Tonic Studios Blossoming Bouquet Stamps & Stencils Bundle!

 Hello Friends! I'm so excited to be back today to share a brand new exciting release from Tonic Studios - Blossoming Bouquet Stamps and Stencils Bundle!! You can find the UK Shop HERE and the US Shop HERE! I've created some beautiful cards using awesome Tonic and Nuvo products - check out the links at the bottom of the page - and a walk through Video of these lovely products with a look at exactly how you can create them! 

The Layered Lily Stencil contains 5 stencils/masks to create a gorgeous flower background! I stenciled with Metro Gray, Sunrise Yellow and Lime Burst Nuvo Inks and stamped a sentiment from the Blossoming Bouquet Stamp Set with Black Shadow Ink. I used the flower mask and Glitterati Gold Glimmer Paste for the centers of the flowers and then added a strip of Seafoam Green Mirror Cardstock. All cardbases were created using the Craft Perfect A4 Smooth White Cardstock, and I cut the cardbases to be 4 1/8" x 5 1/2". I added in some Cloud 9 Dream Drops around the sentiment.

Here's another colour variation on the Layered Lily Stencil with Metro Gray, Moroccan Teal and Lotus Flower Inks. I used Frosted Petal Glacier Paste in the centers this time.

I added a sliver of Candy Floss Glitter Cardstock!

The Blossoming Bouquet Stencil is so cool! You stencil the leaves first and then twist the floral images to line up! For a tutorial using this stencil, be sure to check out the video below!

I stenciled the leaves first with Lime Burst Ink and then the roses with Lotus Flower on this card. I used Dried Oregano to add flourish stamps from the stamp set and added Enchanting Pink Glitter Drops on this tiny stenciled dots. The beautiful butterflies from the set are stamped with Black Shadow Ink and coloured in with Pastel Highlights Color Pencils. I popped them up with Nuvo Foam dots and added the awesome friendship sentiment.

For the second version of this stencil, I used the other flowers and a combination of  Moroccan Teal and Sliced Strawberry Inks. I added in stamping with Marble Statue Ink. I used Silver Lining Crystal Drops and Love Potion Dream Drops to accent the background this time. 

I again coloured in the butterflies with the Pastel Highlights Coloured Pencils in colours that matched the inks.

For the Lovely Layering Stencil, I inked the flowers in Sunrise Yellow and used Pink Novalie Glitter Paste as my accent layer. In the video you'll see another colour combo! 

I stamped the flourishes with Dried Oregano Ink and then use some Nuvo Alcohol Markers to colour in some tiny flower and leaf stamps. The Lotus Flower Ink was perfect to stamp the sentiment and matched that Candy Floss Glitter Paper perfectly! I added in a few Enchanted Pink Glitter Drops for the finishing touch!

For my last card, I simply used the beautiful Blossoming Bouquet Stamp Set! There are so many amazing images!! I stamped on Kraft cardstock, which is always great to add pencil colouring to, and used the Dark Shadows Classic Color Pencils to add a vibrant effect! 

I added some pretty dots of colour using the French Lilac Crystal Drops.

You'll find an amazing 26 stamps and 7 stencils in this set, which includes a 6x8" Blossoming Bouquet stamp set as well as the Blossoming Bouquet, Lovely Layering Floral and Layered Lily Stencil sets - perfect to create gorgeous floral cards! Here's a look at the video where you can see everything up close!

A Recipe Challenge:

Glitter, Stencil & Sentiment!

This was a super easy challenge!! I love playing with my stencils when I get them and I had some backgrounds already made with the beautiful Pretty Poinsettias Layering Stencil and Krafty Kolours Inks! I grabbed some lovely Glitter Dust Spray and sprayed a shimmery layer of glittery goodness over the whole background. If you haven't tried Glitter Dust, you are going to want to... and it may just be a must have! There is such a gorgeous shimmer and it doesn't rub off!!

I added a strip of red glitter paper and stamped a sentiment from this month's new release - Holiday Sentiments - which is full of amazing seasonal and funny holiday sentiments! 

Here's a closeup of that lovely glittery background! Lastly, I added drops of clear Ranger Stickles Glitter Glue on the background details! I have a quick, festive and glittery card to add to my Christmas Cards now! Next on the list, mailing!! This could easily be a card that would be perfect to mass produce!

We are so excited to share a wonderful winter set 

by artist

Neda Sadreddin called...

SKATING FRIENDS!

You'll notice this awesome set coordinates with yesterday's SNOWBALL FIGHT stamp set and features our friends taking part in some fun skating activities!

This set has so many adorable images!! I decided to use the sweet bunny stamp and watercolour her with Zebra Clickart Markers. I love the swish lines that make these critters look like they are skating by! 

I created a background on my gelli plate with sprays, the New Cool Crystals Stencil and Krafty Kolour Inks and then attached the coloured banner on top. 

I used a chipboard label with some pretty shimmery Cosmic Shimmer Opal Blaze from the Add-On Bundle and the Oh What Fun sentiment. With this fun sentiment, this card could easily be a Christmas card or a winter card, perfect for birthdays or more! I added some pretty snowflakes with the Hello Sunshine Stamp Set and a few dots of Nuvo Glitter Drops for the finishing touch!

SNOWBALL FIGHT!

This adorable set features an assortment of wintery friends having the best time ever!! Seriously, do you remember how much fun it was as a kid to have a snowball fight?!

I chose to stamp the adorable squirrel and snowman on watercolour paper and use my Zebra Clickart markers to watercolour them! I love that this sweet squirrel is building a snowman!! 

I created a background with some sprays and the beautiful New Cool Crystals stencils snowflake stencil and cut out the middle to add my scene to.

I added elements from the New Krafty Scenery 4 stencil - lightly adding Krafty Kolours Inks to create snowbanks, clouds and a moon. My daughter has been having fun playing in the snow in the backyard after supper and it is dark by then too! I stamped some of the cute snow circle images and snowflakes from Hello Sunshine. Then I added a friend sentiment along with a chipboard heart from the Add-On Bundle. I finished it off by adding sparkly mica shine using the Add-On Cosmic Shimmer to the snow and moon for a beautiful shine you can see so much better in person!
