ARTISTIC ETCHINGS
Hellooooooo
I know long time no see!!! Just when I thought I was on top of things my computer decided it wasn't going to play and consequently gave up altogether. I have only just got it back from the "puter" doctor.
Anyway enough of that I have been busy with workshops and making samples, even if I couldn't post them so here is the first one.
This card I have made with my new all time favourite stamp set from the New Stampin' Up! Catalogue - Artistic Etchings which I have in the new unmounted version which I am liking a lot even though I am a wooden stamp kinda girl at heart, these new unmounted ones really are going to save space which means ......... yes we can have more stash for our crafting - result don't you think!! :-() lol.
Using new colours Early Espresso for the main card I folded this into an Easel Style and layered Baja Breeze and one of the new In Colours Pear Pizzazz. I stamped the Baja Breeze panel in same colour Ink with two of the stamps making one fade right into the background by using second stamping, not sure if this is showing up in the picture very well.
I also got to play and get inky fingers which I love to do, using the new DSPapers Newsprint I stamped and inked the panel with Baja Breeze, Pear Pizzazz (new In Colour) using the round medallion type stamp in Artistic Etchings set, also with a finger dauber I smudged Crumb Cake over the DSP and around the torn edges which gave the result I was after - a distressed piece of old newspaper. Using same stamp from set, I also did same on separate Newsprint DSP and punched out with Scalloped Circle and 1/2" circle Punch and scrunched them up and layered with a New Flower Brad in the centre. The Eiffel Tower is then stamped onto the panel in Basic Black. The ribbon is the gorgeous new Pear Pizzazz 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon.
For the panel at the base of the card I used same as for main card, stamping congratulations (from Stamp Set Noteably Ornate - I will be back to post card I made with this set later!) onto whisper white in Baja Breeze and rubbing crumb cake all over to grunge it up before punching out with the new Modern Label Extra Large punch, layered this onto pear pizzazz and cut around leaving a small margin, it is such an easy shape to cut around to get this effect.

ARTISTIC ETCHINGS
I expect you have all been browsing the new catalogue today, one of the new stamp sets Artistic Etchings P64 was one I knew I just had to have! I ordered the unmounted set which comes in a dvd style box , now I love my wood mounted stamp sets but just thought I would try the new ones out and I wasn't disappointed, the red rubber is of the same quality as in all Stampin' Up Stamps just means we can have more stamps in our stash as they take up less room - result!!!! LOL.
Here is my first project using my favourite stamp set (at the moment hee hee) Artistic Etchings page 64, which I covered an On Board Journal 5x5 Art Journal (Page87) I just love these journals.
I used New DSP Newsprint p91, Basic Black and Very Vanilla are the two choices of double sided paper 2 sheets of each which is good so you always have one to keep!! New Ribbon 3mm Taffeta Basic Black; Card I used is Basic Black and Real Red and Very Vanilla.
I stamped the Real Red card in Real Red ink , stamping the same design onto Very Vanilla in Basic Black Ink and using the Scallop Circle punch to go behind the words which I punched out with the Oval and Scallop Oval Punches. DSP was the same piece using both sides I punched a Scallop Edge and layered with the bold print side of the same piece and Basic Black Card. Ribbon tied in knots at front and around the ring binders.
I think I may fill the pages with images from this set mmmmmm come back and have another peek later
