Paisley Flowers

Hello Gel-A-Tins Fans!  Kate here today sharing my latest card using Gel-A-Tins "Build Your Own-Paisley Florals" Collection.  


I used one of the paisley stamps to create the flower petals.  Such an easy way to create a pretty flower! First I stamped the paisley stamp on white stamping cardstock with VersaMark.  Then I embossed the stamped image with embossing powder from Stampendous.  Each paisley image was fussy cut out and then the tails trimmed off.  I then layered each "petal" until it looked like a pretty flower and popped them with Helmar Zapdots.  

Gel-A-Tins Supplies:
Build Your Own - Paisley Florals 

Other Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink Stamping Cardstock & Sentiment Stamp
Quick Quotes Powder Puff Chalking Ink
Stampendous Embossing Powder 
May Arts Ribbon
Pebbles Inc Paper
American Crafts Twine
Helmar Premium Craft Glue & Zapdots

Wishing you a lovely day!

Hello, gel-a-tins friends! It's Jessi from Kissin' Krafts. Today I am sharing with you a generic card using 
gel-a-tins gelly jr. Doodleflower stamp:


The flower image is stamped on patterned papers and hand cut. Buttons are added to the center of each flower. The jar diecut is made out of a different patterned paper. The flowers are attached to the card with the top flower using a foam dot to add dimension to the card.

Clearly Stated

Just like any sign, you need to clearly state what you you are thinking...


And the stream-lined, sign-looking people in the "Home Sweet Home" set can 
help you get your message across.
Here, I used "Teal You Want" embossing powder 
and pieced the dress on this fashionable stick figure!

Thanks for checking out the Gel-a-tins Blog today!

'it's your day' pillowbox

Hey everyone! I'm sharing a pillowbox I made using two stamp sets from Gelatins Stamps. The stamp sets I used are Happiness & It's Your Day

Here's my project:
I used the one of the flower background stamps from the Happiness set to stamp in the middle of my tag. I masked off the edges first. The ink is Prima chalk ink in moss lawn. Then I used the it's your day sentiment with some Versafine ink.

You can see more of my project & a supply list at my blog, Markland & Main. Thanks for stopping by today1

Go Get 'Em Tiger!




Hey everyone! Happy Friday! :-)

I'm sure you won't be surprised to see me feature another card created using the Gel-à-Tins Zebra Background stamp down! I don't have enough superlatives for how much I love this stamp!

It's always fun to change up the look a stamp gives just by varying your colours etc. For example a quick switch up of colour here and you have something that isn't zebra print at all:



Fun right?! This card would be just perfect to give to someone to wish them luck for a big interview, first day at work, and other occasions where someone might need encouragement or good luck wishes!


I stamped a tie image onto orange cardstock, trimmed it out, then stamped the zebra print over it. Love how it now looks like tiger stripes!


I added a fun sentiment using a typewriter alphabet font set. This goes so well with the overall idea, I just love it!


Supplies Used:

Gel-à-Tins:
Zebra Background

Other:

His Birthday stamp set (Woodware), Typewriter Alphabet stamp set (MFT)
Versafine Onyx Black ink (Tsukineko)
Stamper's Select White cardstock (Papertrey Ink), Orange You Fabulous cardstock (Clear And Simple Stamps)

Pinflair Glue Gel (Olba)


I'll be back again soon to share another project, have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by!

Love Is Like A Butterfly

Love is in the air! So are butterflies!  Kate here today to share with you a card filled with love and butterflies.  The butterflies in the sweet grass stamp from the Easter Bunnies collection inspired me to play on the butterflies. 


I stamped the image across the bottom of my kraft cardstock in Emerald Green Archival Ink.  I love the little flowers and butterflies just peeking out from this stamped image.


You know a stamp is great when you can build a card around it. That is exactly what I did with this stamp!

Easter Bunnies

Other Supplies:
Core'dinations Cardstock
Papertrey Ink Stamping Cardstock
Ranger Archival Ink
Want 2 Scrap Bling

Thank You Little Birdie


Hello, gel-a-tins friends! Today's project highlights the gel-a-tins Build Your Own Paisley Stamp set. The dotted outline paisley makes a pretty paper-pieced bird.  


The wing of the bird was cut-out by outlining the small solid paisley stamp in the Build Your Own Paisley Stamp set. A pendant die cut is used to form the beak.  The decorative window is formed with diecuts as well.   A simple sentiment from gel-a-tins Honey Bear is added to finalize the card.


Thank you for stopping by today! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Spring Greetings!




Today', I am showing a card using "Easter Bunnies" by Gel-a-tins.
Just b/c it's Easter doesn't mean that you have to make an Easter card.
I simply cut up the phrases found in this set.
Arrange them in a new order on your acrylic block and you have more options!!


Super cute bunny...with rhinestones!

I hope your neighborhood bunnies aren't eating your tulips...
they sure are here!!
