Brusho meets Petal Burst

There are so many great things going on right now, I could burst!  First up - I've been invited to be a vendor at a fundraising event this weekend for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada.

The most exciting time for Stampin' Up! is Sale-A-Bration (SAB), and that's for the following reasons:
  • This is the very best time to join the fun! During SAB. not only do you get to choose $165 in products for just $135 (no tax or shipping costs), you also get to choose TWO free stamp sets of any value from either the Annual or Occasions catalogues.  That's a fabulous deal you shouldn't miss!
  • In addition, by joining now, you'll get to see the next annual catalogue & get your hands on some of the products a month before it goes live!  Woot!
  • During SAB for every $60 you spend, you get to choose an amazing SAB item....AND, new items have been added!!  Click here to see the SAB goodies!
Don`t miss out - Sale-A-Bration ends on March 31.  Join the fun, save big time and let`s get creative!!


I'm also becoming more and more confident doing my weekly Tuesdays at Two Facebook Live Video and demonstrating stamping techniques!  Here's a couple of cards from my most recent video.


Recently I saw video from a UK demo named Linda Dalke and thought, oh boy I have give this a try!  Brusho Crystal Colour from Stampin' Up! comes in 5 colours, and for this project, I chose Yellow and Prussian Blue.  I opened my Petal Burst embossing folder, and sprinkled the Yellow Brusho from the top of the folder to mid-way, and then did the same with the Prussian Blue Brusho, but from the bottom of the folder, to mid-way.  Next, I spritzed water onto the folder, activating the Brusho crystals, then I place a piece of watercolour paper onto the wet side of the folder.  I closed the folder, used a bit of pressure to ensure the paper was saturated, then removed the paper.  There was lots of colour and water in the folder, so I did the same steps with a second piece of watercolour paper.  It`s amazing to see the colours mix and know that every piece will be unique!
Tip:  you can also use Stampin`Up! Shimmery White cardstock

This card in the pic above and below is the second print from a Brusho & embossing folder technique. 


As this is the 2nd print, it didn't have as much colour as the 1st print, so I was thinking hmmm...I wonder what would happen if I used a baby wipe to swirl the wet Brusho around the paper.  Well, it`s pretty darn cool, if I do say so myself. *smiles*



This is the 1st print from the Brusho and embossing folder.  I am in L-O-V-E!  Does the picture do justice to this card...noooooo, but I hope you think it`s cool and want to give this technique a try!
