Snark alert with So Suzy Stamps

Snark alert! I haven’t used my snarky stamps for a while (way too long if you ask me), so I directly created three snarky cards 😀 A few days ago I found a pretty paper pack at a garage sale. I love combining patterned paper to create cards, especially snarky ones. I started with cutting a few of the papers. Then I picked the ones that I wanted to be at the top and stamped the sentiment using my Misti. For this card, I cut a little banner to stamp one part of the sentiment onto it. Then I stamped …

Video: June Inspiration with So Suzy Stamps in Water Colors

Yay, it’s inspiration day over at the So Suzy Stamps blog. I always love to see all the amazing design team projects within one post. For the June inspiration I grabbed my water colors again. How can you not add bright colors to Olesya’s gorgeous flower stamps?! Also I love to watch the color move inside the water 😛 To share my love of water coloring, here is the project video for my card. Enjoy and let me know what you think 🙂 Here are a few close up pictures. Click on the picture to enlarge it. Thanks for stopping …

Ink Blending with the Misti and So Suzy Stamps Ink Bites

I’m up at the So Suzy blog today with something that I tried for the first time. Well, not really for the first time. I saw this technique for ink blending with the Misti at Creativation and I tried it using my Distress Inks, but today I wanted to give it a shot using the So Suzy Stamps Ink Bites. So I prepared my Mini Misti and inked up small areas of the Butterfly Tree stamp. Because the magnets hold the paper at the same place, I was able to ink one area at a time and stamp exactly at …

So Suzy Stamps with Jane Davenport water colors

Happy Mother’s Day everyone. I bet we are all mothers of some sort, for example I’m the mother of a little fur bay, the mother of dragons (I have gazillion plush dragons) and mother of my own ideas (yikes, cheesy… LOL). For this special occasion I had to create something with flowers and such. I love watching all these videos were someone is heat embossing a floral background and then water coloring it. If you follow The Ton you have definitely seen it. I don’t have a floral background stamp, so I made my own (and will never do it …

How to create leaves on vellum with So Suzy Stamps

I’m still in aaaw with Olesya’s amazing designs. She’s so creative and it’s great to be able to play with her art. Today I used her Open Leaves design to create leaves on vellum. I started by blending Distress Inks onto the background. Normally I use orange and red colors, but this time I forced myself to a different combination 😛 I used the Ranger blending tool and went back and forth with the different colors till they looked nice and blended. Then I die cut the piece with a stitched rectangle die and splattered some water and some sparkle …

Water Lilies in Water Colors with So Suzy Stamps

So Suzy Stamps water lilies in water colors

Welcome to a new blog post for So Suzy Stamps. The new stamps were just released and I’m in love! Did you know that some of them were designed by our very own Olesya? Amazing, isn’t it? Today I was in the mood for some water coloring, again 😛 These stamps just look so stunning in water colors. I started by coloring the blossom stamp with my Zig markers. After the stamp was really saturated I stamped directly onto the water color paper. Because the Zig markers are water soluble, I was able to move the color with a water …

We have another celebration, woohoo!!! So Suzy Stamps is now 3 years old. It’s already able to walk, spoke its first word and left the first Crayon marks on our walls. What an amazing time we have. As part of our birthday celebrations we want to introduce you to the new release. And there is something very special about it. Our very own Olesya designed them. Isn’t she amazing? So much talent, wow. That’s why I’m extra excited to show you what I created with them. I started by stamping the flower several times onto water color paper. I knew …

Video: My First Galaxy Sky Background with So Suzy Stamps

I got inspired by Justine’s amazing astronaut card and her galaxy sky background. I have never tried it before, because I thought it’s too difficult. After watching her creating this cute card, I just had to try it and I’m glad I did. It’s not the prettiest galaxy sky background in the world, but I tried something new 😀 I also let the camera run while inking everything. Enjoy! What do you think about the Nuvo embossing powder? Is that neat or what? 🙂 Don’t forget that So Suzy is celebrating her birthday. That means you get special treatment this …

Throw on a Crown for Snark Madness

Hello, is it me you’re looking for *sing* 😛 LMAO, I love my snarky mood swings. Welcome to Snark Madness, aka a new snarky project, this time a mixed media piece on a wood panel. I was at a local art store not too long ago and picked some of them up. I started by applying two layers of clear Gesso to the wood panel and picking my colors for the background. I decided to go with a yellow, orange, red theme, so I applied a thick layer of yellow paint first. While the yellow was still somewhat wet, I …

How to use Distress Oxide and So Suzy Stamps in your Art Journal

So Suzy Stamps art journal page made with Distress Oxide and a little imagination

Oooooh, I had a little fun with Distress Oxide and So Suzy Stamps this weekend. I was in a play mood and came up with this colorful Spring page. After I picked up the Distress Oxides in my local craft store, I just had to break them open and create some beautiful backgrounds. I smooshed the ink onto my craft mat, spritzed some water on top and then dragged several tags through it. After they were dry, I repeated these steps till I had the texture I wanted. When I was done with the tags, I spotted my art journal …
