Swipe and Stamp

I love this technique! I have used it in various ways before, but not quite like this.  Watch this video and be inspired.  Get a new look with some of your favourite stamps and put a fresh look on some of your artwork by trying this technique.  Watch this and then go have some fun.... I dare you... and then post some of that artwork.  Have a wonderful day... blessings, Lucy :)

IT"S HERE!!!

The new Autumn/Winter Idea book is now live. As of today you can shop from the idea book or my website www.lucyimrie.ctmh.com .

It is jam packed with new product including 8 new paper packs and even more Workshops on the Go. 

 'Avonlea' is a great paper for heritage and family pictures.

'Dakota' is a more masculine paper line, boasting lots of country flair.

'Clementine' has lots of the new browns and sorbet, a feminine cowgirl feel.  Great for those girly layouts and yet good for boys too.

'Flirty' is a very bright and funky paper line.  Using new Flirty Raspberry, Flirty Yellow, Goldrush and New England Ivy  as its main colors it is bold and fun.  Great paper for cheeriness.  Teenagers will gravitate to this line.

'La Belle Vie' has a very French feel to it.  Romance, travel...this will be a go to paper for weddings and anniversaries, love, etc.  But it will appeal to the European traveller too.

'Moonlight'  features black, Goldrush, Slate and Smokey Plum in its color palette.  It will be the go to paper for all things Halloween.  It is also great for Thanksgiving and fall related themes.  This paper also works well for masculine pages and cards.

'Pear and Partridge'  features the new Cashmere color as well as olive, cranberry and desert sand in its palette.  This paper is great for all things Christmas and will work very well with some of the new home decor items that we are now carrying.

There are so many new accessories and stamp sets too. 

I am having a open house on August 9th at 7:00pm.  Come see the new products and create something while you are here.  Bring a friend with you, too.

  Take a look at my website to find all the new items that we are now carrying.  Have fun treasure hunting.

Have a great day, Lucy

Another 'Beautiful Friendship' Card

This is another take on the "Beautiful Friendship" stamp set.  For this card I used the 'Lucy' paper (my favourite ---I wonder why??), Colonial white Cardstock, Smoothie ribbon and ink, Sunflower ink, Sweet leaf ink, and Grey wool ink.  I did a sanding technique on the front medallion, before stamping on the word 'Friends', then added three AP roses to the front.  All were touched with a few drops of Glitter Glue and a mocha pearl opaque in the centre. A tendril of mini pearl opaques finishes off the front. 

The inside of the card was done with 2nd generation sweet leaf ink and grey wool.

 I enjoyed the process of this card - I hope you enjoy it too. Have a great weekend!!!!
