So let's jump right in!
Here are the cards that I made using this technique...





And here is a faux marbling card. My daughter wanted to make a card too, but I had put everything away and was waterpainting. So we got some shaving cream and added a couple of sprinkles of the paints and Viola, she has her pretty pastel blue background.

Now this was a little challenging for me because I used the wrong shaving cream but I think it worked out great in the end. Check out the video if you want to see a little more step by step for the Paper Marbling tech.
Here is the entire line up:

You are heading to JODIE

  2. Love the black and white marble look and how it looks with a strong color like the bright pink.

  3. Great color combo. I think the polka dots set off the marbled paper beautifully.

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
