ThermOWeb | Fall Cards with Glitz and Flock

I am SO excited that the crafty world is starting to turn to Fall cards! While I love the bright, happy cards of summer - I just LOVE making fall cards! I mixed ThermOWeb Glitz Glitter Gel with Deco Foil Flock Transfer Sheets to make this set of cards. 









I share a couple of techniques in today's video that you can apply to any themed project! And they all include some easy texture from Glitz Glitter Gel and Flock Transfer Sheets









I used the same products to create this trio of cards and just switched up the background mediums a bit. For my first card I sprayed the back of the Newton's Nook Pumpkin Patch Stencil with a bit of Pixie Spray and then used a Stencil Pal to spread Sweet Mango Glitz Glitter Gel over the stencil. While the background dried I colored some images from the My Favorite Things Autumn Blessings Stamp Set and added them to my card using an iCraft Ultra Bond Liquid Adhesive Pen and adhesive from the iCraft White 1/16" 3D Jumbo Foam Tape Roll. So quick, right?! 






I wanted to do something a bit special with this card and create a dipped Glitz Glitter Gel look. I started by spraying the back of the Newton's Nook Pumpkin Patch Stencil with Pixie Spray and spreading Deco Foil Transfer Gel DUO over the stencil with a Stencil Pal. I set this background aside to dry for a few hours. You'll know the panel is dry when the back of the cardstock no longer feels cool and the DUO Gel is clear, shiny, and only slightly tacky. I cut a piece of an Orange Glow Deco Foil Flock Transfer Sheet to be slightly larger than my background and placed the Flock fuzzy side DOWN into the DUO Gel and ran it through my die cutting machine. The pressure transfers the Flock into the DUO Gel without having to get out my laminator! A win win! 






I peeled back the Orange Glow Deco Foil Flock backer and I'm left with a fun and fuzzy background! Don't throw that backer piece away! We'll use that for our third card! You could definitely complete the card with just the Flocked background, but I decided to go a step further and add some glam! I replaced the Newton's Nook Pumpkin Patch Stencil over my design and used a Stencil Pal to spread some Gold Glitz Glitter Gel over the bottom portion of my background. 






I finished off this card the same way I did my first using images from the My Favorite Things Autumn Blessings Stamp Set. I love the look! I didn't line up my stencil quite perfectly, so I actually have an offset look! 






My last card uses a the leftover piece from my second card. Many people would throw away this piece, but not me! Nothing goes to waste in my craft room! The negative piece has such a FUN texture and it's totally different from my other two cards - and it was easy to make since I used leftovers! 






I finished this card just like I did the others using images from the My Favorite Things Autumn Blessings Stamp Set. When creating a set of cards it's easiest for me to create one design and replicate it. These cards all came together quickly and I love how they are each the same and different from each other! 






I hope you'll use some of these techniques! "Dipping" in Glitz Glitter Gel is one of my favorite ways to add extra texture and I love when I can use my leftover pieces to create an extra card! Thanks for joining me and I'll see you soon!

ThermOWeb and Newton's Nook Designs Collaboration

Hello! Are you as excited for fall as I am?! The colors, the chill in the air, the PUMPKINS?! I fell in love with the new Newton's Nook Designs fall release and I'm so excited to mix up some ThermOWeb products with the new Newton's Nook Designs release!









I couldn't wait to dive into the limited edition Pumpkin Spice Gina K Designs Glitz Glitter Gel! This color of Glitz Glitter Gel was limited edition and is now sold out, but if you weren't one of the super lucky people to buy this color - the Sweet Mango color is a fantastic substitute! It's a beautiful orange color! 






I colored up the large image from the Fall Fringe stamp set as well as the girl from the Pumpkin Latte stamp set using my Copic markers and added them onto my stenciled background. 






Head over to the ThermOWeb blog for the full write up! Thanks for joining me!

Winston's Lake House One Layer Card

Hey, everyone! My family spent this past week at the lake, so it's super fitting that this month's theme from Scrapping for Less is camping and outdoors!






The Winston's Lake House stamp set from Newton's Nook Designs is SO cute! There are so many cute scene building stamps! I almost went with a lake scene - but the little bear and cabin images just spoke to me!






This card came together super quickly with just a bit of masking! I stamped my sentiment first and then the bear image. When masking it's important to remember to stamp whatever image you want to be in front first! I stamped the bear image onto masking paper and cut it out with scissors and placed it over my original stamped image and stamped my lake house. When I removed the masking paper it looks like the lake house is set behind the little bear! I used my Spectrum Noir Triblend markers to color them in.






I didn't to much to embellish the card - just some gems and clear glitter! Check out my video below!






Thanks for watching!
