Do you love making floral stamped cards? I do! And when I made these cards, I was in a glittery mood too! These gorgeous floral stamps by my very talented friend Brandi Kincaid are part of the second Essentials by Ellen Summer of Stamping release and hopefully you are joining us for a very inspiring blog hop! (If so, you should be arriving here from my sparkly friend Carissa Wiley's awesome blog and you can find the whole hop list on the EH blog.) Now should we talk more about glitter cards? I know not everyone loves glitter like I do because it can be really messy. For these cards, I used two different glitter mediums - glimmer paste & loose glitter - and the loose glitter is definitely the messy sister! For crafters who think they don't like glitter, I would definitely recommend trying the glimmer paste. Basically it is glitter mixed into a gel medium that you can spread with a palette knife and when the paste dries, the glitter stays put! I love to layer iridescent glimmer paste over ink blending like this... Now if you don't mind having a few stray sparkles on your face for a few days, good ol' fashioned loose gliter can create some really fun cards too! For these cards, I covered an entire stamped panel with double-sided adhesive and then glitter. The photos really don't do the sparkles justice plus you can see more about both of these glitter techniques in my quick cardmaking process video... Since I was on a glittery roll, I also made one more card. I did a little ink blending on the card front and then added glimmer paste on top. The I stamped a panel with the flowers from the Essentials by Ellen You Should Know set, and die cut "friend" with the Essentials by Ellen Block Words set. The negative die cut word let's the glimmer paste show through. And then I finished the sentiment with "what would I do without you?" from the Essentials by Ellen Thank You For Being A Friend set.

I wanted to pop on the blog today to share a cardmaking method I'm really loving for people and critter stamps...selective coloring! I very much consider myself a coloring newbie so sometimes coloring a whole image can feel a little overwhelming! My solution is to choose one or two colors and color just one or two parts of the image. I love how easy it is and how it feels like a sweet storybook! Here's an example using some of the latest Essentials by Ellen... For the Little Lady, I added a heart shaped balloon by stamping the big heart and teeny heart, overlapping the bottom points. For the Leading Gentleman, I colored his shirt with Copic BG11 and then stamped hearts on top. Thanks so much for stopping by!
