Spectrum Noir Harmony Opaque Inks

Several months go I received a couple of testers of the new Spectrum Noir opaque inks. I guess these inks will be available everywhere soon! I hope so.

So  Peony Bouquet stencil was the perfect crafty supply to give them a try.

These inks are creamy and when applying them on the paper you will feel like if you were applying clear sticky ink but these inks are loaded with colour.

You can use them on dark paper too!

They are slow drying so they are designed to do embossing as well.

So I made a couple of panels with this bold inks also to share bold sentiments from Miss You Missi,  the stamp set is so gorgeous.

Hi there, exam time here in the UK is stressful for youngsters and just after the Christmas holidays when the kids get back to school they will have to sit their exams.

Arg! bye-bye, Christmas!!!

Thinking about my niece and nephew and having at hand some fun Simon Says stamp supplies I made 3 super simple cards to share creativity with you.

So I  stretched the use of our crafty supplies to make "encouragement" cards for pupils/students or "thank you teacher/ tutors" cards!!


From Christmas Tree to Pencils

I die cut a front panel using the larger die in SSS Wonky Rectangles die set and I stamped it with red ink and  Deco Diamonds Background stamp. I added colours to the bubbles using Copic Ciao Markers from the Set B.

I  added a gold metallic thread to the bubbles and I tied the threads at the top securing the ends behind the panel using tape. Then I thought the card needed a bit more of fun and  I die cut a bow out of Scarlet Organza Mirror Card Satin Effect and  I also curled up thin stripes of the same cardstock to add a fun decorative element to this card.  To make the paper curls or hoops, I simply wrapped the paper tightly around the long tip of my pick tool. The bow was made using dies from Nail Polish Bottle die set by Honey Bee Stamps.

To embellish I used rhinestones and Red Nuvo drops and I also applied Nuvo Shimmer Pen over the images to add sparkle.

That's all for today.  I hope you enjoy this project!!

Supplies

For the card above  I used Derwent watercolour paper ( ivory). Brusho Brilliant Red and Yellow. I also used  Oh, Hello There die to add the sentiment.

To add a decorative element to this card I  used SSS Tickle Breeze die  and I  die cut the panel sprinkled with the blue Brushocolours.  The sentiment was made using  SSS Thanks Die

Can you see those tiny butterflies popping up over the animals? I think they add so much fun to this super cute scene using Best Friends Stamp Set by Simon Says Stamp.

To stamp the trees in the background I used   Into the Woods Again, a stamp by  Clearly Besotted. The butterflies are from Curious Kittens stamp set by Honey Bee Stamps.
