I just love the Mother of Pearl look you achieve when using Iridescent Creative Medium, but wanting more choice of colors, I made my own. With the wide arrange of inker colors to choose from, you can make new colors until your heart is content.

I love the look of white space on a card. I thought about the simple elegance of it and wanted to combine that with St Valentines Day for a card for my other half. But you cant have a card without a little bling and being a card for a man it must be a very little bling! That is where the fabulous GooseBumps came straight into my mind. Follow Clare’s instructions here.

Who says Creative Medium is for Mixed Media artists only? Well, I am clean and simple cardmaker at heart but absolutely LOVE all the new, beautiful and versatile Creative Medium Iridescents! Add color to your life by creating this card for someone special.

I couldn’t believe what I saw when I first played with the new Radiant Neon Amplify! While heating, the color puffs up and shows a great dimension. What a fun! Since Valentine’s Day is approaching, I began thinking of moments in love and pictures of my honeymoon came to mind. Pictures of hubby and me walking on the beach, watching the sunset. Fall in love with your own sunset scene.
There’s still time to start on that perfect Valentine’s card to surprise and delight that special someone in a couple of weeks! We’re presenting a few ideas from our Artists In Residence today on the IMAGINE Crafts Blog to inspire you to get creative.

Valentines Day – the day for Lovers all over the world. What better way to express the ‘matters of the heart’ than a handmade card using the most divine ink, Delicata Bronze Burst. Create your own Sweet Valentine card.

Valentine’s Day always makes me think of red and pink – and those are the colors I chose to create this Clean and Simple greeting card, accented with a little bling heart in the bottom corner to carry the heart theme through out this card. Follow these easy instructions to make your own!

The new Iridescent and Metallic Creative medium are just AMAZING!! I made so many cards using various techniques and they all looked beautiful. I love the fact that the same color gives a totally different result when applied to dark or light cardstock. See how I created this card here.

I am really loving the Bokeh effect trend that is appearing all around the web lately, I worked out with a few test pieces that you could re-create it relatively easily with the amazing Memento Luxe in Wedding Dress and a piece of cardstock with varying sized circles cut into it. – and what you put under it is totally up to you. For me and my love of brayering, that had to be a good mix of the gorgeous new StazOn Studio Glaze! I am in love with the way the StazOn Studio Glaze moves and streaks when applied with a brayer. Learn how I created this card.

For the longest time my crafting was pretty limited to just card making. Then I was challenged by my art friends to make a mixed media project and I have to admit, it was pure fun! Since then my mind also forms concepts of non-card projects all day and night. This project is based on transforming a simple, basic wall clock into a mini work of art. Here’s the simple instructions for making your own personalized clock.

I love all the colors in the new Iridescent Creative Medium collection and couldn’t decide which color to choose for my card. Without further ado, I chose not only one but three colors at once for my clean and simple greeting card. Get the full instructions here.
