There will be Coordinating Cut files for some stamp sets ready to purchase!!!
Nine new stamp designs are debuting today. Autumn Sweater, Oak Leaf Print and Thanksgiving Block are fall themed stamps in a unique print style. And there are beautiful floral trio, Dahlia Close Up, Sweet Bouquet and Transformation. Effie has designed also three unique and chic stamp sets, Better in Red, Flawless and Swatch it.
My first two cards are showcasing the new make up themed stamp sets, Flawless and Better in Red along with Swatch it.
To make this card I started off by stamping the make up utensils from Flawless set in Noir on a white cardstock panel. Instead of coloring the images I added the brushstrokes from Swatch it set on them. I used Hollywood Star, Grand Fuchsia, Iris Blooms, Azurite, Arctic Sky, Caribbean Turquoise and Lemon Drop.
I white heat embossed the outline image of a lipstick on a Bristol Vellum panel several times to make a stamped background. I scribbled light green, yellow, pink and light blue Zig brush markers on a clear acetate sheet, sprayed pearlized water on it and pressed the heat embossed panel on the watercolor mix.
After the background panel was dry I cut it using a Double stitched Rectangle die and set it aside.
I then stamped the layering lipstick in Grand Fuchsia, Pink Derby, Beach Blondie, Amber Citrine, Noir and Smoky Quartz and fussy cut it. The lips from Smooched set was stamped in Grand Fuchsia and cut using the coordinating die.
The sentiment from Better in Red was stamped in Noir on a piece of heavyweight white cardstock and cut using a small Double stitched Rectangle die. The sentiment panel, lips and the lipstick were foam mounted on the background panel. To finish off I scattered Royal Garden Party, Winter Thaw Couture Mixes and Glass slippers sequins.
My last card for today is featuring Transformation set. It has a big butterfly image with a wing full of beautiful flowers. It includes also some meaningful sentiments!
I stamped the butterfly image in an embossing ink on a Bristol smooth paper panel. I heat embossed the flower side in Rose Gold and the other side in gold. The image was then colored with Zig Brush markers and Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers.
To create a separated look I masked the floral side and the left wing and stamped Haute Stripes background in Lemon Drop on the panel. I also added ink blending in Lemon Drop only on the side where the butterfly’s body is. I drew two black lines on the border of the striped background and stamped the sentiment from Transformation set on the panel in Noir.
