Ok, up first today we have Hannah's newest set, Main Squeeze. AND matching Main Squeeze Dies!
Here is my card for today:
For this card I used those awesome new Neon inks and made the rainbow strip by masking off a section of the white cardstock. I also used the same colors in the watermelon slice. Now the little seeds, match the strawberry, but with a little ink wiping off you can make it fit to make a watermelon slice like this! Although nowadays, they have seedless watermelons but it just needed those black seeds that will grow in your belly if you swallow to make it look right! haha! (was anybody else told that as a kid when eating watermelon?!) SUPER easy card with alot of POP! And I also had to make this card:
Those slices just reminded me of the candy slices covered with sugar! I saw candy not fruit! (says the fat girl, haha!) I used Glitz Glitter Gel in white to create my 'sugar' These make me want to go get some lol!
Ok, next up is the AWEsome Card kit, Pop-Art Flowers

- Layering Guide for the Pop Art Flowers stamp set
And here are my cards I created with this kit:
For this card I used the Neon inks, again (can you tell im loving them? LOL) and used the ink cube to make the little square shapes after spritzing the cardstock with some resist spray. I die cut the flowers and then just inked the edges with color. These look very 'pop-art-ish' to me, lol! Next one is combined with Melanie's Perfect pallet set:
The flowers are colored with prisma pencils. And I also flicked on some acrylic paint with a toothbrush, black and white acrylic paint. They are very small, and cant really see it too much in this picture. 'water droplets' are added here in there with Crystalline Drops.
And one more, and I also used Melanie's Perfect Pallet set!
I used the pallet boards to create a frame then stamped and cut out the roses. Please ignore my choices of colors of inks i used on the roses, lol! after they dried, its like the color changes and I remembered afterwards that the distress oxide inks will do this after drying! BUT, I love how this turned out, kinda soft and rustic all at the same time, lol!
next, I wanted to show you the brand new Incentive stamp set, Layered Eucalyptus
And my card:
I created the background using the stripes stencil that is in the new card kit and also did some paint splattering on this too. Used a die to create the angled edge and also the oval sentiment. LOVE this little incentive set!
