Harvest Moon Tag by Tami Bayer Supplies Tag: Avery; Ticket: Advantus; Stamps: Inklings and Imprints; Ink, Perfect Pearls: Ranger; Other: charm, fishing swivel, safety pin, ribbon.
Tip: To get the shimmery stars, stamp first with red distress ink and then while still wet, brush copper perfect pearls over the top. Be sure that the rest of the ink on the tag is dry first by blasting with a heat gun.

Tree Song by Tami Bayer Supplies Cardstock: Stampin Up, Ranger; Rub On: Making Memories; Stamp: Inklings and Imprints; Ink: Ranger, Tsukineko; Embossing Powder: Judikins; Punch: Fiskars; Other: vintage song book page, twill tape.
Tips: When working with vintage paper like this song sheet page, be sure to use a glue stick to adhere it, tape runners will tear the fragile paper. This is a basic emboss resist technique. The image is clear embossed and then the ink is sponged over the top. Wipe away the excess ink from the embossed image with a damp towel.

Wish by Tami Bayer Supplies Cardstock: Stampin Up, Ranger; Rub On; Making Memories; Stamps: Inklings and Imprints; Alcohol Ink: Ranger, Ink: Tsukineko; Embossing Powder: Stampin Up; Other: Ribbon, Rhinestone.
Tips: I set the star stamps on the page in the arrangement that appealed to me, then turned them over carefully in place. Take a large acrylic block and lay it on the stars to pick them up in the design. Then, it's easy to ink them up and stamp in the right arrangement.

Cherry Blossoms by Tami Bayer Supplies Cardstock: Stampin Up; Patterned Paper: Basic Grey; Flowers: Prima; Ribbon: American Crafts; Stamp: Inklings and Imprints; Ink: Tsukineko; Pearl Paint: Ranger; Other: corsage pin.
Tip: This tree is such a versatile image to dress up. I used flowers for a springtime look, but can imagine dressing it for other seasons, too. Puff paint or stickles could be snow, leaves or flower soft for a summery look, or add some birds or bats to give it the lived in look.

Holiday Wreath by Tami Bayer Supplies Cardstock: Stampin Up; Sticker: EK Success; Stamps: Inklings and Imprints; Ink, Glitter Glue: Ranger; Other: Flower, Brad.
Tip: It's easy to get a wreath look out of smaller stamps. Draw a round shape on your card front with a pencil. I used a jar lid as my guide. Then stamp over the circle, overlapping the smaller images. Erase the pencil line when the ink is dry. I stamped a small circle in groups of three and then filled in with Stickles to get the berries.

Butterfly ATC Duo by Tami Bayer Supplies Vellum: Stampin Up; Paper Cord: Yasutomo & Co; Pen Nibs: Speedball; Stamps: Inklings and Imprints; Ink: Tsukineko; Embossing Powder: Stampin Up; Embossing Folders: Provocraft, Other: Cardstock.
Tip: Use the mirror image stamps together to form the butterly wings. I put them close together on the block and then stamped. If you don't have pen nibs to make the bodies, use a line of rhinestones, buttons, or pearls; wire; other metal findings.

Celtic Card by Charlene Walberg Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned Paper: Scrap Within Reach; Ribbon: American Crafts; Stamps: Inklings and Imprints, Ink: Close to my Heart and Clearsnap, Ranger; Embossing Powder: Ranger.
Hint: I used 4 layers of Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel (UTEE) over the stamped images. When the UTEE dried (I placed it in the freezer for quick drying) fully, I bent the paper flat and crackled it. I then inked over the cracks, to create a more aged look.
