Favorite Things Friday - Favorite Layout That You've Made

It's time for a new Favorite Things Friday courtesy of Scrap It Girl. This week is all about a favorite layout that you have made.

This happens to be mine. It's a layout I did several years ago after a trip to Tybee Island, GA. It also happened to be my youngest niece's first trip to the beach. She took to the water like a little fish!

So what's your favorite layout that you've made.

Favorite Things Friday - Brushes

Ohhhh yeah, it's time for another edition of Scrap It Girl's Favorite Things Friday. This week is dedicated to your favorite paint brush or water color tool.

I absolutely love my water brushes. In my opinion, they are essential tools for blending. I use them on images colored with water color pencils. I used them to blend water based inks, or even for adding ink to tiny places on projects.

Blast Off!!!

It's the start of a new week, and it's also time to show off another project! This card uses our wood rocket ship embellishment. 

The card was actually pretty quick to make too! I started with a kraft cardstock base, then added a layer of red and white cardstock on top. Now the fun part begins. I took another piece of white cardstock and created layers of clouds using blue ink and a homemade mask.

Then I used silver alcohol ink and colored the rocket ship. The "flames" are simply strips of cardstock that I wrapped around a pencil to make them curl. The blue dots or simply heavy duty foil that have been run through a Cuttlebug with an embossing folder then punched out.

Lastly, I just added my sentiment.  Easy peasy right?

Favorite Things Friday - Writing or Journaling Pen

It's time for another edition of Scrap It Girl's Favorite Things Friday. This week is all about your favorite writing or journaling pen.

I personally love my Zig Millemmium pens. Why do I love these pens? Because they come in a variety of tip sizes which lets me vary how my writing appears. And once dry, the ink is permanent, which lets me add lots of color and pastes to a project and I don't have to worry about the ink bleeding.
