I stamped the picked images with alcohol marker friendly black ink to Neenah solar white cardstock with the help of my MISTI. For the coloring I have used alcohol-based Spectrum Noir Illustrators, in the following shades: AG3, AG2, CG1, GY3, CT4, CT3, CT1, TN8, TN7, TN6, BO2, OR1, GB11, GB9, GB5, GB4, GB3, GB2, GB1, GB05, TN3, TN1, FS9, RB1, RB2, EB1, EB5, EB6, EB8, MG1, PP5, PPP3, PPP1, PV3, PV1, BP2, BP1, LV2, LV1, LV05, BG6, BG3, BG1, BT5, True Black, Blender. For the coloring process please visit the video tutorial.
When the coloring was done, I run the images through my die-cut machine with their coordinating dies, and followed the die-cutting process first with scalloped frames. Because these cards will be mini cards, I have used the smaller die.
I also made some waves from light teal cardstock with the new stitched Waves die-set, and I have also made a stitched border for the sand from Neenah Solar White cardstock, and made a quick ink blending on the sea with Broken China and with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo on the sand.
I stamped and heat embossed the sentiments fromSummer Drinks and Nautical stamp set, and run them through my die-cut machine with its coordinating dies.
In the end I styled my card and put them together with 3D adhesives. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.
Hi, it’s Mona here, if you want to know how to heat emboss your die-cuts in bulk, or how to create rainbow images in less than 1 minute per die-cut, don’t miss my newest video tutorial on Pretty Pink Posh YouTube Channel.
I stamped the images with watermark ink and heat embossed them with white and gold embossing powders. For the useful tips how I did it in bulk and how I saved lots of time, check the video out.
Instead of coloring, I made an ink blending through the Hibiscus Stencilwith yellow, turquoise and pink inkpads and blended them together. The result was this pretty rainbow look.
Next, I created the card fronts. I made soft pink and teal die-cuts with the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows die set, then I splattered on them with white, teal and pink watercolors.
I started by stamping the adorable images from the Summer Fun stamp set. I colored the images with Copics and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.
For the background I used the Layered Surfboards Stencil set. I used distress inks to blend in the color and flicked on a little Mermaid Lagoon & Picked Raspberry at the end.
I used the Stitched Waves dies with three shades of aqua cardstock and staggered them along the bottom of the blended panel & popped it onto a white card base. I added the cute Summer Fun critters along with a few Sparkling Clear sequins for embellishment.
Good morning, friends! Lindsey here and I’m so happy to share a card with you today. I have had so much fun creating with the June Release, and have especially been enjoying the stencils. The Hibiscus Flowers Stamp Set is one of my absolute favorites, and the new Hibiscus Flowers Stencils make it even easier to create cards using with it.
I started my card by stamping several hibiscus flowers and palms onto white cardstock. The Hibiscus Flowers Stencils made quick work of adding color to the images. I used blending brushes, so I could keep the colors light. While I had the blending brushes out I used the Circles Stencil to lightly stencil circles onto my card base, fading the color out toward the edges. Don’t you just love the large size of these circles?! I’m completely smitten. Okay, next I used the Hibiscus Flowers coordinating dies to cut out the flowers and palm leaves. Once, I had a pile to work with, it was easy to create an arrangement to fill the side of my card.
I’m a big fan of the script dies, and I especially adore the larger size of the Miss You Script Die. The script dies are more delicate by nature and I really wanted the sentiment to be the strong focal point, so I decided to add a second layer to it. I die cut the sentiment in black, adhered it to a white piece of cardstock, and then used scissors to trim around the entire outline. Finally, I popped it up in the middle of my card.
This card came together so easily and was a joy to create. I hope you are having just as much fun with your June Release goodies!
I stamped the images with alcohol marker friendly brown inkpad and colored the images with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator and Classique Markers.
The used colors: LY1, LY2, CT1, CT2, CT4, GY3, BO1, BO2, OR1, OR2, BG5, BG6, BG8, EB7, TN1, FS9, BG1, BG6, BT1, JG2, AG1, AG2, CG1, TB2, TB5, LV3, HB3, LV2, PL2, BP1, BP2, BP3, BP4, PP1, FS2, PV1, MG2, Blender. Classique’s: BG05, TN05, CG05, MG05, BG05. Check out the coloring processes with useful tips in the video. After the coloring I added white highlights with white pen and pencil as well.
The next step was the card front. I created a die-cut with the larger die from the Slimline Peekaboo Windows, then I stamped the Life is an adventure sentiment from Nautical stamp set with watermark ink, and heat embossed it with white fine embossing powder.
After this process I made a quick ink blending on it with Cummerbund and All That Jazz inkpads by Catherine Pooler. When it was done, I splattered It with clear water and let it dry.
In the end I styled my card and put it together with 3D adhesive. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.
Next, I colored the images with Spectrum Noir Illustrator and Classique Markers. The used colors are: BT1, BT2, BT3, BT5, BT6, CT1, CT3, FS9, TN1, TN2, TN3, TN6, TN8, EB5, RB3, RB1, CR2, True Black, Blender. Classiques: BT05. For the coloring process with useful tips visit the video tutorial. After the coloring I added white highlights to the images with white pen and pencil as well.
I wanted to make this card from the front of the motor boat, so I created one with die-cutting. I made the windshield from silver glitter cardstock. First, I run it through my die-cut machine with the Stitched Borders 1 dies, and repeated the process with the Stitched Gift Card Holdersas well on each side.
When it was done, I have created one more die-cut with the Stitched Border1 dies, but this time from vellum as a glass of the windshield. Next, I cut a piece of teal cardstock to the boat and I also made some die cuts from brown woodgrain cardstock as well. To the front of the boat, I will use a negative piece of die-cut what I made again with the stitched border dies and to the back of the ship I have created a brown die-cut with the scalloped border dies. When I had all my parts prepared, I made on them a quick ink blending to add a bit shadow, and adhered them together.
Next, I stamped the I love you, sentiment to my card base with watermark ink, then I heat embossed it with fine white embossing powder.
After this process I made a quick ink blending with Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon distress oxide inks to the sea. When it was done, I continued the blending of the sky with Blueprint Sketch and Chipped Sapphire distress oxide inks to create that perfect bright sky.
After the ink blending, I run the card front through my die-cut machine with the wave dies from the Nautical die set. I have also created 3 die cuts with the Dad script die, adhered them together, but I shifted the bottom part a bit to have a sparkly shadow.
In the end I just put every piece to its right place, and this lovely nautical card was ready. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.
Hello everyone! This is Yana Smakula, thank you for joining me! Today I have a slimline card to share featuring gorgeous daffodils, just in time for Spring!
Here is a video so you can see how everything came together.
I am using the Daffodil stencil. This stencil can be used alone, by itself, but it can also be combined with 2 other products for easy coloring. The stencil coordinates perfectly well with the Daffodil stamp set, and it also coordinates with the Daffodil coordinating dies, so you can combine all 3 to quickly create, color, and cut beautiful images for your cards.
I started to work on my card by ink blending the images in Distress Oxide inks onto Neenah Solar White 80lb cardstock. I picked several colors of distress oxide inks – Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed and Wild Honey to ink blend the flowers.
I started with the Squeezed Lemonade as my base color. Next, I added a bit of Mustard Seed to add shading to the petals and a bit of Wild Honey to the flower centers.
I prefer to work with these products by doing the ink blending first, do my stamping 2nd and die cut the images out 3rd. The reason behind it is I like to offset the stamping over the ink blending and I like to use Versafine Onyx Black ink for my stamping and if I ink blend over it, the oxide inks dull and mute the black a bit. So I prefer to ink blend, stamp, die-cut. You can also stamps, ink blend, and die-cut.
When ink blending the flower centers I tried to ink up just the edge of my blending tool and use just that edge to apply color. I love how easy it is and how simple it is to add color to these images using the stencil – you don’t have to think much, and it doesn’t take a lot of time. You can make a bunch of daffodils in no time.
With my ink blending done, I placed the panel inside my mini misti tool and stamped the image outlines in black. Next, I cut these images out using coordinating dies.
I knew I would need to add a touch of purple to my card, I love to combine yellow with purple, so I used my Crocus stamp set to stamp and color a few images. I used Copic markers in YG17, YG03, and YG01 markers to color the grass; BV11, BV00, and BV000 markers to color the flowers. These also have coordinating dies and so I cut them out.
I wanted to include as many daffodils on my card as I could, and for that, I knew I’d need to make a bigger card, so I opted for a slimline one. I cut a white cardstock panel to 3 ⅛” x 8 1/8” to make a background.
From here, I foam mounted the images onto the panel – I already had a plan in mind, I wanted to add a daffodil or a cluster of daffodils and add one crocus to add some purple color. I also added the leaves and the grass pieces to build my background.
I foam-mounted all of the pieces as I like to have dimension on my card. Next, I used my scissors and trimmed the excess off. To create a sentiment I stamped one that reads Sending You Smiles Across the Miles, it comes from the Encouraging Greetings stamp set and cut it out to a circle using a die. I foam mounted it onto the card. I also foam-mounted the background panel onto a slimline card base. The card base measures 3 1/2 x 8 1/2”.
Hi crafty friends! It’s Mona here, today I am sharing with you a new video tutorial where I am showing you how I colored these birds and florals with some shaker card tips as well.
I stamped the images with alcohol friendly inkpad and colored the images with Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers. If you got inspired, check back here to see this coloring guide.
I have used other colors too: BT4, BT3, BT2, BT1, AG2, AG1, CG2, CG1, OR1, BO1, CT4, CT3, CT1, GY3, PL2, HB3, HB2, HB1, PV1, MG2, MG1, BP1, PP2, PP1 and the colorless Blender. You can watch the coloring processes with useful tips in the video. After the coloring I added white highlights with white pen and pencil.
The next step was the sentiment. I stamped the sentiments from the Happy Mail and the Everyday Greetingsstamp sets with watermark ink to the vellum and heat embossed it with white detailed embossing powder.
The following step was to create the shaker parts. First, I have created teal and pink die-cuts with the largest die from the Slimline Peekaboo Windowsdie set, as well as two white scalloped frames for each card with the Slimline Scallop Frames. I have also cut two pieces of vellum in the same size.
Then I put the card together with a trick using the Original MISTI. If you are interested in this trick, just click on the video.
When my shaker was done, I adhered the colored images to their right place, and adhered it to the card base. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time.
For this first card I used the Spring Flowers Stencil Set in the traditional sense. First I blended three different green distress inks using the leaf stencil, and then I used the stencil with the blooms and added some warm floral colors. I also added a few flicks of Crushed Olive to the blended panel.
For this next card I used the Spring Flowers Stencil Set in a more unexpected way. I created a wreath using only the leaf stencil.
I flicked a bit of Mermaid Lagoon distress ink on the blended panel, and for the sentiment I used the Mom Stamp Set. For embellishment I used a mixture of Sparkling Clear Sequins & Ivory Jewels.
I hope you were inspired by today’s video tutorial. Thanks for stopping by!
