Clearsnap Misted Starburst Card

Today I want to share this fun card that I created for Clearsnap using their Smooch Spritz mists and Crafter's Mini accent inks. I used a Crafter's Workshop mask for the background. The Crafter's ink minis are great because the color is opaque and covered the mist perfectly. I was glad that I didn't need to mask!



On this card, I started out by laying down the template and misting over it with gold Smooch spritz. Next, I stamped with Chalk ink, using the Impression Obsession and Hero arts stamps. Finally, I used the Crafter's Accent ink mini's to color in the stamped image. The Crafter's inks require heat to give them a permanent set, so I heated in between each color, to avoid smearing. I think I also heated after a couple of petals on the flower.



Supplies:

Hero Arts Sentiment Stamp

Bo Bunny Clearsnap Layout

I took one look at the bright colors in the Bo Bunny double dot 6x6 pack and decided that it would go great with some Stephanie Barnard dye ink sprays. I had a little bit of altering to do, to get my title and flowers to all match, but the sprays and some crafter's ink did the trick!


I misted the flowers with the dye ink sprays to make them bright and fun!



For the title, I inked the back of the acrylic letters in 'chilling' with crafter's ink and then heat set it. That caused the acrylic to bend a little, but I like the funky look it gives.


I also misted the background cardstock with a combo of bubblegum and some splashes of guava.

Supplies:
Clearsnap Stephanie Barnard dye ink sprays in Bubblegum, Guava, Banana, and Tangerine.
Clearsnap Colorbox Crafter's Ink in Sweet Pea and spiced plum


Bazzill Cardstock

Joy's life dimension card

Today I have a super easy card for you with fun dimensional elements!

I used the sentiment from the My Hero set. The paperclips were already colored, I just bent them into triangles and glued them onto the card with some glossy accents (or maybe it was fabritac). It's simple, but I love how the paper clips look a little like the chevron/arrow trend, and bring in primary colors relating to a kid (or a superhero). Of course, the ink is Clearsnap.

Molding Mat and Modeling Pasted


For this card, I used my new favorite mixed media product, modeling paste. I applied it in a strip with a palette knife after masking off the rest of the card to create nice crisp edges. Then I inked the molding mat and pressed it into the modeling paste. 

The inks and molding mat are all Clearsnap. The striped stamps are hero arts and the sentiment is Stamps of Life.

Clearsnap Ombre Sprinkles card


I just love this card! (If I do say so myself) To make this card, I cut strips of cardstock and inked them with various Clearsnap inks into a sort of ombre look. After the strips were dry, I covered them in Sprinkles chunky glitter. The butterfly is from Impression Obsession and I colored it in using Smooch Accent inks.

Other Supplies:
  • Stamps: Impression Obsession (butterfly) and Hero Arts (Sentiment)
  • Circle Punch

Joy's Life Honey Pot card

These new Joy's Life stamps are so much fun! I am having a great time pairing them up with my Cricut library! 


This time I used the 'I love you, honey' stamp from the That Tastes Punny set. I paired it with a honey jar shaped card! 

This shape is actually a cookie jar from the Savory cartridge. I used Bazzill cardstock, Clearsnap ink, Eyelet Outlet brads, and Twinery twine.
