Outline Hello

The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is: anything goes.

I've used the Stamp Market Outline Hello and the Woodware Hello stampset for my card, sadly no Hero Arts.

I also filmed it for somewhere in July, but I couldn't wait to share it as usual haha.
So I diecut the Hello from black card with double sided tape on the back.

I've heat embossed another panel with double sided tape on the back. I've used Wow Bang powder and then diecut.
I used the negative of the Hello to position my black outline and then added the blue.
Stamped the sentiment on the same black card and heat embossed it with Wow also:

Opaque bright white, super fine, mounted it with foam tape.

I didn't add anything else, like sequins or enamel dots. as I want the blue speckled letters to grab all the attention they deserve,

AAA Cards Challenges #168: One Corner + Masking, with video

This fortnight our Challenge is: ONE corner + the option to use masking. It was Ceal's choice.

Our sponsor is: CAS-ual Fridays and you could win a $20 giftcard.

For my card I used a digi from Whimsy Stamps called Beach Gnomes and I printed it on Crafter's Companion Neenah ultra smooth paper, cut it out and then coloured it with alcoholmakers.

For the card base, I masked off the beach first and applied Distress oxides Tumbled glass in the lower right corner, splattered it with water, but I doubt you can see it, Tumbled glass is very light.
Then Masked off the sky/sea and applied Antique linen for my beach, added a few

dots with markers as if sand grain.

The sentiment is from Skull and Cross buns and I stamped it with Versafine Clair ink.
Mounted the gnome with foamtape on top.

Solid and outline

The new Less is More challenge is just that: solid and outline stamps.

For my card I used the Proost set from Carlijn Design. It consists of and outline that I stamped in black with Versafine Clair ink and a solid stamp of bubble drinks. I inked each letter in a different colour with Memento inks.
The glasses are from the set Snijmallen, Bier, wijn en cocktails. I diecut them from light blue card for the glasses and icecubes and white for the drinks and straws, stuck it all together.

Proost means cheers, or skál, or slainte, salute etc, and underneath let's drink to that.

A Little bit of Sunshine

That would be great, altough sunny at the moment, it feels like it will rain foor 40 days and nights.

The Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is: Sprays and splashes.
The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is: Summer fun, showcaisng Penny Black.

I've only used Penny Black for the sentiment, It's from Happy Snippets. I didn't feel any of the other set I have were Summery, so for the images I've used  the Ahoy Matey set from Whimsy Stamps.
I colored them with liquid watercolors and cut them out,

The background is inkblended Distress

Oxides on a cardbase with added white foam. For the splashed I've used Distress Spray Stain Mermaid Lagoon and Shimmer Sprits Sparkle.

I've stamped the sentiment on a strip of Kraft card as if that's the beach, cut it out and mounted it on the cardbase with foamtape.

Use don't hoard your stash #20 wet in wet technique with alcohol inks

Ho Ho Ho

Yes it's early, but the Sketch from the Male Room Challenge, kinda reminded me of Santa's belt and suit.

The Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is: It's a man thing.
The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is:  something metallic.


For my card I cut a cardbase for a 6x6inch card, covered it in red cardstock.
Cut out the belt from metallic gold carstock. At  first I  made it smaller with the stitched nesting dies, but my sentiments wouldn't fit. I had pulled out the Simon Says Stamp Merry Christmas SSS101644, but then I remembered this Ho Ho Ho from Honey Bee stamps set called Falala. So instead of looking for another sentiment, I made the gold belt bigger. I kind of like the Ho Ho Ho, as that what Santa's says a lot, so it reinforces the fact it's Santa's belly...I think..hehe

I stamped it with Versafine and heat embossed Wow opaque bright white super fine  on the belt, I made that simply with a strip of black cardstock. adhered everything onto the cardbase with taperunner

Christmas Craft Creations : June Theme: Christmas Trees. With video

The June theme for the Christmas Craft Creations is: Christmas trees.

For my card I diecut a mask with a tree borderline from masking paper and applied it to the cardbase.

I applied Distress Oxides for my wintry sky : Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Mermaid Lagoon, Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire.

Then I splattered white Dylusion spray pain , Kuretake White ink and Ranger Distress Spray stain Brushed Pewter.

Removed the mask and then stamped the sentiment from My Favorite Things Bitty Holiday Wishes. I've used Versamark ink and Papermania Superfine Silver embossing powder to echo the silver splatter.

AAA Cards Challenge #167 OneLayer + inspired by the graphic, with video

This fortnight the AAA Cards Challenge is: ONE layer and to be inspired by the graphic as an optional twist.

Our sponsor is Stamplorations and you could win $15 credit to their digi store.
For my card I used the Daisy Butterfly stamp from Katzelkraft. I stamped it in Versafine Clair Nocturn ink and then sprinkled it with Wow Clear gloss embossing powder and heat set it.

This because I wanted to do a more liberal watercoloring, messy if you like and the  embossing powder with help to cantain my "mess" , I've used Talens Ecoline for this.

For my sentiment I've used the Clearly

Besotted Tiny Type set, a modern, no nonsense  font, I use a lot.

Along the border

The Less is More Challenge is: Borders.

For my card I used a border die from Time 2 craft and cut the edge from a cardpanel.
Stamped the sentiment from Uniko (Simply said blocks Christmas) on the panel with Versafine Clair ink.

On the cardbase I glued some blue glitter card. Mounted the panel with foamtape and added it on top.

Masculine

Masculine is the challenge for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, showcasing Your Next Stamp.

For my card I used the Your Next Stamp set called  Great Catch. Stamped it with Versafine Clair ink and colored it with Zig clean color real brush pens.

Diecut the polaroid frame from Sugar Pea Designs (Polaroid Journal card) a few times from white card and once from black, I wanted to  make a shadow with it, but it looked weird,so I just stacked them all.
Put the fishing bear behind it and stuck it all on a card. No frills and no embellishments, for a more masculine feel. Also he's fishing, I think that's a man's hobby lol. The smile is from the same Polaroid set and I diecut it from black card and stuck in on the front.

There's a new AAA Birthday Challenge and I forgot to check it this morning...shame on me..yesterday: "I said to myself, I think an new one will start, don't forget to check", well that didn't work lol.

Anyyway the challenge is a birthday card, of course, and to use vellum.

The Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is: make your own background, showcasing Paper Rose, but I have none, sadly. There's a few on my wishlist , but they'll never make it in time...

For my card I used alcohol inks on vellum:  Mermaid, Aqua, Turquoise, Denim and Pool, all of them Ranger inks.
The see through window is from Memory Box ( Under the sea collage) and I diecut it from a sturdy cardpanel. Stamped the sentiment from My Favorite Things (Soak up the fun), I've used Versafine Clair ink.

Added the vellum to the cardbase with taperunner along the edges, hidden underneath the  borders of the window and added  the panel on top.
