It’s Ceal, here. Today I am sharing how to make this beautiful light house card using supplies by Pinkfresh studio and Memento Inks.
Skill: Intermediate to Advanced Time: one hour
Directions:
Gather your supplies. You will need a lighthouse or similar stamp set with coordinating stencils and dies. To make this card I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel.
Step 1: Stamp the image with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink on a white panel.
Step 2: Using the first stencil color the portion of the lighthouse and bush. I used Love Letter and Pear tart Memento ink.
Step 3: Color the open portions of the second stencil. I used Gray Flannel, Love Letter, Cantaloupe, and Bamboo Leaves
Step 4: Color the open portions of the third stencil. I used Cantaloupe, Love Letter, Teal Zeal, Pear Tart and Gray Flannel. This will complete the coloring of the image.
Step 5: Cut the image out with the cording die using a die cutting machine.
Step 6: Color the open portion of the fourth stencil creating the sand. I used Desert Sand. For the walkway/path I used Gray Flannel.
Step 7: Color the open portion of the stencil creating the water. I used a mixture of Summer Sky and Teal Zeal.
Step 8: Create clouds in the background by using a cloud stencil. The ink I used is Teal Zeal.
Step 9: Add a sentiment to the panel and adhere the finished panel to the card base popping up the lighthouse.

My teen is hard to please, but recently they expressed interest in having a small jar to use for candles. They really like a grungy steampunk vibe and their favorite color is green and so tried to personalize this for them.
Add a dab of black Amplify! onto a brass metal gear and heat with a tool. Because I heated the Amplify!, it puffed out and made Amplify! gritty and puffy, which worked well for the jar’s gritty look.
Step 2:
Repeat step one with a second gear. Then press another gear into both a Potter’s Clay Memento ink pad as well as Perfect Plumeria VersaMagic ink pad to make the gear look like it had rusted over.
Step 3:
Die cut watercolor paper with gear dies. Then press each of the gears into Morning Mist VersaFine Clair ink. Heat emboss all three of them with silver embossing powder.
For the two top gears in the picture, press the gears back into the Morning Mist VersaFine Clair ink and then heat embossed them with clear embossing powder to create a darker or tarnished silver color on those two gears.
Step 4:
Paint a cleaned jar with gesso. Let it dry overnight. Then spray the jar with Bamboo Leaves Fireworks! Craft Spray and spin the jar to help move the spray around the jar. Repeat to color the whole bottom part of the jar and allow to dry.
Step 5:
Using a sponge dauber, add a thin layer of black Amplify! To the bottom part of the jar and then used the wet Amplify! to adhere silver embossing powder and then heated the powder to create a silver bottom to the jar.
Step 6:
Use a circular stencil and the same sponge dauber to add more black Amplify! to the center of the jar (on one side) and use a heat tool to dry.
Step 7:
Add rub on stickers next to the black circles. Glue the watercolor die cut gears over the stenciled black circles and then glue the two smaller metal gears over the top of them. Attach the largest gear by tying it onto the neck of the jar with silver thread. Splatter the jar with Northern Pine Memento Dual Tip Marker to finish the project.

Hello everyone! Today I am sharing how I made this filmstrip valentines card using some Memento inks.
Skill: Intermediate Time: 1 hour
Directions:
Gather your supplies. To make this card, you will need a valentines set (preferably with small images to fit in the film strip), a film/postage strip die, and sereral colors of ink.
I started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel for the images. I used a set from Lawn Fawn that has coordinating stamp, coloring stencils and dies. I used Memento inks in several colors to color the images and a stamp/film strip die.
Step 1: Stamp the images in VersaFine Nocturne ink on a panel of white cardstock.
Step 2: Using stencil No. 1, color the images in the desired colors. I used Morocco for the fox and Desert Sand for the deer.
Step 3: Using stencil No. 2, color the remaining images in the desired color. I used Desert Sand for the bear and Gray Flannel for the seal and Bunny just heavier handed on the seal. I used Angel Pink for the ears.
Step 4: Using the coordinating dies and a die cutting machine, cut out the images.
Step 5: Cut out the postage/film strip and then color with coordinating stencil. I used Summer Sky.
Step 6: Cut out a background using a heart cover plate.
Step 7: Stamp the greeting and then cut down at an angle. Put all the elements together on the card base.
The postage/film strip will hang over a little and will need to be trimmed. You can prevent this by madding a horizontal card rather than a vertical one.

Hello crafty friends… Can you believe it? The holiday season is here!!! Making Christmas ornaments is one of my favorite things to do. Today let’s make some handmade ornaments together. These ornaments can be additions to your own Christmas tree or you can give them to your families and friends.
Step 1 First, make sure your wood slice surface is smooth and clean. There are pre-sanded wood slices available online, too. If your wood slices were not sanded yet, you can sand it with sanding paper. Use a dry paper towel to clean the surface well.
Draw a circle and branches with the Rich Cocoa Memento Marker brush tip. You also can use a circle template to draw the circle.
Step 2 Use the brush tip of the Pear Tart Memento Marker to draw the layer of pine needle leaves with outward flicking motion on each branch.
Step 3 Draw the second layer of the pine needle leaves on each branch using the fine tip of Cottage Ivy Memento Marker.
Step 4 Draw the berries on the wreath using the fine tip of the Lady Bug Memento Marker. Simple doodle 3 little circles.
Step 5 Write lightly the word “Noel” (or any word you want on your ornament) with pencil and then trace it with the Tuxedo Black Memento Marker brush tip. You can skip the pencil if you can do handlettering directly with the marker.
These Memento Markers dry quickly and the ink won’t smudge on the wood surface. Add a piece of burlap twine to the ornament and tie it up as the hanger.
Ornament #2 – Faux Chalkboard Wood Slice Ornament
Directions: For the second ornament we are going to make today is a faux chalkboard wood slice ornament. There are a couple ways to do a faux chalkboard look on a wood slice, today we are going to do simply just painting and stamping.
Step 1 Paint the wood with chalkboard paint or multi-surface black acrylic paint. Usually one layer of paint will be enough. Make sure the paint dries well before you do the stamping.
On the wood on a stamping tool and use the magnets to keep it in place or you can use tape on the back of the wood slice and place it on the stamping tool.
On the dried painted surface, stamp the sentiment using StazON Opaque – Cotton White ink.
Step 2 Stamp the holly leaves and berries using StazOn Opaque – Cotton White on the ornament around the sentiment using the stamping tool or small stamping blocks.
When the ink dried well, add a piece of baker twine to the ornament as the hanger.
I hope you like these ornament ideas and you will find it easy to make your own ornaments. Also, making ornaments can be a fun Christmas craft party idea. I love both style ornaments, which one do you like?
Thank you for stopping by our blog today. Have a wonderful day!
