Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek #4

Hi friends, this is the last day of sneak peeks which means that tomorrow is the big day - get those shopping cards ready! But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, these are the stamps being previewed today: Leaf trio - Chrysanthemum November Flower - Poinsettia December Flower - of the Month (What a pane)

Remember, full reveals and samples can be seen on Lori's blog - Clearly iStamp.

Here is my card for Leaf Trio... this is a great little trio of leaves and I had fun making this card. Can you see the dots in the background of my designer paper? I used bubble wrap to create that look. I like it :)

I also like the fact that I don't have to color these leaves if I don't want to. They are quite versatile and you can add them with other stamps or use them independently.

Stamp of the month - What a Pane

Well, I have to say these were definitely not a pain to do, but were really fun. This is going to be a great stamp set to add to your collection. All you have to do is have a minimum order of $50 and you will get this stamp set for free.

Here is my 2nd card. I love the clean look and all the white on it.

Chrysanthemum November Flower

I see this flower and I think fall... who doesn't love everything associated with the autumn. For this card I stamped the flower with versamark and used gold embossing powder on watercolor paper. I then used a waterbrush and markers to color it in.

My next card is a complete contrast to the first one. I love combining black and pink and thought it turned out pretty this way. I'm also all about easy and simple and that is what this card is. I used Versamark and clear embossing powder and then inked the entire image with pink dye ink. I then used the text stamp that comes with this set and stamped it over the entire image with more pink dye ink.

Poinsettia December Flower

This is my last stamp set I'll be sharing with you... phewww... thank for sticking with me :) Another favorite flower of mine... the poinsettia. I love the red ones the best and so I ended up with 2 cards that used red, but next time I promised myself I would make a card with pink or the pale green pointsettia.

Ok, I love this card... I think it was one of my favorites and it was very easy to do. What can I say except that I do love to emboss. I used gold embossing powder and stamped my flower several times. I then cut out the sections that I wanted, spritzed them and wrinkled them out and then let them dry. I then just layered them over my stamped image.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And here is my last card. Again, I went with red, but I used my Copics to color this in and then cut the flower in 4 sections.


Wow, thanks for coming and remember that everythign will be available tomorrow - yay! Don't forget to visit these fellow DT members for even more sneak peeks.

Love everything you designed! Using the bubblewrap on your background is very creative -- you need to do a little tutorial on how you did that!
