Big Design Memory Craft & Paper Smooches Give-Away!

Hey guys!  :)  I have been having so much fun playing with some of my new Paper Smooches stamps (designed by my friend Kim Hughes) along with some cool new products from Design Memory Craft.  And... want to know what else is cool?  I get to give away some of these cool new products to three of you!  Keep reading to find out more.  :)

For this card, I wanted to make a unique background for my cute little scooter to scoot along on.  So... I pulled out some watercolor paper along with some Color Gelatos and got to work.  For the sky, I rubbed a blue Gelato directly onto a cloud stamp & pressed it onto my watercolor paper.  Then, I used a small paintbrush dipped in water & brushed over the stamped images.  To add a little extra color, I picked up a little more blue from the Gelato with a wet paintbrush and painted along the clouds.  For the grass, I used a green Gelato like a crayon & lightly colored the bottom of the paper.  Then, I used a wet paintbrush to even it all out.

This little scooter was so fun to make.  I paper pieced and popped up different sections with foam tape.  For the sentiment, I used part of a stamp from the Spiffy Scooters set & omitted the ending - adding the word "thanks" from the Sentiment Sampler set.

So... want to know what's up for grabs?  :)  One lucky commenter will win the Falling For You stamp set by Paper Smooches: 

And two lucky commenters will win a Faber Castell prize pack from Design Memory Craft!

Mixed Media Sampler Sets in Red, Yellow, Blue and Green encourage you to spread your creative wings and experiment with mixing mediums!  Each set includes a Stamper’s Big Brush, Gelato Metallic Stick, Pastel Pencil and Art GRIP Aquarelle Watercolor pencil.  Experiment with mixing colors and mediums or layer different mediums to create depth and details.  Or try using your rubber stamps with the different mediums to see which effects you like the most. 

Color Gelatos are creamy sticks infused with brilliant color.  The color slides easily onto papers and can then be dissolved with water to create watercolor effects, or left to dry for vibrant bursts of color.  Try stamping with the Color Gelatos, or apply a field of color and use a stamp to remove the color.  Color Gelatos work wonderfully on flocked papers and embellishments too!  Color Gelatos are acid-free and odorless. 

To be eligible for one of these fun prize packs, simply leave a comment on this post.  Please leave an e-mail address or a way for me to contact you.  :)  (You'll have until next Saturday, May 7th to leave a comment.)  Thanks guys, and good luck!  :)
