Precious Friend

A quick post for the Craft Adda blog to celebrate friendship day!
I made this quick card today to celebrate this special day dedicated to all my precious friends!

To make this card, I applied some Tim Holtz distress inks to my craft sheet and sprayed some water on them.
When they were diluted and watery, I took a piece of card stock and placed it lightly on the ink and removed it almost immediately.
I repeated this process to make many background pieces of card stock.
A little ink goes a long way!!!
I then stamped  the gem stone motifs and the sentiment  from the Winnie and Walter "my precious" stamp set and added some sparkly gemstones.
I placed the card stock on a kraft card to finish the card.
A quick and easy card…easy to make multiples!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I hope you had a great friendship day!

Water!

Hey there!
For my official Craft Adda post today, I have a nautical themed card for a 60th birthday for a gentleman who likes boats.


This is a smaller card…what I like to call a notelet…
I punched some holes on the side and threaded a bit of coir rope through it, to create interest. 

Supplies used…
The background stamp is 'Bark' from Local King Rubber stamps.
Boat and knot and wheel from Paper Smooches 'Wicked Nautical'.
Die cut numbers from Lawn Fawn
Happy sentiment from Winnie and Walter.

Inks used are from Memento and Tim Holtz.
I used watercolour pencils to colour the boat rand the knot.

I thought it would be interesting to try and make a water themed card…without depicting water!

Would love to hear what you think…
Thanks so much for stopping by…
Have a great day!
