Made this card using the Garden Vines die from Sara's Autumn Morning collection, I first colored with sparkle pens in fall colors on the watercolor cardstock and die-cut it on a four-frame design. Then I used different color cardstocks in the background to make the cutout pattern stands out, darker color are preferred since the color of the vines are pretty bright on its own.

Lots of love!!

Foiling On Acetate Holidays Card

After a long hiatus my Etsy store is once again active! I just listed two holidays cards for sale few days ago, click HERE to check it out! Besides I also have more washi tapes for sale and it comes in different designs for you to choose from! 

Here is the new card I made with foiling on acetate, I like to try  out different medium on my card to add special feature for the card. What do you think about this card? 

It's kinda see-through but with some falling foiled snowflakes element on the front. I embossed the sentiment in gold to give it a slight dimension.

Supplies:

- Crafter's Companion Ultra Smooth White Cardstock

- Crafter's Companion Shimmering Cardstock (Forest Green)

- Crafter's Companion Foiling Kit (Contemporary)

- Crafter's Companion Chloe Stamps

- Crafter's Companion Mini Dies

Spectrum Noir ColourTint Pencils

Check out this new ColourTint pencils by Spectrum Noir! If you haven't heard of Graphite pencils before, check out HERE. The product ColourTint is the Crafter's Companion's version of Graphite pencils. These pencils are wonderful, they are many good reviews you can find about them if you follow Spectrum Noir on Facebook. Many users/crafters have shared their opinion about why they choose to work with these pencils. 

Personally I like these pencils because unlike water-coloring pencils the ColourTint pencils dry much quicker and allow you to apply another layer of color/shade without having to wait for a certain amount of time for the first layer to dry. I also find these pencils are rich in colors, you'll only need little water to bring out the colors and the color looks smoother than the watercolors (diluted with water). 

Here is another sample except this one is not using water-coloring paper.

You can still find these amazing pencils on HSN! Follow Crafter's Companion on FB or Spectrum Noir to see more inspirations or even tricks to get better result using these pencils.
