Growing Green Technique Card....

This is the last of my Growing Green card series....(read - finally returned Cassie's stamp set)! LOL.

This card I taught for technique class yesterday, and is a square version of my MIL's card from a couple of posts ago. 

Michelle picked the technique, Masking, but this was a surprise card with a second sneaky technique, which you couldn't see on the photo, but you can see below........

 

Shimmer Mist made from Shimmer Paint.  Very simple, but effective.  Simply mix a little bit of Shimmer Paint with Isocol Rubbing Alcohol in a spray bottle, shake, spritz, and ...ta-dah....Simmer Mist!

All details are the same as for the previous MIL post. 

Happy Stamping......Manda.

A catty CASE.....

Here is another card that I've made using my friend Cassie's Growing Green stamp set.

Does it look a bit familiar?  When I first stamp with a new stamp set, I often am a little stumped as to where to start.  This is where the Ideas Book and Catalogue (IBC) comes in.  SU! actually want you to copy from it!!!  So the card above is my version of this one below.

You will notice that there are a few changes, namely because I don't have chipboard letters! 

Stamp set:  Growing Green, Afterthoughts

Card stock: Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, Very Vanilla

Ink: Wild Wasabi, Crumb Cake

Other: Basic Pearls, Woodland Walk DPS, Scallop oval punch, large oval punch
