did one with each and you can see there is not much of a difference, if you can tell at all. The sparkles are a very light color with they are finished. My favorite coloring was on the pearls. They took the color very well and are beautiful! I would recommend either heat-setting the pearls and sparkles or letting them out to dry. After 10 minutes, my pearls were still wet to touch but they were dry overnight.
Other items that would be good to color: Color-Ready Wooden Shapes, Color-Ready Alphabets, ribbon, any of the Just Blooms, cork, chipboard, etc.
Thanks for stopping by! Please continue onto Joy McHargue’s Blog where you will find some additional artwork highlighting this technique! Be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you thought of my variation and happy hopping!
Here is a list of participants:
Supplies used: CTMH Adore stamp set, unknown papers, ScrapWorks Tailored Letters, CTMH Cotton Candy ink, CTMH Buttons, and Rangers Cotton Candy Stickles.
The letters I used are really cute but I have to say you sure don’t get much in a package. I opened this and had to make the second “o” from the “q”. It worked but not exact. I think this is such a beautiful stamp set. I’m also going to make some “love” cards with it as well. Then, because I don’t care to thread buttons but I like the finished look, I tried something new. I added Stickles to the middle of my buttons. And I like it!! I just filled in the holes but I’m sure you could add more across the middle to appear like a stitch.
