Distress Ink Smooshing to Create Mud Puddles

Hello!

Jess is back today with a video tutorial!  She pulled out her Distress Inks and inked things up!  Watch the video to see what tool she used to create those mud puddles.

She used her Distress Ink to create the mud puddles in the background and also used them to color the pigs!  What an easy way to color and image without actually having to color!

She also added a little fun sparkle with the Hearts and Kisses mix.  It's not just for Valentine's Day!

Have a great day!

Bright Watercolor Birthday Card featuring Mint Owl Studio Stamps

Hello!

You might need to put on your sunglasses for today's video!  Jess created a bright background for her birthday card.  It's sure to put a smile on the face of the recipient and make their birthday extra special.

She created the background with the Prima water-soluble oil pastels.  These blend really well with water and have great color.  After it was dry, she heat embossed the sentiment from the Scripty Sentiments in white for the focal point and then stamped the rest with black ink.

She then stamped the chevron pattern with the oil pastels to match the background.  The final step was adding the sequins from the Hearts and Kisses Mix and the Royalty Mix.

Have a great day!

I love how she stamped the bunnies from Some Bunny on the gray polka dot patterned paper.  Those stamped ombre hearts in the corner are also amazing!  Ombre is one of my favorite looks!

The red heart sequins from the Hearts and Kisses Mix also add a little sparkle onto the card.  Such a nice touch!

A Moose Shaker Card

Hello!

Hold on to your hats, crafty friends because Jung has a card that will blow you away!  She used the I Moose You set to create an adorable shaker card.  I love the ombre background with the splatters to make it look like a wintery night sky.

 She cut off the antlers of one of the moose to make it a female. Genius!  I can't forget to add that the sequins she added into the shaker are from the Hearts and Kisses Mix.  

I hope you are as inspired by this card as I am!  Stop by the shop to pick up your stamps and sequins so you can recreate this amazing card!

It Moose Be Love

Hello!

Cassie is joining us the blog today and sharing a fun shaker card!  I love how she stamped part of the sentiment and used die cut letters or stickers to make the "moose" stand out.  

Her coloring of the moose from the super popular I Moose You set is fantastic and the depth she creates really makes him come to life.  For the "shaker" part of the card, she combined the Hearts and Kisses Mix with the Chocolate Truffle mix.  Such a great idea that makes for an adorable card!

Valentine's Treat Bag

Hello Mint Owl Friends!

Lisa created an adorable Valentine treat bag using the new My Deer set.  She stamped the deer and tree images and then fussy cut them out.  I also love how she stamped the two hearts in the tree.  Just adorable!

The heart sequins from the Hearts and Kisses mix is a nice touch without adding too much bling.

Any one of the three stamp sets release yesterday would be perfect for creating Valentine treat bags!  Make sure to stop by our shop to check them out!

Have a great day!

Today we are starting the sneak peeks of our January Release.  There are 3 new stamp sets and 3 new sequins mixes that you are going to love!  It's my favorite release so far!  I am proud to share the first set today that is called I Moose You.

Isn't that moose adorable?!?!  There are also 4 different punny sentiments that can be used for a variety of occasions.  Decorate the tree with the stars, dots, or hearts and you have a cute and fun card!

I stamped the background with the banner die and the little heart stamp that fits perfectly within each banner pennant.  Also, the sequins that I used in the shaker card are one of the new sequin mixes.  It's called Hearts and Kisses.
