Hello, My crafty friends.. we’re almost there the weekend is just a few hours away. Woot! Woot! I’m hoping I’ll get to play a lot this weekend in the haven…… This evening I’m playing over on The Paper Players blog and it’s all about showcasing those sentiments……. I knew the stamp set I wanted to use wasn’t sure about the type of medium I was going to use to get the look I wanted. I pulled out the Mama Elephant Botanic Hello stamp set. I stamped the image on Strathmore Bristol paper used my Zig Clean color markers to color the flowers……… The Bristol paper and Zigs are a perfect match. I used a few markers but to get the almost sunset look on two of the flowers I blended the orange and pink on top of each other…. not so bad right. I added a little sparkle on the Hello with my Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen. You see a little bit of the shimmer on the Hello it’s a soft shimmery look. Happy TGIF eve and I’ll catch you later.

Happy TGIF eve!….. yeah! It seems like a long week to me work is great. I’m finding my groove at the new job………. I’m 5 weeks in and it’s been an exciting and very demanding few weeks. I’m back into the groove of things and I’m getting back on track of working on my goals that I have for myself…. I’ll let you in on the secret in a few weeks. This evening I decided to tag along over on the Tag You’re It blog I haven’t played this one in a while. I pulled out that cute Hey Chick set by “Stamp in Up” I think those are the coolest chicks I’ve ever seen……….
I stamped the image on Neenah Solar White cardstock with MFT Black Licorice ink. The tag was cut with a Lil Inker Designs Stitched Tags die. I colored the chick with copic markers. I wanted the chick to look like he was standing behind a wired fence so I masked off my chick and lightly stenciled the honeycomb background using my clarity stencil brush with a Smokey shadow ink from Paper Trey Ink. I then put some of the ink on a clear stamp block and mist it a little to get the ink platters on the tag. I used various May Arts ribbon the red I wanted to give it a straggly look to mimic the chicks straggly hair. Hope you like my take on the inspiration tag.
Crafty Supplies:
Stamp Set: Hey Chick (SU) Sale-A-Bration
Ink: Smokey Shadow (Paper Trey Ink)
Accessories: Various May Arts Ribbons
Tools: Big Shot, AnyTime Tags Die Set 2 (Lil Inker Designs), Clear Stamp Block,
