Avery Elle Hop with Ellen Hutson



The Ellen Hutson team is teaming up with Avery Elle today to showcase their newest goodies, yay! 

You know me by now... I'm a sucker for words - I LOVE BIG WORDS, I cannot lie!!  SO happy to introduce you to Make a Wish!  I should note that my card base is a big.  bold.  5.5" square!


It would be a sin to waste an inch of that beautiful rainbow-splatted panel... I simple cut two more Wishes from EBE Ebony Black cardstock, stacked them for sturdiness, and gave them a good shellacking with Nuvo Crystal Glaze

 
Here are the Distress Oxide inks I used today on Ranger water color card stock
and, yes. 
I do still have a bottle of HS Color Shine!!  do they even make it anymore??
 

Okay.  You no doubt want to go see all those cute critters from my teamies … so I'll send you on your way!  BUT don't forget to comment here, and on each of the Hop's blogs!  One random & lucky commenter will win $25 to the EH shop! To enter for a chance to win, make sure to leave comments at each stop along the hop! Comment before Thursday, February 13th at 11:59pm PST. Winner will be notified by email.  Here is the Hop list... enjoy!  Thanks so much for hopping by... Michele

Such bright, happy splattery and let's not forget, BIG, words. I do like them. This whole AE release has my credit card twitching. Granddaughter Lily is all about space (future astronaut?!), so those space guys are so tempting... However, those big words are also calling my name. And I love how you've used them. Both times. These will make two someones very happy. xo Bev

Wow, I just love the paint splatter background, almost as much as I love the bold word, and almost as much as I love a two for one card! Thank you for sharing.

Very fun cards!

Brenda said...

Well now, just another thing we have in common Michele, as I love big words to...well I love word dies, big or small. lol And I am so loving both of these cards! That word die is fabulous and you have showcased it so well my friend. I am so loving your rainbow watercolor, so artsy! It just shines on your 5x5 card. But then I scroll a little farther and see the whole piece of it, wow! It is so beautiful on this second card too! I don't know how you got your watercolor smooshing or splat to look so beautiful-I need lessons. lol I love it so and you have two beautiful cards! Hugs, Brenda

cm said...

Yes, this big die is calling my name - and even more loudly now that I've seen you create magic with it - twice! A duo of delights! Shellacking...that's a word I haven't used in a while *grin*
hugs~c
