Valentines Shmalentines! Bring on Valloween

I used the new Heart Hands Die to create this Valloween card. If you have not watched Wednesday on Netflix go check it out. Hands down (pun intended) the best spinoff of a classic. I was born to be a student at Nevermore Academy.

Alien Love Invasion

Hello! I am very excited to share my first card as part of the Whimsy Stamps New Release Team. For this alien love invasion I used the Space Moonies Stamp and Die Sets. I also paired this with the super groovy Love Heart Die. The background was made using black cardstock and Ranger Distress Mica Stains. #whimsystamps #whimsystampsnewrelease #whimsystampsdesignteam #copiccoloring #copiccoloringforcardmakers #handmadecard #handmadecards #papercrafts #cardmakersofinstagram #distressmicastain #rangerinks #alien #alienabduction #valentines #valentinecard.

Jane’s Doodles Guest Designer

Hello! I am so excited that I am Guest Designing for Challenge #9. The theme is animals. I chose to use the Outdoors stamp set and create an evening campfire scene.

To create this card I started by stamping on Neenah Desert Storm cardstock. I colored the stamped images with Alcohol Markers and colored pencils. Then I masked everything off and used distress inks to create the backgrounds. For the final touch I scattered a touch of iridescent confetti in the sky and around the campfire.

The theme of the challenge was embossing. I chose to use heat embossing. The background was created by stamping with Ranger Clear Embossing Ink and Brutus Monroe Icicle Embossing Powder on Neenah Desert Sand Cardstock. Then I used three Prismacolor Pencils to add a bit of color. The turtle was stamped with fadeout ink and colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

Newton’s Nook Inky Paws Sketch Challenge #114

Happy Wednesday! Up on my blog today to show you a card that I created for the Newton’s Nook Sketch Challenge.

I bought myself a few goodies from the Newton’s Nook Black Friday sale and I used them to create this card. Merry Christmas to me! I used the super cute new NN Penguin Pile stamp and coordinating die set to be the focal point of this card. I stamped the penguins with Versafine black ink onto Strathmore watercolor paper. Then colored the penguins with Zig Clean Color Watercolor brushes.

For the background I used the NN Snowfall Stencil with Liquitex Gloss Gel Medium. I stenciled the gel onto teal colored paper and also onto lilac colored paper. I let those dry for several hours before I die cut both pieces using the NN Frames and Flags die set. After the lilac paper was die cut I blended Brutus Monroe Aubergine Surface Ink onto the edges with a blender brush. I really liked the way it made the snowflakes pop. I also used the Aubergine ink to stamp the sentiment onto white card stock. Everything was layered onto an A4 card base. I used foam tape to adhere the penguins to add more dimension.

I am looking forward to using a few other Newton’s Nook items that I bought on Black Friday. Can’t wait to get a little extra time for some Craft Room Therapy.

Have a great day!

This Picket Fence Studios stamp is the first stamp that I used Arteza Real Brush Pens to color. On Black Friday I got my hands on the Arteza Real Brush Pens 96 color set for a phenomenal price. Normally I use Zigs. I LOVE my Zigs. But I was itching to try the Arteza’s. I have to say that the Arteza pens were worth the price the only drawback is the size of the tip. They are great for coloring a stamp that is not too detailed. But for a stamp that is small and has thin lines I will stick with my Zigs. Each set will have its purpose in my craftroom. Have a Cheerful Day!
