AAA Cards #87 Shiny Spring & Darnell's NBUS Challenge #11

 

A twofer as Darnell would say

Having a good day with cards coming together.  Yeah!!!

Entering this in AAA Cards

Darnell's NBUS

 

I am just doing a NBUS card, because anything that has a boo boo on it either goes in the trash or if it isn't too bad gets covered up with an embellishment.

I used a three stamp sets from Catherine Pooler, Amazing Floral, For Everything & Spot On with her ink pads that I love so much.

I used clear Wink of Stella on everything for the shine, which is hard to see in the picture.  I will be happy to put these stamp sets away as they have been out for quite awhile.

Thanks for stopping by.

AAA Cards #68 Tags

 

I found this pretty tag in my stash and thought it would be perfect for this week's AAA Cards 

I made the background with a technique that I watched on Jennifer McGuire's Blog

 Using Hero Arts Pale Tomato Shadow Ink then stamping with Versamark and also H/A Unicorn white pigment ink and adding some Perfect Pearls. The Perfect Pearls almost makes it appear to be gold. I really love how the background turned out even with a couple spots that I messed up.

One card three challenges which doesn't happen often.

I sponged the background with Distress Inks, then used a Heidi Swapp star stencil to sponge over that.  I had two larger stars that I used as masks but didn't like the white space so sponged over them too.

The banner and sentiment are from PTI.  I received this sentiment stamp set from Darnell for my birthday.  Perfect for this tiny banner.

PTI - Summer sunrise pattern paper

Banner was sponged with  Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise & Orange Zest.
