Flower Mail Art by Irene Tan

Hello everyone! It's Irene here and today I would like to share with you all a mail art which I've created using Marion Smith Designs "Garment District" collection with some gorgeous stamps from the "Curios" stamp set.

To create the metallic flower, I've first stamped the flower using solvent ink onto a cardstock and later paint over it with some pearlescent paint.

Supplies:

Garment District 6 x 6 paper pad

Curios Stamp

Glitter White Stamens

Thanks for dropping by and see you all again soon!

Girl and Boy ATCs by Irene Tan

Hi everyone! I have some fun ATCs to share with you all today. I've created this girl and boy ATCs using the beautiful Nirvana collection.

Here are a closer look on these ATCs.

To create an interesting effect, I've used acrylic ATCs as the base. Gotta love the dimensional and floating effect

I've added different elements and textures on these ATCs. And for more details, I've used the Curios and Flying High stamp sets.

Hope you all like these fun and simple ATCs. 

Supplies used:

Nirvana collection

Curios Stamp

Flying High Stamp

Aqua stamens

See you again soon!

Mixed Media Canvas with Jelissa

Hi there friends!

Today I'm up on the Marion Smith Designs blog today with a mixed media canvas I created using MSD stamps, Garment District papers and also Junque and Gems embellishments.

Here's the canvas:

My background was created with a lovely blend of water colors, mist and glazes. And I've combined two different small stamp modules from the Curios Stamp set and used them as a repeating motif in my background.

And some close-ups:

A fussy-cut doll from Mad Tea Party

Junque and Gems goodies. I've also dabbed some liquid pearls to accent my stamped images.

A lovely flower from Curios stamp set which is the centre piece of the canvas. Had so much fun layering the colors!

And here's the start to finish video of how I put this canvas together:

And that's all I have for today, thanks for dropping by!

My First Post for Marion Smith Designs

Hello everyone! Today is my first post for Marion Smith Designs here. My first project for sharing is a layout featuring Nirvana collection. I love the earth tones in this collection and decided to use it to create this layout. Besides the beautiful tones, there are tons of gorgeous vintage images in this collection which I've cut out to embellish this layout with.

Marion Smith Designs also carries some pretty resin flowers which I've used to decorate this layout.

The bird nest is a piece from the Early Bird Nest Junque and Gems. I've used some stamens to detail around the cluster.

To further detail this layout, I've used some stamps by Marion Smith Designs such as Curios, Typo and Flying High.

Supplies:

Nirvana Collection

Curios stamp, Flying High stamp, Typo stamp

Cream Resin Rose, White Resin Rose

Early Bird Nest Junque and Gems

Glitter White Stamens

Gems

Hope you all like today's project. See you again soon!
