Hi folks! Did you hear the buzz?? There's a new exclusive release coming to
SCACD this Friday!! It's called "Susana Loves Stamps" and there will be two collections available. Here's a word from Susana about these new stamps:
We are thrilled to bring you 2 new collections that will capture your hearts through the eyes of these Beauties!!! I am changing things up by launching some new "branding" for SCACD in this case, Susana Loves Stamps. To be clear it does not mean I personally designed what you are seeing but I did have a part in bringing it forward. Look out for more Susana Loves projects in the works!!!
Eyes of Dreams Collection has 4 stamps and 1 bonus stamp only available when you buy the complete set, plus a sweet discount when you buy the entire set.

It's my pleasure to introduce you to "
Classic Eyes" from the Eyes of Dreams Collection...isn't she gorgeous?? I think she has a bit of a greek goddess vibe with her pretty updo and all that draped fabric. :) The other day, I posted some
Bitty Boxes that I had painted with several of the fantastic new
Luminarte products from SCACD. I had been working on my non-stick craft mat and rather than wasting the product that was left over, I reached for an
Inksentials Manilla Tag and used it to blot up the excess Silks and Micas. This created a fun mottled background. I spritzed it with water from my Mini Mister and blotted it to soften the effect. I then began layer some additional Silks in
Honey Amber and
Coral Berry applied with a palate knife. I also mixed some
Solar Gold Mica with water and
gum arabic in a
Mini Mister to create a glitter spray and spritzed that over the entire tag. After it was dry, the tag was run through my Cuttlebug with the
Hedged Maze embossing folder from Couture Creations and then the edges were sponged with brown ink. I happened to have some old scraps from a glittery paper collection that coordinated perfectly with the colour of my tag, so I sponged them up with brown ink and applied them to the tag. The flourish is part of the paper, but you could easily create something similar with some of the fabulous
Memory Box Dies from SCACD...just cut out your shape and coat it with one of the Silks or the Mica Powders. You could even cover them with
Glamour Dust if you prefer. :) To finish it off, I applied a
Make It Crafty Chipboard corner that was painted with brown craft paint and topped with some Honey Amber Silk, added a bit of ribbon and a pearl brad. I also added some pearls to the embossed design of the tag with a
Viva Decor Magic Pearl Pen.
"
Classic Eyes" was stamped on Neenah paper with
Memento Ink and coloured with Copics. Her dress and drape were paper pieced with some Bo Bunny papers and shaded with a combination of markers and Conte Crayons. Her drape was edged in Stardust Stickles and the gems in her hair band were topped off with the Magic Pearl Pen. Aren't the eyes on these images beautiful?? They really are fun to colour.
