I had this piece of Brusho piece in my stash for quite a while and now it's finally on a card. To make the Brusho panel, I embossed a piece of water color paper using the Brick Wall embossing folder. Then I misted the paper with water and sprinkled on Brusho. I moved the paper around to get the color to move within the grooves of the brick pattern. I added a die cut and the front is complete.
For the inside, I used Karen Burniston's Katherine Label Pop Up. I stamped the presents from Happiest of Days onto a label - they're colored using Stampin' Blends.
Happy Stampin',

Since Saint Patrick's Day is this week, I thought it suiting to make Karen Burniston's Paper Pros challenge - GREEN. The team takes turns choosing the theme and I chose make a green card. Not a very hard theme to follow just use the color green.
I started out with using Brusho on Glossy cardstock by sprinkling the Brusho onto a clear block, spritz with water and laid the Glossy on top of the block. Once that was dry, I used Birthday Blossoms and StazOn to stamp some flowers. I used an edge die included in Karen Burniston's Twist Panel Pop Up to get those wavy edges.
I also used that same die for the inside of my card. I just love how this card flips and expands upon opening. I only used one die set to create this card!

This Party Pandas stamp set from the Sale-A-Bration catalog is so much fun! I stamped the pandas onto a 1 3/4 circle and adhered inside of the negative area of the Starburst punch. I used a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to trace inside of the starbursts and around the sentiment.
My card base is another Sale-A-Bration item called Frutti-Tutti Cards & Envelopes. They have a pattern on the front and the inside is white. There are coordinating envelopes (as the title says LOL) and they are super fun with patterns on both sides of the flaps of the envelope. I couldn't help but decorate one of those envelopes as well. I die cut the sentiment using Celebrate You Thinlits from a piece of Shimmery White Cardstock that has Brusho on it. I sponged Pacific Point on the bottoms of the sentiment and traced around the edges to make it stand out more.

The Crazy 4 Challenges team are making projects relating to love or appreciation today. I stamped the flower from You've Got This onto glossy cardstock using black StazOn. I first applied Brusho to the glossy by shaking some on and then spritzing with water. Then I used my aquapainter to color in the leaves and stem, as well as adding a bit more orange to the flower. I stamped the sentiment onto a Stitched Fishtail Banner using a stamp set called You Move Me.
I used that same stamp set to stamp the inside as well.

I am using several new items from the Occasions catalog on my card today - click here to view the catalog. I am really having fun playing with Brusho. I made this card for my animal-loving co-worker. I sprayed Whisper White with spray starch, sprinkled on the Brusho and watched the magic happen. Whilst wet, I placed a piece of plastic wrap over the top and set it aside to dry.
When my piece dried, I stamped these cute critters from We Must Celebrate stamp set using Versamark, covered with black embossing powder and then heat set. I used Stampin' Writer Markers and a white gel pen to color them. I punched a balloon using the Balloon Bouquet Punch and adhered using a dimensional.
I used the sentiments from the set to stamp on the inside. I adhered Whisper White to both sides on the inside to give more room for my co-workers to sign the card. Since the card is 4 1/4 x 6, I custom made an envelope using the Envelope Punch Board.

The Crazy 4 Challenges team members are celebrating "Opposite Day". We're making a card/project that has opposites on it. Think opposite colors, stripes and polka dots, black and white, mirror image etc.
I have been playing with Brusho a lot lately and I used the Dots and Stripes Stencil to make this card. I placed the dots stencil on top of my craft mat, sprinkled on some Brusho, spritzed with water and then laid a piece of Whisper White on top. I then rolled my brayer over the top to ensure even coverage.
After my piece dried, I embossed Birthday Wishes for You and colored in using Daffodil Delight and Wild Wasabi Stampin' Writer Markers. I also added a piece of True Gentlemen DSP from the new Occasions catalog.

I started playing with Brusho Color Crystals from the new Occasions catalog and they are so much fun!
I stamped the flower from Helping Me Grow onto Shimmery White cardstock with Versamark, covered with white embossing powder then heat set. First I wet the flower using an aquapainter and sprinkled it with Brusho. Next I sprinkled Brusho on the background and used my aquapainter to blend the color. I used a die cut from Sale-A-Bration called Celebrate You Thinlits for the greeting.

I am using some new products today and one of them is called Brusho. These fun super colorful Brusho color crystals will be available in the new Ocassions catalog on January 3, 2018.
I spritzed water on Shimmery White card stock and then sprinkled on 3 colors of the Brusho. To get the color crystals to react some more, I sprayed a bit more water. After it dried, I used the new Celebrate You Thinlits in the Sale-A-Bration catalog to die the sentiment. I kept the little negative pieces form the Shimmery White to put back into the words to create an inlaid die cut. The more I play around with Brusho the more fun I have!
