Whisper of Wings Clear Stamp Set and Honeycomb Background Stamp - JustRite Papercraft New February Release Day Two!

Hello blogging friends!  Today, is day two of the JustRite® Papercraft New February Release.  We have a clear stamp set and a background stamp to share with you.  I have to tell you I am especially excited about the clear stamp set!

Here is the CR-02149 Whisper of Wings Clear Stamps.  Look close--do you see anything?  Check out the sentiment--Let your heart be still and hear the whisper of the wings.  Yep, that's my quote/stamp!  Now I didn't design the stamp set--that was done by the amazing Amy Tedder.  But I helped to inspire the stamp set.  Kellie, President of  JustRite® Papercraft asked me if I could share a few words about this quote and what inspired me for this stamp set.

"Life is so fast pace these days and I think sometimes we forget to take a few quiet moments and just BE in that moment.  I truly believe that angels and the spirits of those who have gone before us are all around us—watching over us, protecting us and guiding us.  To me “Let your heart be still and hear the whisper of the wings”, means to give yourself permission to have those quiet moments.  Maybe to reflect on things or maybe just to let your mind relax and refresh and have that moment.  You never know maybe something profound will come to you, maybe an idea, or an answer to a question or maybe the quiet whisper of angels wings to calm you and let you know they are watching over you and you are loved."

Here is the card that I designed using the CR-02149 Whisper of Wings Clear Stamps set.  I stamped the images of the feathers on to watercolor paper using VersaMark ink and then added white embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool to create a crisp white embossed image.  Then I used Gansai Tambi Watercolor paints to create the watercolor wash background.  After I was done with the background I used a heat tool to dry the paper.  Then I took a dark blue and flicked some of the paint on the paper for a spattered look.  

Here is a close up.  I added some sequins and bling for a little bit of sparkle.

I used Memento Teal Zeal to stamp the sentiment.  Then I used the S4-114 Standard Circles Large and S4-444 Royal Circle dies to create the die cuts.  I offset them a little bit on the paper and trimmed off the excess.  Then I added a seam binding bow.  I layered this on to a white piece of cardstock and then a glitter aqua paper and solid aqua for a card base.

For my second card I used the CR-02149 Whisper of Wings Clear Stamps and the CL-02158 Honeycomb Cling Background Stamp.

To create this card I did a watercolor wash using Distress Inks.  I used Shaded Lilac, Salty Ocean and Chipped Sapphire.  Then I applied gesso to the background stamp and stamped that over the watercolor background.  **Be sure to wash your stamp right away to remove the gesso.  Once the gesso was dry I stamped over it with VersaMark ink to create the images of the feathers.  Then I used silver embossing powder and heat set it with a heat tool.  I also inked and embossed the edges of the paper.  Next I added some lavender ribbon and a bow with a beautiful Mixed Rhinestone Flower Center Embellishments from ButterBeeScraps.

Here is a close up.  I also added a real feather to embellish the card,  I used one of the sentiments from CR-02149 Whisper of Wings Clear Stamps and embossed it in silver.  Then I die cut the sentiment using  JustRite Custom Dies JB-03995 Vintage Labels Three Dies.  Before removing the paper I inked the inside edges with shaded lilac Distress Ink.  Then I added some 3D Foam Squares for a little bit of dimension.
