Off to Great Places

Time to post another card that I actually completed last year, but never got around to actually showing here on my blog.  This image is a wonderful digital available from Saturated Canary.

 

The image was stamped on watercolor paper with Versafine Onyx Black ink, then painted with Distress inks.  After the coloring was completed, I used the Wonky Squares spellbinders dies to cut both the image and the patterned paper that are on the front of the card.  The tassel was made with embroidery thread to add a touch of dimension to the card.  Dp is from Moxie.

Under the Sea!!

New month, new challenge theme for One Crazy Stamper, and this month we are looking for your ANYTHING GOES projects.  The design team has the chance this month to work with a wonderful sponsor, so all of our cards will feature images from HIGH HOPES STAMPS!

 

 My first card this month has the adorable "Willy's Sandcastle" image available here.  I have colored the image with Copics, then used Judikins Diamond Glaze to give the googles the look of glass.  To create the shaker card I have used several sizes of the Spellbinders circles dies, some acrylic and diamond dust, and 3d foam tape.  The dp is from Bo Bunny's Key Lime collection.

Butterflies Rule!!!!!!!!

Well it's cold and blustery out today, so what would be better than to post a bright spring card to warm everyone up!  My card today features a great Eat Cake Graphics image entitled "Butterflies Rule".


 

I stamped and colored her with my Copic markers, fussy cut the entire image, and then placed it on top of a beautiful Memory Box butterfly die.  The body of the butterfly was covered with microfine glitter using the burnishing technique, and then colored with Copics.  The card front features an older Prima paper with the sentiment handwritten randomly across it.



Cool Beach Scene



This month has been a lot of fun working with One Crazy Stamper's sponsor images by YOUR NEXT STAMP, and my last card for the month features the Cool Beach Owl Set.

 

For the card front I decided to use my Copic Airbrush System to create a beach scene, using BG01, BG02, and E55.  I then colored the image with my Copic Sketch markers, fussy cut it, and popped it up on the card front.  I added white highlights with the Sakura white glaze pen, and used one of the included sentiments from the stamp set to make a frame around the card.  The sun accent is from my stash!

Christmas Love

Time to show another Christmas creation using a Sugar Nellie ( Funky Kits ) image!

 

Today's card is "On the Wings of Love", a digital image available at Funky Kits.  After printing the image on Copic Xpress It paper, and coloring it with Copics, I used a Spellbinder die to cut the finished image. Smooch Illuminate Top Coat adds shimmer to the wings, blue pearls created with a Viva Décor Pearl pen and hints of gold added with a Metallic pen add the finishing touches to the image. The dp is from Carta Bella, and the snowflake border is from Whimsy Stamps

Bear Hugs to You!!!

It's Terrific Tuesday Time again for One Crazy Stamper, and my card this month features an adorable image from our sponsor this month which is YOUR NEXT STAMP.  Be sure to check out the design team blog and then get crafting to enter this months challenge theme of ANYTHING GOES!  For full details click here.



 

This sweet image is the YNS image Kyle the Koala Bear, which I colored with Copics.  I started by coloring the body, and then using the terry towel technique with Copic Blender Solution, creating the fur texture of the bear.  After completing the coloring I used a Spellbinder die to cut out and mat the image.  The dp is from an older Authentique collection, while both of the sentiments are included with the image.

The Kid in Us All

Once again I have used my Copic markers to color today's card, which is another digital image from Sugar Nellie entitled "Penguin Party".

After the image was colored I used Polar White Flower soft on the fur of the hat, and added sparkle to the ribbon and presents with a Sakura Clear Star pen.
