Send It Clear with Clear Scraps and Ruby Rock-it

Hey everyone!  Hope you are having a great week.  Summer hear has been fun so far and I am dreading how quickly the time is flying.  I am not, repeat NOT ready for this fall, so those of you who keep posting on Facebook that there are only 190 more days till Christmas.  EEEEK  Stop it!  LOL

Anyway, today I wanted to share with you a simple little card I made using the  Clear Scraps Deco Send it Clear Card and the Rustic Charm collection from Ruby Rock-it

To add even more dimension and texture to the back ground paper I used a few of my favorite Mascils and some embossing paste and gel medium.

Step 1:  Spread gel medium over patterned paper using a palette knife and the 6" Chevron Mascil

 

Step 2:  When that dries, use embossing paste over the 6"Damask Mascal to add even more interest.

 

Step 3:  Add additional smears of embossing paste to add a bit more texture around the edges if desired.

If you like, you can add a few flecks of white mists or other colors to really enhance the texture.

I simply adore the colors in this collection, and the lovely pearl finish on these papers make them extra special.  Be sure and check out the Clear Scraps blog to see all the beautiful projects made with Ruby Rock-it and Clear Scraps this week.

Hugs.

Bonjour - Send it Clear

Hi everyone!  Today I want to share with you a simple card I made using one of the  Half Scallop, Send it Clear Cards from Clear Scraps.

I used some older papers and one of Julie Nuttings stamps from Prima, a beautiful bloom, some lace and my trusty Stazon to create this card.

Don't you love the way the acrylic allows you to peek through to the next layer?  Don't forget though, when stamping on acrylic go just a bit lighter with the pressure...it doesn't take much and since the inks don't absorb.

These Send It Clear cards make everything just a bit more special, and, by allowing little bits and pieces of the layers to show through you can create stunning effects.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Hugs.

Send it Clear - Clear Scraps

Hey everyone!  Hope you are having a great day.  The week is half over and I am already looking forward to the weekend.  Not sure why, because it is going to involve lots of cleaning and organizing, but...

Anyway.  Today I wanted to share with you a project I made for Clear Scraps.  Did you know that Clear Scraps makes the most beautiful clear acrylic cards?  And in such beautiful shapes.  I loved the Half Fancy Send it Clear Card....

I used some of the Something Blue ATC cards I had from the Prima Art'Venture and a few chipboard and flowers from my stash.  

These Send it Clear cards are just the sweetest things.  I can't wait to create more.

And, on another note.....
