Tim Holtz Flower Field w/ Alcohol Pearl Backgrounds!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s start by creating some beautiful backgrounds using the Tim Holtz Alcohol Pearl Inks! We will be using the Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink Dura Bright in Black Opaque Matte for our inking surface. This synthetic paper will allow the inks, mixatives and blending solution to blend nicely and easily. In the video I will talk more about the different effects and looks that you can get using these alcohol pearl inks.

We will then add a bit of iCraft Deco Foil in gold and silver to these backgrounds. This will also give some increased sparkle and elegance to the backgrounds.

Next we can die cut the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Flower Field Die in some heavyweight black cardstock. And then we will grab a sentiment from the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Bold Text #1 Die Set which will say “Make a Wish”. We will die cut the sentiment out of this black cardstock and then we will place the letters back into place using the Tim Holtz idea-ology Kraft-stock Metallic Classics in gold and silver. I’ll also show you a few little tricks for easily placing these letters back into place!

Let’s add a beautiful butterfly to each of our cards using the Tim Holtz idea-ology Botanical Layers!

Finally, let’s add a few sparkly gems for added interest and dimension. We will be using the Pinkfresh Studio Metallic Pearls in Sparkling Champagne and the Buttons Galore and More Jewel Embellishments in Silver!

Tim Holtz Papercut Cafe Card w/ Acrylic Block Stamping!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a fun background for our card using a round acrylic stamping block! This is so much fun and so easy to do! With this technique you’ll be able to create lots of backgrounds in a very short period of time!

We will be inking up the round acrylic block with the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks in Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold, Wild Honey, and Ripe Persimmon. Now we can spritz the ink with a bit of water and then press onto the cardstock. I like to let it sit for a second or two…this allows the ink to make a nice transfer. I will talk about this a bit more…and show you some tips and techniques in the video!

Now for a bit more interest, let’s do some stenciling using the Stamperia Create Happiness Stencil using the Gathered Twigs ink. To bring everything together we can spatter this background using some white ink and then the Gathered Twigs ink again!

We can also add this same ink around the edges of this panel using a blending brush. Now we can die cut a panel from this background using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Vintage Label dies. We will die cut this label and ink around the edges and then place it back onto the card by popping it up with some foam tape. This will highlight our coffee cup a bit more!

Let’s go ahead and die cut the coffee cup and all of its layers using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Papercut Cafe’ dies. For the layering papers we will be using the Scrapbook.com Smooth Cardstock Paper Pad in the Warms. In the video I will show you how these dies are labeled and how easily you can die cut and assemble the pieces of the cup and steam.

Let’s start layering the card with a pretty floral panel from the Tim Holtz idea-ology Backdrops Volume #1 Paper Pad and we can add a coordinating velvet ribbon from the Tim Holtz idea-ology Velvet Trims Warms collection.

Finally, we can add a few gems using the Tim Holtz Halloween Droplets!

Distress Sprays vs Distress Ink Pads w/ Layering Stencils

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s have some fun with our Distress Sprays, Distress Ink Pads and Layering Stencils! We will be using the beautiful Layered Peony stencil from the Sizzix Layered Stencils Collection. This is a four part layering stencil. Please note that this is designed to be used with the Sizzix Stencil & Stamp Tool. You will notice that these 4 stencils have two holes punched at the top of the stencil….this is so that you can easily line up each layer of your stencils on the pegs of the stamping tool. This tool will ensure perfect alignment every time! However, you can easily use these stencils without the Sizzix Stencil & Stamp Tool and I will be showing you that today.

In order to ensure that no inks will leak underneath the stencils while we are using the Distress Sprays, we will be spraying them with the Pixie Spray. This will give the stencils a sticky back and allow the stencils to lay flat and adhere to the paper temporarily while we do the spraying.

Let’s create a beautiful pink peony background using the Distress Sprays in Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry and Festive Berries. You will want to heat set the colors after each layer of the stenciling. This background will have a beautiful watercolor effect!

For the second card we will be using the Distress Oxide Ink Pads in the same colors that we used in the sprays. This background will be a bit more detailed and crisp.

I wanted to give you a few different ways to use these layering stencils to get a completely different look! This will hopefully help you stretch your stencils for some interesting backgrounds.

We will add a beautiful silver metallic butterfly from the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Scribbly Butterflies Die Set. For paper we will use the Tim Holtz idea-ology Kraft-Stock – Metallic Classics.

Next we can create our sentiment label usng the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Vintage Labels Dies. These dies not only die cut the shape but also emboss a beautiful edge which adds lots of dimension and interest. The “Thinking of You” sentiment is from the Scrapbook.com Cards for Kindness Stamps – Handmade Essentials Set. We will emboss the sentiment using the Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

Let’s go ahead and create the 6″x6″ card base and add the silver layer and then the pink peony background for each of our cards..

Finally, we can add some sparkle with the pretty Pinkfresh Studio Ombre Glitter Drops in Twighlight!

Tim Holtz Mixed Media – Blossom Vignette Box

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

I’ve got a really special mixed media project to show you today using the most beautiful floral die set from Tim Holtz called the Sizzix Thinlits Blossom Die! This very large floral and leaves set is going to be just perfect for our vignette box project! I’ll show you how to color and layer this flower and leaf for extra dimension.

I thought it would be fun to do the coloring using the Tim Holtz Distress Crayons in a variety of pinks and purples. I’ll give you a little tip for being able to easily color with these crayons! We will also be using the crayons to add color to some of the metal embellishments!

The box will be the base of this project and is from the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Vignetter Boxes – Squares set.

We will be using a ton of Tim Holtz products today including the quote chips, droplets, ribbons and bows, word tags, velvet trim, vintage flair, odds and ends, and butterflies! By adding all of these unique items we can give our project lots of interest and dimension. This is a great time to dig through your own personal stash of embellishments to se what you may already have to add to your project!

Let’s also grab some beautiful paper from the Tim Holtz Abandoned Paper Pad. This will have some of the pinks and purples that we need to make this flower pop!

For a bit of a metallic look on various pieces of this design as well as the box itself, we will be using the Tim Holtz Distress Foundry Wax in Sterling. I’ll talk about this product in some additional detail in the video, since there are a few important things you should know about this very special and unique product!

In this video I will show you lots of fun techniques and ideas for adding interest to your mixed media projects! So let’s go ahead and get started!!!

Alcohol Pearl Ink Blending – Spring Floral Slimline Card!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a pretty slimline card using the Scrapbook.com Spring Floral Die! This slimline die is just gorgeous! It cuts out flowers, vines, and butterflies which can be used to create a second card. So it’s sort of a two for one die!

We will die cut this from some white 100lb cardstock and for the background we will be using some beautiful Tim Holtz Alcohol Pearl Inks!

Let’s start our background using some Ranger Alcohol Yupo Paper. This will allow our inks to blend more easily. We will use a combination of pretty colors.

First, we will add some alcohol blending solution to the Yupo paper and then we can add several drops of inks in a variety of colors. Now we can move this ink around using the Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink – Air Blower. This is very easy to use … just squeeze and it will easily move the ink around the paper. I’ll show you exactly how to do this in today’s video!

We can cut down the slimline panel and add our alcohol ink background and then add a layer of aqua colored cardstock. This will make the colors of the background pop out a bit more!

Now let’s layer this onto a slimline card in white 100lb cardstock.

Next we can add a “hello” sentiment using the Scrapbook.com Cards for Kindness Stamp Set. For the sentiment we will stamp it with Versamark Watermark Ink and emboss it with some white embossing powder onto some vellum paper.

Let’s use one of the white butterflies that was cut out of the die and add a second one with some vellum paper and glue these two together for added dimension.

Finally, we can add a light blue heart shaped gem from the Dress My Craft Heart Droplet Collection in Pastel Blue in the center of the butterfly.

Tim Holtz Gentlemen Cards – Part 2 (Lost Shadow Ink, Embossing Glaze, Bold Text Dies, Stencils)

Hello and welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today’s video will be Part 2 of the Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen Card Series! Part 1 was a Mixed Media Card using the Tim Holtz Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and so much more!  I will link Part 1 here if you would like to check that out:  Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen – Part 1 (Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and more!) 

Let’s get started by creating a graphic background using a set of three stencils from Pinkfresh Studio called the Geo Arch. There is a Hot Foil Plate that coordinates with these stencils. I will list and link that below, however, we will only be using the stencils today.

To get started we will be stamping the background with some script text in a permanent black ink. Then we will do our stenciling. For colors we will be using the brand new Distress Oxide Ink in the Lost Shadow for stencil #1, Black Soot for stencil #2 and either Lumberjack Plaid or Uncharted Mariner for the pop of color!

Next we will apply the coordinating Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Glaze to each of the cards. Remember that this is a translucent powder so that will allow the text underneath to show through! I will give you a few tricks for embossing only one layer of stenciling.

We can die cut the two gentlemen, cane and umbrella several times with the TH Black Heavystock. Let’s layer these up to give these men some added dimension.

For the sentiments on both the outside and inside of the card we will be using the TH Sizzix Thinlits Bold Text #1. Once we have die cut the sentiments out of the white 100lb cardstock we can back each of these using the TH idea-ology Kraft-Stock Metallic Colors in Red and Blue.

Let’s add a few of the TH idea-ology Droplets in black for some added interest. This will also add a bit of dimension and keep the card in a more masculine look. If you want to give the card a more feminine look then swap out the black for some sparkly hearts, sequins or stars!

Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen Card – Part 1 (Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and so much more!)

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today I am very excited to be showing you a Mixed Media card using the wonderful Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Gentlemen Die Set! In this set you will get three gentlemen dies and a fun little umbrella and cane!

I have decided to show you this wonderful set in a Two Part Series. I didn’t want each of the videos to be too long….so I have split it into two parts. In Part 2 we will be using the Gentlemen dies again and also the new Lost Shadow Ink, the Distress Embossing Glaze, the Bold Text Die Set, and a fun three part stencil. This video will be available very soon!

So let’s get started on the card for today by using the Tim Holtz Sizzix 3-D Tree Rings Texture Fades. This will give us a great textural woodgrain background.

Now we can add some TH Distress Oxide Sprays to give this background some color using Lumberjack Plaid, Walnut Stain and Pumice Stone. These colors will blend together perfectly!

To give the background some added texture we are going to add the TH Distress Glaze in Lumberjack Plaid. Keep in mind that this is a translucent powder…so you can see all the colors underneath the glaze…which makes it so unique!

Let’s die cut several of the Gentlemen out of the TH Black Heavystock. We can layer up quite a few of these to create a thick chipboard-like embellishment.

We can do some quick spattering on the background and the Gentleman. Now let’s add some fun ephemera from the Tim Holtz idea-ology collection and a few metal stars!

Finally, we will be adding some TH Distress Foundry Wax. This will give the card a metallic look on the background and some of our embellishments. I will discuss a few tips and tricks for using this amazing product!

Tim Holtz True Love Mixed Media Project

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today let’s create a sweet “true love” mixed media project! We will be using the brand new Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits True Love Colorize Die Set. This wonderful set creates some yummy chocolates and the box for these chocolates. These are really fun and easy to create! I will show you in detail how to assemble and embellish these little candies as well as the box!

We will start with an unfinished wood frame that measures approximately 8″x8″. I picked this up at my local craft store. I sanded it and gave it a couple of coats of paint using a pretty “Oyster Beige” color.

To create the bow for our box top we will be using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Bowtied Colorize Die Set. Again, I will show you in detail how to easily assemble this beautiful bow.

We will be embossing the box top with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Textured Impressions Swirls Embossing Folder using the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Kraft-Stock Metallic Classics in gold.

Let’s grab some patterned papers from the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Worn Wallpaper Scraps and the Backdrops Volume #1. We will also be using some die cuts from the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Layers Botanicals collection.

For some added elegance and shimmer we will apply some of the Tim Holtz Distress Foundry Wax in the “Gilded” gold color. I’ll give you a few tips and tricks for using this fun product!

Let’s add some fun sentiments to our project using the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Label Stickers Sentiments.

We will also add some pretty matte gold pearls and some Tim Holtz Mica Flakes for added sparkle and interest!

I hope this inspires you to create a Valentine’s project of your own or even a simple sweet card using this wonderful candy box die set!

Spellbinders Christmas Blooms w/ Embossed Vellum (Hidden Adhesive Technique)!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we are going to create a very elegant holiday card by combining some embossed vellum, beautiful blooms, and a pretty bow!

We will be embossing some vellum paper for the front of our card using the gorgeous Spellbinders Embossing Folder – Forevergreen. I’ll show you a couple of tricks for attaching this to your card front without any glues or adhesives showing on your card.

Next we can add a beautiful bow using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits – Bowtied Colorize. This is so easy and fun to create and would be great on a card front all by itself!

Let’s die cut all of our pretty blooms from the Spellbinders Christmas Blooms Die Set and then we can color them using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Smoky Yellow, Ever Green, Green Gray, Dk Green, Blossom Pink.

We can give our flowers and sprigs a little bit of shaping. Now we can add the bow and florals to our card. We will add a bit of sparkle to some of the sprigs and then add a pretty pearl in the center of each of the flowers!

Tim Holtz Mixed Media Christmas w/ Foundry Wax, Grit Paste and Baseboards!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s create a fun mixed media holiday project with loads of wonderful products from the Tim Holtz Collection!

To set the scene for our project we will be using a pretty Tim Holtz idea-ology Baseboard from the Christmas/Noel Collection. These baseboards have a thick, chipboard type quality to them. Let’s add some texture to this baseboard by adding some TH Distress Grit Paste in Snowfall. This will dry clear and give and icy/snowy texture. We can use this baseboard to create a window for our scene which will include a beautiful deer from the TH Sizzix Thinlits Darling Deer Die Set. We will color the deer using a sponge dauber and some TH Distress Inks.

We can now add some snow drifts and then we can ink up the background for the scene again using some TH Distress Oxide Inks!

Next we can go back to the Baseboard collection and grab a few stars and a sentiment strip. To embellish these stars we can add a TH idea-ology Mirrored Star to the center of each of these chipboard stars. This will add some sparkle!

Now let’s use a beautiful poinsettia die cut from the TH idea-ology Worn Wallpaper Scraps. This set contains several patterned papers, pretty die cuts, and some border strips!

We can add a cute little bow using the TH Sizzix Thinlits Fireside Die Set. Let’s layer this up to add extra dimension.

Once we have attached all of our elements to our project we will be using the TH Distress Foundry Wax in the Gilded (golden color). We can apply this using a sponge dauber and we want to be sure to heat set this foundry wax in order to attach it to our project and bring out the shine! I’ve added it to the stars and around the edges of the baseboard. It just makes everything pop!!!

Add a bit of crystal glaze to the berries for even more dimension and a few metallic pearls in a matte gold to the center of the poinsettia and bow!

The final finishing touch is to add a spattering of white gesso to the entire project for a gorgeous snowy look and to tie the entire project together!

I’m making my mixed media project as a gift, so I am going to include a little black wooden easel to hold the project. This makes a great gift for a co-worker, friend, teacher….I think just about everyone would love to have a fun handmade holiday gift!
