Pearlized paint on Dark Cardstock with Simon Says Stamp Cosmos Bloom

[@romainestout4131]

Love the colors you used on this card front. It is truly gorgeous. Thanks for sharing

[@SandiMacIver]

thanks Romaine, great colors for fall

[@lillylove3508]

Awesome!! I was certain you stamped it, then embossed it and then used Versamark all over and painted with perfect pearls. How wrong!😂 I started with card making back in 1983. I had three stamps. It escalated to something HUGE. I held classes, was published, did it all day long, but then I got pregnant, had to lay in bed for 6 months and I stopped making cards. Then bringing up the kids took all my time. Now I’m slowly returning to cardmaking again but see that while I was away thousands of new products hit the marked with new names and new techniques and I’m so lost. I feel like a beginner again! I am so happy I’ve found you, I really enjoy your style and creativity!

[@SandiMacIver]

aw thanks and welcome back. sometimes life does get in the way, and there are always new things to discover, enjoy the ride. The basics are still there but yes, they keep changing the names of the tecniques, LOL

So beautiful!!! ❤❤❤

[@SandiMacIver]

Thank you Cindi, this one was so fun to paint

[@sweetsarah9702]

Oh my! How beautiful these cards are! So glad you shared this video!

[@SandiMacIver]

thank you Sarah, it's been done for over a month I was just waiting for the paint to be back in stock because I catch it from viewers if what I am using is on backorder, haha

[@sandrakubu8163]

This is a beautiful card! I did not have the pearlized paint so when I made this card I used Perfect Pearls and it turned out beautifully! Thanks! Love your videos.

[@SandiMacIver]

Thank you Sandra, and yes perfect pearls would work as well. Thanks so much for watching, much appreciated

[@sibylleherbe8260]

Beautiful card. Thank you.

[@SandiMacIver]

thank you Sibylle

[@judithsigler9644]

GOR-GE-OUS, Sandi! It really wasn’t a “difficult card” to do and the results are STUNNING! I, too, find coloring or painting to be very relaxing, so this is a WONDERFUL card for me to CASE! I love the Pearlized Paint on the black cardstock but could see it on several other dark pieces as well! TFS, Sandi, n’ HAPPY STAMPIN’ n’ CREATIN’! Have a happy, crafty day! :-)

[@SandiMacIver]

Nope it wasn't difficult, but no one believed me, haha, they were begging me to do a video, so here we are......

[@judithsigler9644]

THANKS OODLES!! The video is really a pleasure to view!! (You paint and I get to also “relax n’ enjoy”!!). Started thinkin’ ‘bout it more, and the cardstock possibilities~~~wondered if even CRUMB CAKE/KRAFT might work??? Or an Ivory/Vanilla??? I’m thinking it could be rather elegant, too, as is yours! :-))

[@judithsigler9644]

OOPS! FORGOT (haha!) to add~~~Versatility with the design which is a “+” with a simple sentiment change-up! LOVE BEAUTIFUL CARDS that ARE NOT DIFFICULT n’ pretty quick (if you count the “coloring/painting” as a relaxation time!!!). I can see a myriad of “positive emotions” from the recipients, can’t you???!!! :-)

[@SandiMacIver]

@@judithsigler9644 the paint does look best on dark cardstock, maybe try greens and blues or a chocolate brown, it really fades out and gets muted on lighter colors

[@wendytaylor3714]

Just lovely. Thanks for sharing. Must get some of these paints for Christmas! Great video.

[@roden70]

Gorgeous. Thanks for showing.

[@SandiMacIver]

thanks so much, so glad you liked it.

[@TheFluffy924]

I just made this card. Just gorgeous. Thanks for the video Sandi.

[@SandiMacIver]

You are so welcome, hope you had fun

[@kaceeboxers3580]

Stunning!

[@SandiMacIver]

thank you KaCee, so glad you enjoyed it

[@oraleeb.2072]

Wowzers, Sandi! That’s a stunning card a great video - thanks. I hope I can find an alternative paint stamp set that’s not quite as pricey as the one you used, as I would like to give this a try. Cheers 😊

[@SandiMacIver]

Hi Oralee, since I made this video altenew came out with a set that is half the price, I have linked to it under the video and over on my blog. Hope that helps.

[@pokey3010]

Beautiful love this!!

[@SandiMacIver]

thank you so much Pokey

[@vonniescrafts1]

This has to be my favourite simply gorgeous Sandi xx

[@SandiMacIver]

Thank you Vonnie, mine too, I love painting with that paint, it gives such dramatic results

[@lindaschmidt9287]

love it

[@SandiMacIver]

thank you Linda

[@arlenemraz4607]

Beautiful card.....What would happen if you stamped the flowers first then colored them in with solid color before you added the heat embossing?...mraz

[@SandiMacIver]

if you used a stamp positioner/Misti where it stamped in exactly the same spot you would attain the same results

[@geraldinehomenchuk8655]

Absolutely STUNNING Sandi! Never tire of watching your videos & learning! LOVE those Pearlescent paints! "Dear Santa ..." 😊

[@SandiMacIver]

haha thanks Geraldine, and right, now I want the other colors set too

[@shelby5577]

LOVEEEEEEE IT Sandi!!!!! I hope to duplicate this card as I have all those paints which are so rich and creamy. You're awesome girlfriend

[@SandiMacIver]

Have Fun Karen and yes, they are amazingly rick and creamy, I LOVE working with them

[@judithsigler9644]

Thanks, Sandi, for the “extra cardstock” tips! Think the other paint colors you’d mentioned would be so very pretty, too! Just love it! :-))

[@SandiMacIver]

agreed, I'm saving my allowance to get the other ones, haha
