Hello Blockheads!

I'm back today with the finale of my W.O.W series of Art Cards!  This is Part 4 of my creative adventures into exploring White on White Embossed and Die Cut Layering.  This layering technique is so much fun and the results truly are WOW!

Over the last couple of weeks I've been playing with creating dramatic effects by layering different shades of embossed and die cut white cardstock.  I absolutely love how the combined textures and the play with shadows gives the cards a richness that's filled with luxurious drama!

I've also had the pleasure of incorporating sentiments/sayings and words from Blockheads exclusive Verses Full Sheet set of stamps into my W.O.W art cards.  This versatile stamp set is available unmounted or on cling cushion and a must-have for your collections!

Please pop on over to my blog, Leigh S-B Designs, and check out my latest W.O.W Art Card.  You'll also find links to Part 1 - 3 there too if you missed them!  

Have a great weekend and Happy Stamping!

Hello Blockheads Fans!

Here's Part 3 of my creative adventures in exploring White on White Embossed and Die Cut Layering!  I love that the acronym for White on White is WOW coz these truly are WOW... LOL ;0)

I've been playing with creating dramatic effects by layering different shades of embossed and die cut white cardstock.  I absolutely love how the combined textures and play with shadows creates some pretty spectacular art cards!   Check out Part 1 and Part 2 if you missed them!

All of the sayings and words I'm using for this series of tutorials can be found on the Verses Full Sheet which is available unmounted or on cling cushion.  This time I used the saying,  
A Real Friend...Is One Who Walks In When The Rest Of The World Walks Out,

as well as my favourite embossing folders.  You know I love my dominoes and other game related goodies so these were a serious must have for me ;0)  Blockheads Paper Arts carries a lot of Tim Holtz/Sizzix and Cuttlebug goodies as well as Spellbinders dies which I also used on this card.

Pop on over to my blog, Leigh S-B Designs, for the full tutorial with step-by-step photos!

I've got one more WOW card to share and then I'm excited to show you the Christening card I made for my precious nephew and Godson that uses elements from my WOW series but with some colour included too!  So stay tuned for those!

Have a great stamping weekend!

Round 2 of my Creative Adventures into White on White Embossed and Die Cut Layered Art Cards!

Happy Saturday Blockheads Fans!

This is Leigh aka The Sharpie Domino Queen and I'm back today to share another White on White Layered Art Card.  I've been having a blast playing with textures and shadows by using white on white cardstock that has been embossed and die cut.  Yesterday I shared my first card in the series, a 'Congratulations' art card for very special occasions - check it out if you missed it.  Today's card is equally as stunning and features the large upper case word 'DREAM' from Blockheads Paper Arts Versus Full sheet set of stamps and some T!m Holtz Alterations goodies.

Stay tuned for more of my White on White Embossed and Die Cut Layered Art Cards!

Happy Stamping!

Howzit Blockheads Fans!

I've been having loads of fun designing some art cards that play with texture, shadows and white on white embossed and die cut layering.

I've got a couple of different cards to share over the next few days that show just how gorgeous and elegant this style of card can be so stay tuned coz you don't want to miss any of them ;0)

My first creation is a 'Congratulations' art card that's perfect for special occasions of all kinds like weddings, engagements, births, anniversaries and even graduations!  You can totally switch out the flower embossed background for another design to make the card more guy friendly too!

The featured sentiment stamp is from Blockheads Paper Arts exclusive stamp line and is on the Versus Full Sheet set of stamps!
