memory dex inspiration.
that is what today is all about. i just adore adding to my beautiful blush heidi swapp memory dex spinner, it looks so pretty sitting on my workspace. and did you know that it is exclusive only to scrapbook.com? yep, this beautiful exclusive is only found there and it is stunning.
when it comes to creating my cards, i always just throw caution to the wind and let them take on a life of their own. i never really have a plan when it comes to creating a new card...to be honest i think this process of creating is more of a therapeutic practice in the end anyway. a place to experiment, play and be intentional with what i want each card to represent.
it also is a great way to experiment with new products. like these new stamps from heidi swapp. i loved adding and layering them to this card especially. i even used minc reactive mist to add splatters to the edges and foiled with black. this is a great example of how memory dex cards are a perfect place to practice with mixed media techniques!
memory dex cards are also a great way to showcase memorable or favourite photos. this photo was taken of my family way back in march when all of the quarantine life began. gosh it seems just like yesterday, yet SO long ago. by layering and adding some tags and ephemera it creates a perfect base to situate my photo on top.
and last but not least is always one of my favourite ways to create. simple stamping of a powerful message or phrase with a favourite alpha stamp set.
this one has been a number one of mine since its release and it really is one of the best. i use it all of the time, and its versatility is second to none. i love using it with all sorts of different ink colours. when i created this card i had fun using 2 shades of pink and stamped on top of each other. it gave a beautiful ombre shadow effect and it is the perfect look for this card.
i love having them all displayed in my spinner. adding to this spinner as i can is just ending up to be such a beautiful collection and reflection of where my heart, mind and soul has lived this past little while. it truly is a powerful walk down this memory lane.
