Remember When Card

Hello Stampers!  Here is my 3rd card for the SUDSOL Blog Tour #9!

It's called Remember When!

Stampin' Up Supplies:
Stamps - Papillon Potpourri, Word Play
CS - Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
DSP - Fan Fair
Inks - Island Indigo, Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette, Crumb Cake
Punch - Elegant Butterfly
Framelit - Apothecary Accents
Essential Paper Piercing Pack & Paper Piercer
Jewels - Basic Pearls
Buttons - Vintage Faceted
Linen Thread

I love how this card turned out to be antiqued. By using the Crumb Cake ink around the edges of everything it really helped it look more vintage.  The butterflies just pop off of the page.  This card looks and feels so delicate!

Hope you Enjoy!

Forever & Always Card

Front of Card

Hello Friends!  Today's project is a wedding card that I did for another challenge.  This is called Forever & Always!

Stampin' Up Supplies:
Stamps - Papaya Collage, Forever with You, Loving Thoughts, Petite Pairs
CS - Pool Party, Midnight Muse
DSP - Comfort Cafe
Inks - Midnight Muse, Raspberry Ripple, Gumball Green
Markers - Raspberry Ripple, Gumball Green
Emboss Folder - Square Lattice
Punch - Curly Label
Crochet Trim - Victoria
Ink Refill - Raspberry Ripple
Jewels - Basic Rhinestones
Misc - Blender Pen, Dimensionals

I wanted to use the Crochet Trim but wanted it a different color to match my card.  So I used an empty button/brad container and added some warm water and a couple of drops of the Ink Refill, Raspberry Ripple.  I stirred to make sure it was dissolved and then added the Crochet Trim.  I let it sit for a few minutes and then removed and dried on paper towels.  Once I was happy with the color I then took a hot iron to it to set in the color and to dry it so I could add it to the project.  You can adjust the color and intensity by using less drops or more drops, and by how long you allow the trim to soak.  The longer you let it soak the more intense the color will be.  You can adjust as you need for your project.

Hope you Enjoy!
