Flirty Flamingo Part 2: Color Markers

Good afternoon!! This is a part 2 of the Flirty Flamingo technique. Follow along with the tutorial and post comments. Each comment gets you added into the raffle pool. At the end of the week, I'll pull out one name and the winner gets an ink pad for free!! 



This technique goes over how to get different colors on a single stamp! Wouldn't it be great if stampin up had stamps broken up how we'd like to use them. Like the pineapple in this stamp set is one stamp! So, if I used an ink pad, I'd get green or yellow! 

Well, there's an easier way! 

Step 1: Mount the stamp onto the block! Hardest part, I know! Sometimes those buggers don't want to stick. 

Step 2: Take your green markers and color in the top green! 


Step 3: Color in the bottom yellow! 


Step 4: Stamp away! 



This is the part 2 of the tutorial that makes the Flirty Flamingo Card. So, now you have the marbled paper, cut out some ovals, stamp your flamingo and put it all together!

Day 2: Color Block Technique

Welcome to Day 2 of Techniques Week! We made it through Day 1, I might have ink stains all over my hands, but they are stains of victory....and my husband was suspicious of why I wanted his shaving cream! Oh well, my mysteriousness is part of why he loves me! For Day 2, we're making this beautiful color block background on the card. You see how it just makes this whole card come alive? Step 1: Gather your goodies. You need a clear block ( I definitely recommend the stampin up blocks, they are the only ones this technique really works for). Get a piece of whisper white cardstock and the markers! Step 2: Color your block starting on one end with real red marker.  Step 3: Color with Tangelo Twist, right above the real red. Step 4: Color with yellow marker of choice, over the orange!  Step 5: Color with a blue marker of choice, over the yellow!  Step 6: Get everything away that you don't want getting wet!! and...Spritz the b...

Organized Card Giver Post #2: Prepare to Succeed!

Hey everyone,  If you’re reading this post, it means you’re somewhat serious about the New Year’s resolution to send cards to people you care about. Do me a favor and give yourself a quick pat on the back from me. Starting is half the battle.  Actually, it’s more important to start, than to succeed. People that start something are usually the ones that end up finishing strong. I tend to procrastinate, just like everyone else. But, just like with anything, if I tell myself, just start….just run for 5 mins, just workout for 5 mins, just clean for a minute, I build momentum to keep going forward. Then when the time is up, its not so bad. You can keep going more… That’s exactly what we’re going to do this week. We’re going to start strong. That’s all you need to do for this week. I know the New Year’s doesn’t start until a month from now, but we want to actually hit the ground running as soon as the new year hits. So, preparation is the key here. For this week#1, and...
