Stationer's Desk Mini Album for Gina's Designs

First up I cut out a image I wanted to show inside my charm.

I used glossy accents to adhere it.

Then I filled the inside with glossy accents.

After the glossy accents dried I used a nail file to scuff off the paper that was still showing. Once that was done I covered the outside with some Viva Decor Inka Gold paint/rub n buff stuff.

Here is the front cover. 

Here is the first two pages.

Then next pages. I loved creating the waterfall pull system on the fourth page.

Here is the next set of pages.

The last two.

This mini is simple and great for someone to fill with whatever these see fit to put this together!

Items Used:

Typewriter Shape Set

Wooden Charm - Circle Large

Here is a journal I made entirely from stamps, cream cardstock, Distress inks, and Distress stains.

Last this is a favorite of mine. I did this art journal page using Dylusions Sprays, Distress Inks, Distress Markers, and stamps!

Hope to make the team would love love love to get to inspire others the way I was inspired by the previous VLVS team!

You Shine

Hi everyone. Today I am up for another day of inspiration over at Loves Rubberstamps and you will love the card I have today to share with you. 

I kept it simple as I really wanted the image to "Shine". I love these style of Tiddly images and the hair is such a fun challenge for me. I also enjoyed coloring the balloons. 

The balloons got a coat of glossy accents to add some shine.

The image of course was colored with copics!

The sentiment I gave some dimensions just to give the card some pop. 

So hope you were inspired to do a little stamping today!

Hide N Seek

Good morning everyone!  Shanna here to share a layout. I have had this photo of my daughter for a while and I absolutely love it. I was waiting for the right papers to create it and here it is. I love these papers and then I got the idea to use some of the Texture Sheet - Checkerboard style.  

First I gave it coat of gesso, then used some spray to give it color. I really wanted it to pop so I used a palette knife to spread texture paste across,  not to fully cover but just to make it pop.

I also used a key from the Keys and Plates Set. I gave it a coat of some Inka Gold and then some chalk to dull down the shine. 

I had to finish the layout with some flowers and some Lindy Stamp Gang splatters and I thought the title Hide n Seek was perfect for this layout. It was her favorite game once she got her feet. 

I decided for my layout to use the Scraps of Darkness April kit which contained some lovely Prima papers and then I added some Prima flowers too.

Challenges:

Prima BAP
