Sending Sunny Vibes - MFT

 Hi, Louise here with you today to share a card made with a 
My Favorite Things stamp set.

Bec's has just started to get MFT stamp available through the store, if there is a set you would like 
contact her through the store email and she will do her best to get it in for you.

My card is made with the Sunny Vibes set.
This is a great set for making up scenes.



To begin I started with my background using masking and ink blending.
I then stamped the images on a separate piece of cardstock and coloured using alcohol markers.
Once I was done with my colouring I fussy cut my images.  There is a dies set for this set if prefer to die cut your images.
I sorted my placement, glued the pieces down and then added the extra dimension to the
background using a white gel pen and coloured pens.


Thanks for joining me today and I hope I given you a bit of inspiration to try out a scene card

Koko again

 I can't resist this cute elephant.  This time I have created a Christmas card, never too early to add to your stash of Chrissie cards.  I just need to write them out earlier than I do.  I seem to have plenty of cards in stock for this once-a-year event, but I always leave it to the second week of December to worry about posting.  This year I am aiming for the start of November to write on them, hopefully they will be posted before December this year.  Anyhow back to my card:



I have used Stampin' Up cardstock for the base and the die in the same colour.

The die is one of Find It Trading Jeanine's Art - Christmas Tree Frame 


Of course I had to be different and put the Christmas Tree on the right side of my card.  As Bec does pre-orders for Find-It Trading  products I am sure she could check the availability of this die for you. 

Any time you are looking for a product you have seen on the internet, don't hesitate to send Bec a message on the Contact Us form on the website.   Also her email is neworders@bizzybecs.com.au
 Bec has heaps of images of Find-It dies on her website and there are some Jeanines Art designs amongst them. I have added some gems from my stash to the Christmas tree and sentiments.

The background design paper I have used is Jolly Holly digital paper.  I just love the design and colours in this set and will definitely be printing more of this to have on hand.

The Koko image I have used this time is Christmas Koko with Poinsettia and is coloured with pencils.

I hope you like my inspiration enough to grab some Koko Christmas digital stamps and start on your Christmas cards.

I hope you are a follower of this blog and I would love you following my blog.

Bye for now,

Gail

Gerbera Daisy Greetings.....

Hi - hello

Karen here, I am late sorry.  I have been doing some repotting of my plants and pulled a muscle in my side and just couldnt craft for the last few days.   So after feeling much better this morning I finished off my card  and  I am popping in now to share it with you all. 

I have been playing with masking paper and copics and a stamp set from Darkroom Doors release last year.  To help me do the background I stamped two gerberas onto masking paper and used these to help me set out my design.  After colouring all the gerberas I coloured with background with Copic black 100.  

I created a frame in the centre which I popped up onto foam tape to create dimension and then stamped and embossed my sentiment into the window. 



Supplies used:

Darkroom Door Stamp - Gerbera Daisy DDRS213

(not currently listed but is still available and can be ordered)

Darkroom Door Stamp - Happy Birthday DDSE001

Lawn Fawn Die - Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables 

Copic Markers - full list of colours used are shown on my blog


Thanks for looking

Don't forget our Monthly Challenge is now open and we just love seeing all your wonderful creations - so please join us again this month.

Until next time

Unicorn - Paisley

 Today I am using another digital stamp from our collection.  My project is a birthday card for my youngest grand-daughter Isla-May.  She will be 6 and she is a bit partial to unicorns at the moment.

I have used digital paper on the base of the pearlised white card base and found in my files a digital rainbow to position with foam mount and then I added Paisley with foam tape also.  My final touch was the doiley with my sentiment.  Inside the card I used a piece of Jasmin 2 digital paper which I think Bec gave us as a freebie back in August 2019.  I could not find it in the store, but you could use the purple digital paper I used for the front and I just lighten the brightness of it, so the sentiment can be seen better. To colour the rainbow and Paisley I have just used pencils from Crayola, Staedtler and Faber-Castell.


 


Supplies used

Pearl White card base
Wink of Stella clear on parts of unicorn
Crocheted doily from my stash
Misc digital stamp of rainbow
Punch for sentiment
Pencils (various)

We hope that you can join us for this month's Anything Goes Challenge - we love seeing your creations.

We are also looking for Design Team Members - please see post in side bar for details


Bye for now,

Teacups....

Hi everyone.


My turn on the blog today and for my card I have been having a play with emboss resist.  This is another old technique but have seen a few cards lately using the technique, so thought I would give it a go.

Firstly I used Distress Oxides in pinks from darkest to lightest then when dry brushed over the entire card with my embossing buddy.  I  used a background stamp with Versamark and clear embossing powder over the top of the Distress Oxide.  When dry I buffed up the embossing lines to make it a more shiny.

My teacups were also first stamped in Memento Black and then re stamped with clear embossing powder to match the background.  The teacups were then coloured with copic markers.




 Supplies used:

Darkroom Door Stamp - Teacups DDPS046 

Darkroom Door Background Stamp - Scratches DDBS012

Avery Elle die - Wonky Stitches

(very similary to the new MFT Die - Wonky Stitched Rectangles)

Penny Black Die - Hello

Distress Oxides - Kitsch Flamingo, Worn Lipstick & Spun Sugar

Copic Markers


Thanks for looking.

We hope that you can join us for this months Anything Goes Challenge - we love seeing your creations.

We are also looking for Design Team Members - please see post in side bar for details.


Until next time - Happy Crafting
