ThermOWeb | Mixing Neon Flock and Neon Glitz Glitter Gel

Even monochromatic cards should pack a punch of color! And texture! I used Rina K Designs Neon Glitz Glitter Gel on top of the matching Flock Transfer Sheets and created a set of neon monochromatic dragon cards.









I used the same technique and process for each of my four cards. Often when I work with the Rina K Designs Neon Collection I find myself making four cards instead of one. How can I pick a favorite neon color!?





There are so many ways to use Neon Flock Transfer Sheets and Glitz Glitter Gel. I paired them together today and used the Flock in place of colored cardstock!









I die cut each of the four colors of Neon Flock Transfer Sheets - Poppin' Pink, Orange Glow, Hello Yellow, and Screamin' Green - with one of the Notched Squares Dies from Whimsy Stamps. The Flock Transfer Sheets die cut beautifully! You can just die cut the Flock direct from the package. Nothing fancy here! Just die cut in your cutting machine like you would any other piece of paper or cardstock.









Once all four of my Flock Transfer Sheet pieces were cut it's time to add some Glitz Glitter Gel! I sprayed the back of the Backgammon 2 Stencil from Miss Ink Stamps with a light application of Pixie Spray and set the stencil aside for about a minute so the Pixie Spray could dry and become slightly tacky. I placed the stencil on top of the die cut Flock pieces and pressed lightly to adhere the stencil to the Flock. Again I'm treating the Flock Transfer Sheet die cuts just like regular paper. The only difference is that it has a fun fuzzy texture! I used a Stencil Pal and gently scraped some of the matching Glitz Glitter Gel across the stencil and repeated with all four backgrounds.









I set the panels aside to dry for a about an hour and started working on my images. I used the PhotoPlay Dragon Dreams Dragons Stamps and Dies - aren't they cute?! I just love them! I wanted to keep these cards monochromatic, but I thought a break of color would be nice. I decided to keep the dragons white and accent with colors matching the Neon Flock and Glitz. I colored the dragons with Copic Markers and die cut them with the matching Dragon Dreams Dies. I also stamped a little sentiment strip from the Dragon Dreams Stamp Set for each card.









I created four card bases that measure 5 x 5 inches square. I love creating square cards of this size because you can still mail them in a 5 x 7 envelope without extra postage! I adhered my Flock and Glitz background pieces onto the card bases with iCraft Ultra Bond Liquid Adhesive and the dragons and sentiment strip with iCraft 3D Foam Squares.






I hope this set of neon monochromatic cards gives you some ideas for mixing together your Flock Transfer Sheets and Glitz Glitter Gels!

This is the Life

Hey, everyone! Today I created an outdoor masculine card using just papers and cardstock stickers! ... and a bit of die cutting! Head over to the Scrapping for Less store to grab these papers and stickers! They're perfect for quick and easy guy cards!






The papers in the Campfire & Lakeside 6 x 6 paper pad from Photoplay are so fabulous! I love the color scheme! Blues, reds, and greens! Perfect for outdoor cards! I grabbed one of my favorite patterns - the fish pattern - and built my card around it! I die cut a plaid piece to be my background and trimmed down the fish piece to fit inside of the die cut background.






The At the Lake cardstock stickers from Paper House are so realistic! I knew I wanted to use the canoe and some accessories on my card, but they were getting lost. I used one of my favorite "sticker tricks"! I put the stickers down onto white cardstock and trimmed around the edge to leave a white border. This helps them stand out! I added the canoe, some plants, and the duck as well as the sentiment.






This card came together so easily! I love when products coordinate together! Thanks for joining me! See you soon!

Christmas All Year Long - Patterned Paper Cards

Hey, everyone! I know many of us find ourselves scrambling in November and December to create Christmas cards for friends and family. At Scrapping for Less we are celebrating Christmas all year long! Once a month we will be sharing inspiration for a Christmas card! I used the Photoplay Here Comes Santa paper pad and a sentiment from the Stocking Full of Joy stamp set from Your Next Stamp to create a set of 7 Christmas cards!






I used about 5 pieces of patterned paper to create these 7 cards! And in the end I only had 2 little strips left! And I created all 7 cards in about 20 minutes! Yay! I have a video tutorial at the end of this post so make sure you check it out!






I started by cutting up some pieces of patterned paper - some had little images (like pictured above) and some into strips of varying widths. I didn't follow any sketches, but these are super basic layouts that can be easily replicated!






I needed a sentiment for some of the layouts and the "Happy Holidays" sentiment from the Stocking Full of Joy stamp set seemed perfect! I love the little script!






I had a bunch of strips of paper left over, so I decided to use them to create one more card! Plus I couldn't let that little Santa image go unused!






Thanks for joining me!
