Hello cardmakers. If you haven't heard, SBCfest begins this Friday, September 11th at Scrapbook.com. It's a free crafty online event with some of your favorite industry instructors. SBC was kind enough to send me some of the bundles that will be featured at SBCfest and today, I'm creating with Laura Graff's Instructor Bundle. Scroll down for details, and be sure and sign up for SBCfest at the link above!!
(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links, at no additional cost to you.)
Now, most of the products in the instructor bundles are currently only available as a bundle. However, after SBCfest, you should be able to purchase individual products from the bundles.

So let's get started! I began with the Wavy Arched Window Frame dies from the bundle, die cutting on white cardstock.
I used a strip of my low-tack mint tape to tape all my die cuts together on the backside, then used the tape to mask the bottom of the squares for ink blending.
It doesn't matter that I'm getting ink on the outline die cut, because I plan on discarding it and replacing it with die cut paper from the Wildflower paper pad.
The ink I'm using is Catherine Pooler Designs Succulent ink pad with blender brushes. When finished, I then used mint tape again to mask my squares for stamping with my stamp positioner.
The stamp set from the bundle is called Hello Wildflower, and I stamped my images with my Scrapbookcom black hybrid ink, which is really great for coloring with alcohol markers. Once I finished stamping, I colored my images with two markers from the OLO Marker Botanical marker set, I used markers YO2.3 and YG8.5. I also used a white gel pen to embellish my ink blending, to appear as white paint splatter.
When finished, I pulled off the outline die cut (remember, they're all taped together on the back) and replaced it with the same orange speckled paper that I used for the card panel. All the papers you see, including the die cut butterflies from the Wildflower shaped die set, are from the Wildflower paper pad.
Here's a cool tip - The yellow wildflower paper has the spleckled orange on the flip side. So, when I die cut the yellow wildflower paper with the Wavy arched window frame, all I had to do was flip the paper to the orange side and my yellow flower die cut frame fit perfectly inside.
It's a great way to get two different uses out of one piece of paper when using that wavy frame die.
Lastly, my sentiment was stamped using my stamp positioner so I could use 2 ink colors which were Catherine Pooler Mandarin Spice and Succulent ink pads. There's a little bleed where I didn't completely wipe one color before adding the next, but I'm ok with it. Then, I used the Hello Wildflower die set to die cut my sentiment.
I also applied Pops of Color liquid embellishment in Sunflower on my finished card, and used another one of my tricks to make it look like enamel dots. Before the dots dry, slap your card on a flat surface like your craft desk or counter, and they will flatten out. Just remember, the larger the dot, the bigger the spread.
That's it for today, let me know if you've signed up for SBCfest! It's going to be a great time!
