Tombow Markers

Red Mittens

I have named this card Red Mittens. Kia here with you today to share Red Mittens, which is an older stamp by Penny Black. I am using another older stamp, also by Penny Black called Berry Bramble.

I decided for this card that I would use Tombow markers for my colour, using only 4 markers, which I have linked to below. Several years back I cut this set to separate the mittens, as I wanted to use them differently. When perusing Facebook today I saw a card by Michelin Jourdain, and loved how she hung the mittens, hence I did my version.

When I finished colouring the berries and the mittens I painted on Tumbled Glass oxide ink using a damp paint brush. I then fussy cut the left mitten, styled it and arranged on the card. In my Misti I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Clair ink in Blue Belle, with the joy done using VersaFine Clair Ink in Tulip.

I attached the piece to a Gina K Design Red Velvet card base, and added a bunch of splatters using Winsor Newton Gouache.

It was fun giving some love to my older stamps. I like to bring them out every now and then, and show them off. I do hope you have enjoyed this trip down memory lane.

SHE …

Hello all, Kia here with you today for Day 15 of the Random Act of Cardness Challenges. My challenge is on Brush Stroke Stamping. I realize on the list it only says Brush, I think they ran out of room. 🙂

We planned our challenges back in April, but as luck would have it Penny Black just put up the above Video on the subject, and she used the same stamp as I have. Fortunately we have used different colours and layouts.

I use a different technique than Jill does, and over on my blog I have gone into a lot of detail about how I do it. I also have a few more pictures of the progression of colours.

When I was done with my colouring, using the grid and magnets of my Stay-tion and a stencil, (tape can be used) I brushed on Buttercup Ink in opposite corners of my card front. I then stamped the “SHE” and heat embossed with gold embossing powder, then stamped the rest of the sentiment using VersaFine Clair Ink in Green Oasis.

To finish up I added Midas Touch Shimmering Pen to the Butterfly. I matted with Gold Mirror cardstock, then a Red Cherry Gina K Design card base. I then added a scattering of Crystal Dew Drops around the card.

I hope you enjoy this card today and wish to thank you for visiting us here at Scrap’n Stamp. A reminder when shopping in the Store to use my Discount Code 10KIA.

Penny Black Harmony

No Comments 11 Aug Sandi MacIver

Hi crafting friends, Sandi MacIver here and I’m honored to share a new card idea with you today created with the New – Just arrived Penny Black Harmony stamp.

It was LOVE at first sight with this stamp and I decided to watercolor it with my Tombow Markers.

I started by black heat embossing the image into a piece of watercolor paper.

Then I colored the image with my Tombow Markers. The Tombow Marker Dual Tip Markers are water-based and create fabulous watercolor images combined with a water brush pen. Just add some color and blend with the water brush – Yep, it’s that easy!….
TIP – do a small section at a time though, so the ink doesn’t dry out, then it becomes hard to move.

The colors I chose are #379, #403, #291 From THIS SET of 9, and Chocolate Brown #969 to do the shadows and leaves.

Here’s a video showing how I like to watercolor with these fabulous markers….it’s super easy. You can view it here, or in HD over on my my YOUTUBE Channel .

The video also walks you step by step through the creation of today’s card.

Next I used two dies from the Taylored Expressions Stitched Square Stacklets to create a frame for my pretty flowers.

I white heat embossed a sentiment on a scrap of black card stock and then created a watercolor background with my Gansai Tambi watercolors #47 – brown and #57 Teal Blue.

Finally, after putting the card together, I added a few drops the NEW Nuvo Stone Drops in Gold Rush – you are so going to love this color for your vintage cards….it Rocks!

Ok, that’s it for me today. I hope you enjoyed my Penny Black Harmony Card and I have listed the products I used today below in affiliate links directly to the Scrap ‘N Stamp site.
