Happy Easter

 Hello, Happy Easter.

Today I'm using a pretty sweet digi from Whimsy Stamps and Sylvia Zet: Springtime.

I thought the bunny  and the little chick are very "Easter".

I printed the digi and colored it with alcohol markers, them cut is to make a frame with the card base.

I don't have a Happy Easter stamp so I left it out and could use it for a birthday o or a welcome baby  as well.

You can find the digi in the Whimsy Shop:  https://whimsystamps.com/products/springtime-digital-stamp?_pos=30&_sid=4d4563260&_ss=r

AAA Colourful Challenge #15: Apr-May

Hello, this month  our game badge has blue leaves, but I saw ocean.

So for my card I inkblended a panel with  Distress inks (Salvaged Patina and Peacock feathers), let it dry; made it square for the window then diecut a window from the panel.

It's from Gummiapan (Seagrass) and traced the opening on the cardbase. I inkblended more Distress inks inside the lines (Prize Ribbon, Blueprint Sketch and Salty Ocean and splattered water for a bubble effect. Adhered the panel onto the cardbase.

I might add a fish later, but  for the color challenge, this is it

I look forward to your makes, you can enter them here.

Bunny Beans

 Hello, today I'm using a digi called Bunny Beans from Whimsy Stamps and the Dustin Pike line.

When we were little we played a trick on my younger brother when walking in the sand dunes we saw many a pile of "bunny Beans" and told him they were jelly beans (or kokindjes a licorice in the Netherlands) and he started picking them like it was gold dust ;-) we of course had to tell him at one point not to eat them!

Anyway onto the card: I printed the digi , cut it out and colored it with alcohol markers.

For the back ground I made a mask with the scan and cut as I don't have egg shapes dies, but you could use the Whimsy Stamps nested pierced egg dies.

Through the mask I added Distress inks: Tumbled Glass, Twisted Citron, Spun Sugar, Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold and Shaded Lilac  with whatever was left on the inkblending brushes, just a hint of Easter eggs there for you, didn't want to do them black as if the basket was overflowing, it's Spring and I need Spring colors.

I mounted the bunny with foam tape and adhered him to the cardbase. The sentiment is a nod to the toilet paper roll...

AAA Card Challenge #288: Sketch

 Hello, this fortnight we have a sketch. As always you can rotate or flip the sketch, as long as we can see it. You don't have to use silhouette stamps either, some of our DT didn't.

I really liked the rainbow circle, so I tried to recreate it with Distress inks and a circle mask. I did  hand the circle off the sides.

I've used Distress inks: Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry, Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin, Twisted Citron and Mermaid Lagoon.

The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps: Simple Sentiment Strips.

The images are from Nellie Snellen: Sil050 and I stamped both images and sentiment with Versafine ink.

I Stamped the cat 3 times and gave 2 white feet, like my own ;-)

Bunny Toots

 Hello, today I'm using one of the new digis from Whimsy Stamps and Dustin Pike: Bunny Toots.

I printed it, then cut it out with the Scan n Cut and I also made egg shaped masks on the Scan N Cut, 2 sizes, but ended up covering the small one wiht the digi.

I colored the digi with TriBlend markers this time and mounted it with foamtape.

For the backgorund I've used the mask I  made and applied Distress inks: Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron,Tumbled Glass, Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac.

Adhered the bunny on top.

meowy birthday

 

Hello, today I'm showcasing you a birthday card I made for a friend with Whimsy Stamps and a digi from the Some Odd Girl line.

The digi is called Loveable Kitten and I had to color it black to resemble mine and it's actually Charlie's birthday today, or so we think.

I printed th edigi, cut it out and colored it with alcohol markers, then added some details with a white gel pen.

For the background I masked off a circle and in the circle I applied Distress inks: Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers through more circle masks I made with  circle dies.

I stamped the sentiment from the Simple Sentiment Strips with Versafine ink.

Then I mounted the image with foamtape and adhered it to the cardbase.

You can find all the supplies in the Whimsy Stamps Store.

AAA Birthday Card Challenges #72: Mythical

 Hello, this month it was my turn to choose a theme and I went with mythical beasts, a dragon in my case.

Such a cute dragon too, from My Favorite Things Darling Dragons, doesn't look menacing at all.

For my card I stamped the sentiment with MFT Extreme black ink and coloured it with alcohol markers, then cut him out and mounted him or her with foam tape.

The background I made by masking off an area on the cardbase and applying Distress inks, now it should be two distinct colours, but they kinda merged together, I've used Tumbled Glass and Salvaged Patina.

Splattered with Studio Mow gold glitter spray.

The sentiment is from Studio Katia (MIni birthday Greeting) and I stamped it with Versafine ink.

Adhered the image on top.

I look forward to your Mythical Beasts and you can enter your make here.
