Christmas Critters

Hello all! Kia back with you today for Day 3 of the Random Act of Cardness challenges, and today is Critters.

I wanted to play with this new to me stamp set from Avery Elle today. It is such a cute set.

I decided I would use the Picket Fence Stencil Field of Snowy Trees as well. For the trees I used Paper Glaze in the Green, applying a thick layer to my card base. I then set it aside to dry.

In my mini Misti I stamped the images from the set using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. I then coloured using Copic markers and fussy cut when finished. I added a blue snow line and shadow to the card base using Copic markers in B00.

Once the base card as dry I stamped the sentiment using Ranger Archival Ink in Carnation Red. I then added the images to the card using foam squares. I also stamped the snowfall using VersaFine Clair ink in Blue Belle, and coloured with Copic Boo. I then added Nuvo Crystal Drops in Blue Babe to the snowfall. It is snowing very heavy as you can see.

This certainly was a fun card to make for today, and I hope you enjoy it as well.

Getting Ready for Canada Day!

Happy Monday! We’ve got Canada Day coming up this week, and so here’s my Canadian card!

 

 

This cute little Avery Elle stamp and die set is designed by Canadian Elena Roussakis! I stamped and embossed the adorable beaver and coloured him with Copics before die cutting. The larger of the two Whittle Wood Picture Frame dies seemed a perfect way to highlight him. For the background, I added a tiny panel of watercolour paper, that I first dipped in mermaid lagoon and mowed lawn distress ink, then when when dry added a few trees at the horizon. It still needed a little something, so I inlaid a few die cut Paper Smooches maple leaves using a scrap of red cardstock. (Do you still miss Paper Smooches, too? Scrap ‘n Stamp has a few stamp and die sets left if you want to add to your collection!) Finally, I tucked one of the sentiments from the stamp set under the corner of the twig frame.

 

 

Hope you’re looking forward to a great week! If you decide to do some shopping, remember to use 10Lindsey for 10% off your order!

Abstract Florals

Are you ready for some Abstract Florals, made easy with a Penny Black Brushstroke stamps and Tombow markers.

My thought process for both of these cards was my favourite watercolour look, being abstract painting, this time done using a stamp instead of freehand.

I did the card on the right first using Arches cold press watercolour paper and the markers along with my Misti. Starting with the leaves I coloured using turquoise and green. I then spritzed the paper and the stamp with water and stamped, then held the piece up horizontally spritzing the colour on the leaves and stem giving the abstract look. I then dried the area with my heat gun.

Moving on to the flowers, I added three layers of colour. The first colour being Orange, spritzed and stamped, the second Yellow, spritzed and stamp and the final being Dark Pink spritzed and stamped. Again I held the piece up and added more water to the colours allowing them to bleed out.

Once dry I did the splatters using the turquoise marker and water, added in Gold Perfect Pearls mixed with water then splattering on Gouache mixed with water. Finishing off I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Clair ink in Warm Breeze then attached the card to a coral base using foam tape.

For this card I used some of the same techniques, however as I am working with Neenah cardstock I cut down on the water considerably.

I coloured the leaves and stem as previously, using the turquoise and green along with a light spritz of water. For the flowers I used a red marker only. But before colouring I spritzed the floral part of the stamp with water and stamped on the card panel. This activates the card stock, leaving texture where the flowers will be.

I then dried the stamp and coloured using the red marker, and stamped. I did not need more water as the cardstock was still damp from the spritzing. I dried the panel then stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne and attaching to a turquoise card base using foam tape.

I enjoyed making these cards and I hope you have enjoyed them as well. Following are Affiliate links to the store for the products that I have used for this card today, at no extra cost to you.
