Do you notice the difference? The POP of color is ON the Designer Series Paper! I used my Coastal Cabana (darkest one) Blendabilities Marker to color the Designer Series Paper! I had so much fun making these…as you can see with the 5 samples rather than just 1. 😉 I can’t wait to color in the flowers and other images in the Designer Series Paper! I LOVE IT!

Don’t forget about the Buy 3, Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper Special that ends on July 31st! While I love other Designer Series Paper Packs too, you could get 4 of the Back to Black Paper and have endless possibilities with your Blendabilities! 

Also, don’t forget about my Anniversary Special!

Happy Colorin’

The Blendabilities are HERE!!!!

Blended Bloom Blendabilities, www.LaurasStampPad.com

The Blendabilities are available starting TODAY!!!!! I’m so excited for you all because these new alcohol markers are lots of fun!!!! What are Blendabilities you ask? These are alcohol based markers (the regular markers are water based) and they come in packs of three (light, medium and dark). This is so you can blend the colors and create an amazing shade of color or that watercolor look! I’ll admit I’m not sure I have the technique down to an art yet but they are still super fun! The following colors are available starting today – Cherry Cobbler – #130995, Coastal Cabana – #131000, Daffodil Delight – #130998, Old Olive – #130999, Pumpkin Pie – #130997, Rich Razzleberry – #131003, and the Skin Tone Assortment – #129370! You can also start ordering the Memento Ink Pad & Refill which you will need to use to stamp your image in. This is a water based ink (similar to using Stazon which is a alcohol based ink for watercoloring). You can start ordering the Color Lifter as well. This is a marker which will lift (lighten) the area you wish. So if you color in a vase and would like it to look lighter along the left side to create a 3-D effect, you would take your color lifter and color a line along that left side. As a Demonstrator, I was able to pre-order these and here are a few of my creations! The one above was using the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities but I layered it onto Real Red Cardstock!

This one was created with the Rich Razzleberry Blendabilities and I layered it onto Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzleberry cardstock.

This was one of the first ones I created and I feel like I got better the more I played with them. This one uses the Coastal Cabana Blendabilities and I layered it onto Pool Party and used my Chevron Embossing Folder! Can’t wait to play more with other images! I used the Blended Bloom Stamp Set in all of these!

Silver Doilies!!!!

Posted on

Hello There Silver Doily, www.LaurasStampPad.com

I love this card for so many reasons…..the amazing Elegant Eggplant color, the purple Rhinestones, the Silver Embossed Tea Doily, and the brushed edges!!!! It is just amazing! My card base was done in Wisteria Wonder and then I brushed Elegant Eggplant on the edges of the Whisper White cardstock with my Sponge Daubers (love them)!!! For the Silver Doily, I took my VersaMark Pad and pressed it into the Tea Lace Doily all over. Then I poured Silver Embossing Powder all over it and heated it with my Heat Tool to set it! It becomes so shiny and fabulous! It does curl along the edges which I loved for a little texture and 3-D look but it eventually flattened out more so no worries if you want it nice and flat. I stamped my greeting from the Hello There Hostess Stamp in Elegant Eggplant and added a few flowers from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack. For the adorable purple Rhinestones….you can use your Blendabilities to color them (available July 1)! LOVE IT! Now you can have matching pearls and rhinestones on your project! Here is an up-close look at the card!
