Your Next Stamp Sketch Challenge: Puddles of fun

You still have time to play along Your Next Stamp challenge Challenge 178: Sketch  For my second take, I created a rainy scene with the Puddles of fun stamp set. The card was entirely colored with alcohol markers   To start, I stamped the chicks and then drew lines in the background to match with the sketch challenge. I colored the 2 layers of ground with alcohol markers. I also made a few dots here and there to give some texture.  For the sky, I used Copic brush markers to create vertical lines in shades of gray. I then  went over with the blender to create lighter lines to create a rainy effect. I colored the two chicks with alcohol markers and then added white accents on the chicks and rain drops with a white gel pen. Would you like the chance to win a YNS store e-gift card?

Today, I am sharing another inspiration with the Crafty Meraki Oh baby stamp set. Can you tell I crushed on this set? For this card, I also used elements from the Crafty Meraki Valentine stamp set (the two cloud shapes and the birds) To start, I die cut the front panel with My Favorite Things Slimline Starter die I ink blended Distress oxides Spun sugar and Kitsch flamingo, using the My Favorite Things Cloud stencil I stamped all images on white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. I added a few details on the cheeks with a white gel pen. I then used the coordinating dies for the Oh baby set and the Valentine I adhered all the elements on my front panel with liquid adhesive and added a few red heart embellishments, using the Hero Arts heart confetti die to contrast with the pink background. Thank your for stopping by and have a great day! #craftymerakidt #craftymerakistore #craftymeraki Oh Baby and Valentine #mftdienamics Slimline starter #mftstencil Cloud #tsukineko Memento

Sympathy card

Needed a sympathy card. I used the new #simonsays Orchid Rose bouquet stamp set and a French sentiment (Translation: Take care) from the Juste comme ça stamp set from #marielngeffray #heroarts Intense black ink #distressink #card #cardmaking #handmadecards #diycards #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #onelayercard #watercolor #watercoloring #sympathycard

Weather friends

Here are 2 cards I made yesterday with the #clearlybesotted Whatever the weather fun stamp set. I also used the #mftstencil Mini cloud edges for the sky and the #whimsystamps Rain drops background.  Sadly, those two cards match too well with today's weather To create these cards, I stamped the images and masked them. I then masked the upper and bottom part of my panel with masking paper and ink blended Distress oxide Pumice stone I then blended some Distress Ink Pumice stone, using the MFT Mini cloud edge stencil. I unmasked everything and stamped the sentiments. I then colored the images with Copic markers. Once the backgrounds were completely dry, I stamped the Rain backdrop with Versamark and heat embossed clear powder. #tsukineko Memento ink #inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Pumice stone #distressink Pumice stone #copic #versamark #wowembossingpowder #sakura Gelly roll pen #card #cardmaking #carkmakingofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #handmadecar

Bear hugs

Sharing 3 cards I made this morning with the @paperieink Hapbee and Bear hugs stamp sets. For the background, I used the new #mftdienamics Beehive die as a stencil and the #heroarts Clouds & grass scenic stencil   To create these cards, I die cut the front panel from white cardstock and did one more to create the Beehive stencil. I die cut the extra panel with the Beehive die and reserved it. I stamped the images, starting from the front to the back and masked all images. I placed my Beehive stencil on top of the panel, placed the Grass scenic stencil on top of it and ink blended the grass with Twisted citron and Rustic wilderness. I then placed the other side of the stencil on top of the grass and ink blended the sky with Tumbled glass and Salty ocean on the edges.   I removed the stencils, unmasked and colored the images with Copic markers. #paperieink #tsukineko Memento ink #inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Tumbed glass, Salty ocean, Twisted citron and Rustic wilderness

Let's be naughty!

I'd been looking for a while for angels and devils stamps sets, having that kind of card in mind. My dream came true thanks to Sweet November Stamps and Whimsy Stamps! Hope you'll find this card fun and inspiring  To create this card, I started by stamping the 3 images on white cardstock with Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo black ink (a Copic-friendly ink). I also stamped the images on masking paper, fussy cut the masking paper and then masked the images on my card.   With the Hero Arts Cloudy sky scene dies, I created two stencils from cardstock with a cloud shape to create the left and right sides of the card. I started by masking the middle of the card with one side of the cloud and then ink blended the flames with the Honeybee Flames stencil and Distress oxides (from top to bottom: Squeezed lemonade, Mustard seed, Spiced marmalade and Candied apple). Next, I removed my Cloud stencil and masked again the middle of the card with the other cloud edges and ink blended the Angel cloud

May all your dreams come true

Today I'm sharing a cute card with one of the adorable bunnies of the Crafty Meraki Don't worry be hoppy stamp set. The sentiment is from the Year of the tiger stamp set, which is a nice way to reuse this stamp set outside the Chinese New Year. The set has various sentiments that can be used throughout the year. For the moon, I used the new My Favorite Things Over the moon die. To create this card, I started by cutting a panel from white cardstock, around 12 x 12 cm. I also die cut the Over the moon die from My Favorite Things from white cardstock and from masking paper. I then placed the cardstock moon die cut onto my panel and drew lines around the moon. I then removed the moon crescent and stamped the little bunny with Antique linen distress ink. I also stamped it on Masking paper and reserved it. I then applied Pebeo drawing gum (masking liquid) onto the bunny and once dry, I started to watercolor the moon with Distress inks: Pumice stone, Hickory smoke and a bit of Black s

Love always

Today I was in a mood for simple cards, trying to make the most of new Valentine's supplies and stamp sets that I've been willing to use since I bought them. I have 5 cards to share today. Here are the first two ones, playing with a bit of ink blending at the back and a big & bold white sentiment. I'm quite happy with that simple look and I think it's perfect for Valentine's Day!   #mftstamps This hug's for you and Straight from the heart #thegreetingfarm Mini-remix Happy #simonsays Love you die #reverseconfetti Valentine sentiments#tsukineko Memento ink #Inkadinkado Masking paper #distressoxide Spun sugar, Worn lipstick and Picked rapsberry #chameleonpens #copic #versamark #wowembossingpowder #trinitystamps Double Bubble mix Heart jelly drops#card #cardmaking #handmadecards #diycards #cardmakingofinstagram #cardmakerofinstagram #cardmakersofinstagram #valentinecard #valentineday #valentine #sssigchallenge
