It's pink!

A new day, a new card and a new post 😃  I'm going on a little holiday tomorrow so I will be gone from my inks and stamps and papers for 6 days! I'll miss them like crazy 😂 I've had this idea for a card project in my head for some days now and I'm not one to write down ideas when they arrive so today I just had to do it before I forgot it.  This is my Gina/Rina-combo card!  Rina Krupsky, the daughter of Gina K, posted a video on YouTube a couple of weeks ago where she made aged wood background using a mini ink cube. I thought that looked easy, but didn't try it out until today. It is easy, but getting it straight was another thing...😂  First I cut a 1 inch strip from some cardstock and lined it up with my white panel. Then I just dragged the ink pad onto the cardstock as I moved the strip.  This is the result when the dragging was done.

A shimmery birthday card!

Welcome to my blog! This card is bursting with shimmer! The pictures doesn't do it justice.  I used Nuvo Shimmer Powders, have no idea what colors I used, I just went nuts!  The shimmer powders is so much fun, but a bit messy, but the results is so amazing.  I used watercolor paper from Tim Holtz and the amount of water that cardstock could take is crazy. The diecut is Streaming Heart die from Simon Says Stamp.  The scallop die is from a die set I got ages ago from Amazon.  I didn't take pictures during this cause I did the background a couple of days ago and didn't think about it.  Thanks for stopping by, come visit me at my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/charlottewold79/

Watercoloring with Distress Oxide inks

Hello! This will be my very first real blog post and I have no idea how it will go.  Today it's Norway's Constitution Day and I spent it doing what I love the most, making cards!  So here is the result of that 😊 This is what I started with. I stamped the flowers with Distress Oxide Tattered Rose and the leaves with Cracked Pistachio. I used Altenew's Wallpaper Art stamp set.  I'm no expert in coloring, definetly not with watercoloring, but I have to say, I have improved! At least I think so myself.  This is all the colors i used and yes, I used them all! 😂 And as you can see, a regular Distress Ink was used since I don't have Forest Moss in Oxide.  This is the products I used, as I said Altenew's Wallpaper Art stamp set, Pretty Pink Posh Thoughtful Greetings stamp set and sequins from Little Things from Lucy's cards (sorry for the glare in the plastic). By the way, totally forgot to place Tonic Studio Nuvo Glitter Drops in Gold
