Life is a Song - DT Inspiration

Morning all
Julie here with a quick and simple masculine card I made for the challenge at Cardz4Guyz using the Life is a Song stamp set.


I've use the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch  for this card layout, quite  simple, perfect for the musical man in your life. Just a strip of musical score inked with Old Paper DI popped behind a couple of black edged panels of linen textured white card and the sentiment from the Life is a song stamp set. 
The actual 1st line should read Life is a song, love is the ... but I masked that part out when I stamped it, then added the large music text and the finishing phrase. A few tiny notes from the set stamped in the spaces complete. Just a bit of Old Paper DI to match the score and a black mount to 3 sides and jobs a good 'un!
So just as I said a quick and simple masculine card.

Have a good day and don't forget to get on board for the blog hop and give away for the July release, you've got until midnight on the 3rd August 2019 to comment.

Thanks for reading.

Introducing... WILD and Animal Print Stencils

Hey!


Welcome to Day 4 and the last of the July 2019 Release product introductions.

I've been waiting for this day for AGES and now this is the fun part where myself, my guest designer and the design team get to show you LOTS of inspiration! You get to see all the sneak peeks I've shared over the past two days in action on cards & projects over the next few days leading up to 26th, July, Release Day!

Today we are introducing a clear stamp set called Wild and 3 Animal Print Stencils, Giraffe, Tiger & Zebra.

Let's have a look at one of the cards I made using Wild clear stamp set paired with the Tiger Print Stencil...



For this card I have used the Tiger Print Stencil paired with the WILD Thing! sentiment. The stencil colours the black areas on my card. 

I wanted it to be this way, so that you could create beautiful ink blended backgrounds and apply the animal print over the top. But with all products, there are so many ways to use this stencil as you will see in the DT blog hop below.


The WILD is stamped and coloured with Copic markers and I also fussy cut the letters out and adhered them with foam adhesive. The letters are really bold, so fussy cutting is fairly easy! 

That's all I am sharing here, but as usual my AWESOME Design Team and wonderful Guest Designer this month, Keren Baker have worked their magic with today's products, so be sure to hop along & see them...

Re-introducing Nautical Treasures AND Introducing Background Blocks Nautical Stripes, Anchors & Fleur De Lis Stencils

Hey!


Welcome to Day 3 of the July 2019 Release product introductions.

I've been waiting for this day for AGES and now this is the fun part where myself, my guest designer and the design team get to show you LOTS of inspiration! You get to see all the sneak peeks I've shared over the past two days in action on cards & projects over the next few days leading up to 26th, July, Release Day!

Today we are re-introducing a previously released and retired clear stamp set, Nautical Treasures. Plus, I have designed some new products to go perfectly with it! Introducing the newest Background Block, Nautical Stripes and 2 new stencil designs, Anchors and Fleur De Lis.

Let's have a look at some of these products in action and I thought I would start with a rainbow number!



I recently purchased the Taylor Expressions Blender Brushes and as they are rainbow coloured, one for each colour you blend, I couldn't resist giving them a go with the Fleur De Lis Stencil to create a rainbow look. 

The brushes are perfectly sized in that I didn't have to mask off much of the design either, so it didn't take long to add each colour. 




I then added a Lagoon coloured sailing ship from Nautical Treasures to the card and a simple sentiment from Simply Said Blocks stamped in Coral Berry. 

That's all I have to share here, but hopefully it has whet your creative inspiration to hop along with us!

As usual my AWESOME Design Team and wonderful Guest Designer this month, Keren Baker have worked their magic with today's products, so be sure to hop along & see them...
