May Your Every Dream Come True

 

Hi everyone and happy Thursday :)

Today I want to share a card with you that I made 2 months ago in December :-) 
It was the very first card I made with the brand new Radiant Neon inks from IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko.  

I know, I know... I already have shown some cards with these inks here on my blog, but this one was the first I created, anyway *lol*  
I made it for CHA and almost forgot to post it here on my blog *oops*

I just love how these rich pigment inks pop against every background - no matter if you use them on white (like I did here) or on black or whatever, you always achieve a stunning effect with them! Oh and you can actually blend them, which gives you a totally different - yet still wonderful - effect! Will show you a sample card with blended Radiant Neons in a future blog post ;-) 

You may notice, that I did not use any embellishments on the above card, not even my beloved rhinestones or sequins! That's because I thought these Neon inks paired with the adorable stamps, just make such a great impression that it didn't need anything else. 

I am curious if you feel the same? Or do you think, there's something missing? 

I have layered several ink colors over another, by simply heat setting each color layer underneath before stamping over it with the next color! This way you will not have any mess or mix up colors. You can find the detailed step-by-step instructions below this post in the grey boxes!

Did I already tell you, that I love these inks? ;-) Yes, I ***really*** do!!! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)

CAS-ual Fridays - Polka Dots

 

Hi everyone and happy Friday :)

It's time for a new CAS-ual Fridays challenge! :-)

Our challenge theme for you this week is:

Hallo zusammen und Euch allen einen wunderschönen Freitag :-)

Es ist auch schon wieder Zeit für eine neue CAS-ual Fridays Challenge! :-)

Die Herausforderung für diese Woche lautet:

 

use material on your CAS project:  fabric, canvas, felt etc

benutze textile Materialien auf Deinem CAS Projekt: Stoff, Leinwand, Filz usw

 

This weeks sponsor is Simon Says Stamp

Der Sponsor in dieser Woche ist Simon Says Stamp

 

For my card, I simply stamped the frame and sentiment (Avery Elle) onto a piece of polka dot paper (October Afternoon) then fussy cut it. Created a little bow with a piece of red jewelery floss and adhered it to the stamped label with Glossy Accents. Then I mounted everything with dimensional foam pads.

 

Für meine Karte habe ich einfach den Rahmen und den Spruch (Avery Elle) Auf ein Stück Papier mit Tupfenmuster (October Afternoon) gestempelt und dieses dann konturengenau ausgeschnitten. Dann noch ein kleines Schleifchen aus Schmuckdraht geformt und mit Glossy Accents aufgeklebt. Alle Teile habe ich dann zum Schluss mit 3D Pads zusammen und übereinander geklebt.
