Funny Friday with Art Impressions: Halloween Scene

Hey, friends! It’s Shari Carroll here with another installment of our Funny Friday series with Art Impressions! I was intrigued when I saw the Halloween Front Porch Series stamp and die set and thought it would be fun to step forward into Fall a wee bit!

This is a scene-building stamp and die set featuring two sets. The Front Porch is the base set and has many styles of stamp sets that go with it. It’s also the perfect size for an A2 card.

To see how this all came together, check out my video below.

Easy Color for Detailed Images: EZ with CZ

Hi friends! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Cathy Zielske, where, she is sharing with us a FUN and EASY way to color detailed images (like our new School Supplies background cling stamp) and finishing off the look with a Gold Metallic greeting featuring our new Just a Note die set! Read on, and be sure to watch the video for all the details! Enjoy!

Hi everyone! It’s Cathy Z. back with another installment of EZ with CZ! Today I’m sharing one of my favorite ways to NOT color in a detailed image! I love to stamp a big, detailed image, add some embossing powder, and voila: create an emboss resist background. This is such a quick way to blend on beautiful color while still preserving all the details of any large stamp.

The School Supplies cling stamp is a really fun background image, but I didn’t want to figure out all the different marker colors so instead, a nice rainbow blend over the top of the embossing powder was the easiest way to create a panel for my card. The melted embossing powder resists the ink, leaving behind a fresh, crisp white image.

I added my CZ Design Just a Note die for a finishing touch with a layer of Simon Says Stamp Matte Gold Cardstock stacked on top of a few layers of the die in white cardstock.

Here is my tutorial showing how easy this card is to create:
