Color it - Create It - Show it off! May Challenge Reminder

 Hey Everyone! 

Wow, where has the time gone, can not believe we are half way through May already.  So its that to remind you all of the challenger running over on the Color it - Create It - Show it off blog whereby as usual anything goes, for more details or to enter click here.


This is a card I made for a friends daughters 8th birthday whom loves lounging around in pj's.  Firstly I started off by downloading the digital image and then printing it out via my printer on paper of a reasonable weight and that is suitable for colouring with alcohol markers.  I printed her out so that 2 of the images fitted on a A4 piece of paper.  Once printed I coloured in the image using spectrum noir triblend brush pens and pro-markers.  As I printed off two images I decided to colour both so I could then choose which one I preferred.

 

On a 8 by 8 card blank I then using Time for Tea Designs Dandelion stencil, a blender brush and my distress oxide kitsch flamingo - I created a background of dandelions and using post it notes I was able to mask off bits that I didn't wish to use allowing me to cover the whole area.


 

Following that I cut down my chosen image into a rectangle before adding stars in blue ink to the background using a blender brush for blue inks and falling stars stencil.


Then I layered the image onto a piece of black card stock slightly larger than the image.  From my collection of dies I die cut a banner in white card before stamping birthday wishes on it and cutting into two halves ( I stamped wishes upside so that the banners would be the same direction).  To the banner pieces I then added a pink shade using the blender brush i used earlier when creating the background.  Then I stuck all the sections down to the card blank.



Hope you have enjoyed reading my blog post today, stay safe and take care.  Please feel free to leave any comments below they are very much appreciated.

Crafty hugs!

TLC Designs - two cards completed

Image
Hey all! Hope you are all well.  So today I wanted to share two cards I've made using a new company to me (TLC Designs), which I happened to stumble across; the cards are using the company's digital products while I await arrival of my stamps and dies. As with the majority of my blog posts you can find a list of the products used along with a link to them at the end of this post. Pumpkin Gnome Card So firstly for the first card I printed the digital image of the gnome out and then coloured the image using Crafters Companion Spectrum Noir Triblend brush pens, before cutting the image out. I also printed the leaf patterned paper and sentiments which came from the Jack O'Gnome digital stamp set.   On a 7 by 7 inch white card blank I then stuck down the bronze embossed card using red liner tape, which I had cut down to 6 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches, before then sticking the leaf patterned paper on top of the bronze card (the leaf paper was 6 inches by 6 inches). I then cut out t...

I then stuck the pick hammered card to the floral paper on a slight angle before adhering the image to the pink card but this time sticking it straigh...
