Pigment Sprinkles 3 Ways with the Modern Heart Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

Hello and Happy Monday! I hope you're  week is off to a great start! Today I want to share with you 3 cards I made during my Facebook Live last night featuring the awesome Pigment Sprinkles and the Modern Heart Stamp Set.
I love the versatility of the Pigment Sprinkles watercolor. There are so many ways and so many uses for these richly pigmented watercolor crystals that they are a must have in any craft room.
First, there is the direct to paper watercolor. With this technique, you sprinkle the dry watercolor crystals onto your project and spray with water to explode the color.

In this particular example, I did an emboss resist by stamping my image in Versamark clear pigment ink and added clear embossing powder to heat emboss my image. I then sprinkled it with Bermuda Bay, Mellon Mambo and Gorgeous Grape Pigment Sprinkles, spritzed  with water and heat set the color.
For this second example, I used the "smooshing" technique by sprinkling the watercolor crystals onto a piece of Saran Wrap, spritzed with water and then smooshed my watercolor paper into the color. Here I used Mellon Mambo and Daffodil Delight.

In the 3rd and final example, I painted with my Pigment Sprinkles. I added the crystals to wells in my watercolor pallet and added water. I then used my AquaPainter to pick  up the color and paint the geometric shapes within my heart. I then fussy cut the heart and added  it to my project using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Another great use for these Pigment Sprinkles would be to color White Embossing paste, or glue that you may  want to add color too.  You can also use them to color White acrylic paint or White enamel paint. The the options are endless! Want to die ribbon? Add some Sprinkles to alcohol and soak your ribbon for a bit, then remove and  allow to dry...fast drying dye!
What other mixtures might you color with Pigment Sprinkles? Share your thoughts in the comments below. I'd love to hear!

August Paper Pumpkin - The Kit You Won't Want to Miss!

Hello and good morning! Can you believe it's Thursday already? Yeah, me neither! And to boot, it's already August 8th! Pretty soon the NYS Fair will begin and immediately following the kids will be back in school which means getting stuck behind stop and go traffic for school buses again....I have to admit, that's one of my favorite parts of Summer, is no school buses on the road...I don't have to give myself an extra 20 minutes to get to work on time....sad I know. 

Anyway, my reason for dropping in on you today is Saturday is the last day to get in on the August Paper Pumpkin kit! Yeah...seriously, that's how fast time is going by. So, I don't know EVERYTHING about this kit...Stampin' Up! likes to keep the element of surprise for us with these kits, but they did share that the kit is going to make 6 bags and 12 coordinating tags and it will be a Fall theme with a beautiful Fall themed stamp set (all Paper Pumpkin stamp sets are exclusive to the kits and can not be purchased separately) And as an added bonus this month, also exclusive to subscribers, is that you can purchase an add on to your kit that allows you to create 24 cards, making this the kit you won't want to miss! You will receive 24 card bases along with 24 coordinating envelopes that will work back to your Paper Pumpkin kit. Now, these add ons are only WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. So, you will not want to wait on these. If you are not a current subscriber, you will NOT be allowed to purchase the add on kits. However, if you order a Paper Pumpkin subscription whether it's a recurring subscription or a pre-paid subscription, you will be able to order the add on.

Triple Fold Drop Down Card featuring the Beautiful Friendship Stamp Set

Good Morning and Happy Wednesday my friends! Thanks so much for stopping by to see today's project. Today, I have a fun fold for you called the Triple Fold Drop Down and I'm featuring my product pick for the week, the Beautiful Friendship stamp set by Stampin' Up! 

As I stated earlier in the week, I absolutely LOVE this stamp set. I love the DistINKtive® image created with just one ink application. Talk about the easy button! Now, who doesn't like the easy button? Seriously!

Then of course there is the marrying of the beautiful 2019-2021 InColors, Rococo Rose and Seaside Spray! I LOVE these colors....actually, I LOVE all of these new InColors and I'm so excited to learn that the Purple Posy will be coming in the near future. It finally passed Quality Control! That's one of the MANY things I love about Stampin' Up! Their quality is bar none, heads and shoulders above ALL. They will NOT put their name on something that is not top of the line, top notch all the way! And, if something does hit the market and it doesn't maintain the highest quality, then they will discontinue it and that's that!
