WOYWW- 597 - A sigh of relief- Cards and Cutting abound!

Hey Y'all Robyn here, breathing many sighs of relief.
I've never made so many cards ever!
I treated myself to a new die cut machine, and don't know why I waited so long!
Exciting news is even tho Suzanne is no longer retailing her own stamps and products,
they live on and this week is a release of new dies!
More on that here.
Painting and pasting has kept me sane these last few years.
WYOWW friends get you thorough times of stress too!
Thanks to all of you for visiting and inviting me to your place!

Pick a Stick Challenge - February 2016

February has brought cold winds 
and 
The challenge is to create a "page" using all of the prompts chosen in order.
 My ATC using all the elements
front
and back
  1.  My die cut, Calligraphic Elements I, from A Way With Words By Elizabeth Craft Designs is freezer paper used as a mask, watercolored and then peeled off.
  2. "The flourish moving through my heart can open it or rip it apart"
  3. No foil, so I used gold leaf bits, adhered with DecoArt Decou-Page matte, my new fave medium.
  4. Cut the tiny heart with a hole punch.
  5. Rubbed DecoArt Metallic Luster on a metal charm and adhered with the Deco Page- seems to be hold well!
  6. No gel prints, so I cut the little hearts from my never ending stash of paste papers! Added a drop of Triple Thick for gloss.
  7. The napkin( the weird blobs on the top and bottom and on to the back of the card) had a flower print when I put them on- yes more Decou-page.Added a bit to the back of the cut out heart.
  8. I got a bit carried away. Some of all the above !
  9. Calligraphic Wings by Quietfire. Wish they stood out more- should have embossed them. Every heart deserves wings!
  10. Working to bring out the flower on the napkin, I added paint and drew in it. Oh well. It is what it is!
I'm sticking to my ATC , and them journaling page format. It works for me.
The inspiration of all in the group is worth the price of participation !

Quietfire Design V-day Digital Cards and New (to me) Deco Arts Products



I enjoy making Valentines day cards and the new cutting files from Quietfire Design's Suzanne Cannon in the Silhouette Store do not disappoint , and they are on sale!
Very different looks can be created with this file.
Heart Tree Card
15 minutes                                                                                          A bit longer!                                  

On the mat
The above file just needs to be ungrouped, cut and pasted.


I'm a new member of the DecoArt Helping Artist and Blogger Outreach Program.
DecoArt sent me some new(to me) products to play with, and I used 

I'm in love with this paste. Rub it on almost anything to get a true metallic shine.

Then I messed about to get a very different feel with the same file, the patterned paper card above.
A guy card?

The hearts are cut from Elizabeth Craft Designs Velvet Paper.

 This Brave Girl Card began as white Neenah and  was rubbed with a cloth with the Gold Metallic luster.
A fine line of Triple Thick Gloss was brushed on the edge and sprinkled with Gold Glamour Dust.
I like the distressed look of the edge.

is A Way With Words Die cut from the ECD Velvet paper. 
 Thinking the Triple Thick was like Glossy accents I used it to addd dimension to my message.
It doesn't stand up as well as GA, and clouded a bit.
I used the Decou-page to adhere  the messages. It holds well, dries quickly and the matte finish disappears if it gets where you don't want it.

Here the Danke die cut was cut from freezer paper and ironed on as a resist.
 Applying the Triple thick from a fine point helped it to set up better.

The back, embellished with the Metallic pastes and stamped in VersaFine.

 Glittered glue dots and tape, messages in Triple thick and the card sealed in Decou-Page

I hope you will try the Quietfire Design and DecoArt products to create some love for V- Day and every day!
I'll be using more of the DecoArt products in days to come, so if you have a specific product or technique you want featured let me know.

It's the thought that counts- A Way With Words- New Quietfire Design Dies


I had no idea how much moving would affect me.
I thought as soon as I would unpack, life would return to normal.
Not!
Normal has changed, and that's a good thing.
If you haven't gotten a card from me recently, I'm glad you are reading this one, and knowing I am thinking of you and appreciate all your prayers and good wishes in this time of transition for me.

The good news is Quietfire Design is now having their new line of dies
manufactured by 
ElizabethCraft Designs.

I have a step out post today over at 
and this post will bring you up to date on some of what I have been up to using the new dies.

15 minute wonders! using scrap backgrounds and Shimmer Sheetz

Post Cards with new stamps and Peel Off Stickers

Birthday cards.
I have to make 30 for my Women's Bible Circle 
so you'll be seeing a LOT more of this die!

I don't like to be sick or make get well cards either.
Luck of the Draw, I got Get Well Soon as my introduction die in this release!


I'm feeling more comfortable in my new design space and have found almost everything-except maybe my mind!!

Thanks for visiting and please leave you comments and questions and share your creations with the new dies!
