Let's Make Fun 'N Fast Fabulous Fall Foliage Foiling!

Hi again!

I'm back today as part of the Craft Collab's "Favorite Fall Colors" Hop!  There are around 25 of us, so get out your drinks and snacks!  You can find the complete hop list below.


When I was at Stampaway a few weeks ago, I did a make 'n take at the Creative Visions booth where we crinkled foil and layered on toner diecuts.  It's easy and fun, so I kind of built on that to show you several techniques in this YouTube tutorial.  I hope you will consider subscribing!

Here is a larger view of the project:




Aren't those leaves gorgeous???   The supplies I used are linked below (afil) and I really do appreciate you using those links!

Here's the tutorial link:

A Blog Named Hero's "Stretch Your Stamp" Challenge!

Hello and Welcome Back!

At first this photo may appear "puzzling."  Let me explain how I made it (and my trials/errors too!)  The August "A Blog Named Hero" Challenge is "Stretch Your Stamps."  I took it quite literally this time:)

The supplies I used are linked below (afil) and I am so grateful when you shop with those links!  I don't get rich, but it helps with supplies so I can show you more free projects!




I stamped/heat embossed the sentiment on 110# Neenah card stock for sturdiness.  Then, diecut a circle mask and placed over it.  Next, I used Versamark ink and stamped the background, heat embossing in gold detail powder.

Then I colored with Tombow markers some of the background and die cut it with the puzzle die.  

Here is the finished puzzle:
