**VIDEO** Sweet Peas Thank You Card (IBS March Sneak Peak!)

March 11, 2014

IBS - 20140310-1

Hi guys! On Monday, I showcased this adorable card along with a video tutorial over at the Inspired By Stamping Blog.  This card features a HOT stamp set that is coming out next week along with amazing products by IBS. This is called Sweet Peas Stamp Set and is filled with these wonderful image and different sentiments. There is also a smaller version that is perfect for gift tags or smaller cards to fit your needs.

For today’s card, I used some Distress Markers by Tim Holtz. I wanted to create a soft look using some pink and purple colors. I used Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry, Dusty Concord, Peeled Paint, and Shabby Shutters. You can color along the outline and blend it using a watercolor brush or an aqua paint brush.

One more tip – If you want to pop out an image, give it some shadow. I took the Pumice Stone Distress Marker to go around the bottom area of the image and blended it to give a subtle shading. I think this really makes a different. Make sure to keep this technique in mind when creating projects!

What do you think about this sentiment? I love the elegant look of the sentiment with two different font styles. I simply embossed the stamp set using some white embossing powder.

I hope you enjoyed the card! Make sure to watch the video below to see the process in action. Thank you for stopping by!

    Happy Holidays and for those who are celebrating, Merry Christmas- Many of us are spending today in an unusual way this year, and many of us are also remembering those we lost. I ask that you keep others in your thoughts this holiday season 💕 sending hugs and loves to your way ❤️❤️

Made cookies and cheesecake brownies for our next door neighbors who are spending today alone. I added a little touch with stamps and inks to dress up the cookie boxes 🎁

    Happy view 🥰🥰 New ink storage system for my office/studio desk. I wanted the most used inks right at my fingertips and these Alex drawers hold them perfectly. I am keeping both full sized and cubes together, along with 1 mini cube blending tool for each color family. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 #scrapsandstamps #inkstorage #craftroom #craftroomorganization #homestudio
    Good morning and happy Saturday lovlies!! 👋🏻👋🏻 I just realized my last post about 3-4 months ago was a glance at my studio. Lots of things happened in the past few months and Ive been just too stressed out that I lost my desire to craft. 😣Its been a rough yr for everyone and Im ready for a new start! 😍 Are you?? Im going to start working towards getting some routines where I can feel better and add creativity back to life. Why wait till Jan? We can start now 💕

I just moved and finally got around to finishing up my studio. Im such a perfectionist that it took me a while to get everything where I wanted. 😅 Im happy how it turned out and grateful that I can still have a place to work and craft. Im excited to share projects with you soon 🥰🥰🥰

    Took a couple of days off this week to recharge - mental break helps a lot! 👍🏻 While I enjoyed stay-home break, I finished swatching all of #danielsmithwatercolors - now I’ll build my own palette from these and start doing some watercolor with them. Seeing all these made me really happy 🥰🥰 Swatching watercolors are one of my fav ways to distress. What creative projects are you working on this weekend?? #watercolorswatches #watercolor #danielsmithwatercolor #danielsmithartistsmaterials #colorswatches
    Hello, beautiful!

    I decided to do something new and challenging during this #stayathome time. Took a beginner calligraphy class by @piecescalligraphy and I cant believe how fast 90min went by!! 😍😍 I have a lot of practice to do but really enjoyed learning. These are some of the things we did. My p’s are pretty horrible 😂😂 Cant wait for the next session!

    Happy Monday everyone- 💕💕 I was itching for a change so the other day I moved things around a bit in my studio. (This happens more often than not 😂) Even just a tiny bit of change can bring a big difference and give a fresh feel to your daily norm. Controlling what we can and not losing hope 🙏🏻 I wish you a fabulous and lovely week ahead 💙

    More therapeutic watercoloring session - I find taking the time to color each image with watercolor really helps me to relax. I think it has to do with a slow moving, soft transition of the pigments and water.

This card was made using a brand new #altenewstatementflowers stamp set and #altenewspringgarden
