AAA Colourful Challenge #12 Jan-Feb

 

Hello, this month our colourboard sure is geared  up towards Valentine's day, but I made a birthday card..I don't do Valentine ;-)

For it I diecut the Spellbinders seahorse (Luna the Seahorse) from cardstock I coloured with Distress inks: Picked Raspberry and Kitsch Flamingo.

I colored the eye and cheek  afterwards, the dies cut it, so I just coloured them  and set them back, this is easy with a little bit of sticky take on the back of the seahorse.

For the background I used a circle mask and only added ink on one side. I first used whatever blue was left on my brush as I thought sea or water is blue, not pink. Didn't like it though so I made tried to sway it towards the pink/purple, with whatever was left on my purple brush, then tried to hide it with water splatters....nope..So I made another with just ink left on my pink brush, also splattered with water.

The sentiment is from Studio Katia (Mini  Birthday Greeting) and I stamped it with Versafine ink. It doesn't look that mini to me by the way, but hey, it's pretty.

I look forward to what you come up with, so come and join us and enter you  card here.

Happy Valentine's day

 Hello, today I have a card with the newest digi from Whimsy Stamps and the Dustin Pike line.

I'ts called the Gift of love and it is 1 of 2 new released digistamps.

I printed it and colored it with a bunch of alcohol markers, I mixed and matched a few brands, then cut it out.

For the background I masked off the bottom of my cardfront and applied Distress inks above it: Picked Raspberry, Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar and splattered it with water.

For the sentiment I colored a piece of cardstock with the same Picked Raspberry, on the back I'd put double sided tape and cut it out with the Happy Large Word die.

The "Valentine's day" is from Happy Sayings and I've used Versafine Morning Mist.

I adhered the Happy to the cardbase and mounted the image with foamtape first then adhered it to the card too.

Some white gel pen details to make the heart and nose and eyes shine.

Happy New Year

 

Hello, Happy New Year, I believe today is the last day we're allowed to say it?

 Not sure but don't care, it's always good to be nice to others, right?

For my card I used a Whimsy Stamps digi from the Sylvia Zet line: Celebrate.

At first I thought I can't cut around all those swirly bits, so I diecut the image with the Marque set, and to make a backgorund I traced the shape of the die with colored markers..it looked bette rin my head, so I pit the image aside for a few days and decided to just try and fussy cut the ting, I did chop off a few, sorry.

I colored it with Ohuhu markers and Triblend markers and mounted the image with foam tape.

For this background, I wanted to make a night sky as the little bunny is in a rocket. Shooting into the New Year?

I applied Distress inks trough a circle mask: Villainous Poison, Chipped Sapphire and Prize Ribbon, then splattered with water and silver paint for stars, I did splatter the stars outside the circle, or planet , I thought that was cute.

The sentiment is from Dragon New Year a clear set from Whimsy Stamps and I've ised Versafine ink.

Adhered the image onto the card once everything was dry.

AAA Cards Challenge #281: Anything CAS Goes

 

This fortnight the AAA Cards Challenge is: Anything CAS Goes with the optional Twist of Flies through the air. For my card I've used Nellie's Choice DaDa Dies  (DDD024).  I diecut everything from Colored cardstock. Not sure the white airplane was a good idea, but hey ho...with the blue is definitely gives off KLM vibes.

For the cardbase I've used what ever blue was left on my ink blending brush and a Marianne design Stencil (PS8024)

The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted (Brushed Sentiment) and I stamped it with Versafine black ink.

AAA Birthday Card Challenge #69: Winter Birthday

 Hello this month at the AAA Birthday Card Challenges, we're all about Winter.

For my card I masked off an area at the top of the card and inkblended Distress inks (Shaded Lilac and Tumbled Glass), Splattered with white paint for snow flakes.

The image is a diecut from Marianne design. (LR0740) and I diecut it from the same white cardstock as the cardbase, I contemplated black, but I thought it would look too stark.

Sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps (Simple Sentiment Strips) and I stamped it with Memento Ink (Summer Sky)

Santa got a second job

 You didn't really think Santa only has to work one night a year, right? after Christmas he helps the Toothfairy ;-)

Ok in my head that made sense, but I kept the sentiment somewhat open to interpretation.

I've used a digi from Whimsy Stamps and Sylvia Zet: The Joy of Giving. It's the wings that gave me fairy vibes

I printed it on Copic safe paper and colored the image with Triblend markers, then cut it smaller so I could have a border. For the border I applied Distress inks: Lumberjack Plaid so it looks like a red cardbase.

Then I adhered the panel to the cardbase.

I hope you got a giggle out of it:
