Fun Summertime Bday card

Super easy to make I used a 2 X 2 square cut in half. rounded the top corner - stick them on all facing the same direction. doing 2 layers. Using 4 squares in all. I used real red cs whisper white cs random dsp (all depending on the colors you are wanting to go w/), brights buttons. For the tag i used label punch, and teeny tiny wishes bday stamp. The ribbon was whisper white seam binding and used a sponge to make them bashful blue, real red.

Color Spritzer Tool Technique w/ "Vintage Vogue"

Supplies: color spritzer tool, stamp & write markers,vintage vogue stamp set

1. Take your spritzer, and your stamp & write marker (using the brush tip end of the marker)

2. On your color spritzer tool you will notice a whole on one end. Unscrew the screw and slide marker down till brush tip is about half way down n then you want to tighten up the screw to hold the marker in.

Two ways to use:
1. If you want a more intense splatter hold spritzer tool close to card stock./ Holding your spritzer farther away from card stock will give a light splatter.

(the spritzer tool adds more dimension to your back grounds.)
To clean the spritzer just remove the marker and squeeze a few times to clean the air way.

Tart n Tangy - Scratch & Sniff Technique

As a child scratch n sniff stickers,pencils etc. was probably one of my favorite things. So when I came across this technique I couldn't wait to give it a try. And I must say I LOVED IT! It's my favorite yet.

Supplies: kool-aid of your choice must be sugar-free,heat gun,clear embossing powder, whisper white CS, tart n tangy stamp set and small containers to mix in.

1. Mix 1 part sugar-free rink mix to 1-1/2 parts clear stampin' emboss powder.

2. Stamp your bol image on card stock with a color that coordinates with your embossing powder mix.

3. Using a stamp-a-ma-jig, stamp you image an heat emboss.

Tips:
-If you only want to emboss a portion of your image, use a versamark to ink the desired section of your stamp for step 2.
-You can use Craft ink for step 2 and skip step 3.
-You drink mix should be sugar-free b/c heated sugar crisps and browns.
