TGF Shaker

I had so much fun making my little card, I created this little aquarium feeling card, with a mermaid in it, using the Little Mermaid Stamp Set, and the coordinating dies. I culoured some water behind here and attempted to make the rest of the card front look like metal!

My Favorite Things – Camp Create Day 4

Print

I know I am doing them out of order, but I am here with another card for Camp Create 2017 over at My Favorite Things stamps! This card is for Day 4 Sensational Sliders!

I used the rest of the images from the Farm Friends set! I really am enjoying doing videos colouring the whole set, then making cards with all the parts of the set!

I used the Surf & Turf slider dies to create this card, it was my first attempt. I learnt a lot going through this process, I attempted to put the two slider elements together with bakers twine, but that flopped them all around so I went with a think piece of cardstock. Worked like a charm!

There is the colouring video (if you watched the video on the prior card you have already seen it)

My Favorite Things – Camp Create Day 1

Print

Hey everyone!  I am a little late getting started, but I am hoping to finish all the badges I will have two of them for you all today, the first one is Wonderful Watercolor! It is one of my favourite mediums (who I am kidding they all are!)

Print

So for today’s card I pulled out the My Favorite Things – Farm Friends stamp set (I am going to try something new on my blog and link all the products used at the bottom of this post so they are easy to find) and coloured it all up, There is a video of me colouring all the images attached at the bottom of the post.

Copic colouring on the cow, watercolor background. Be sure to check my blog for a colouring video!

I kept everything super fun and washy in the background, which is something I have really been enjoying doing for the last little while. An awesome sentiment from the same set and a few dots using my Nuvo Drops and this card was complete! That is why I love doing this backgrounds cards and super fun and easy!

This video also includes colouring for a card that will go up following this one!

Playing Marbles

Hey everyone! Today I have a card to share featuring Playing Marbles from The Paper Shelter. This was a special request card and it took me forever to find and image I liked with kids playing marbles.

I coloured these little guys up with my copic markers, unfortunately I did’t write down all the markers I used, this was a last minute card. But it turned out ever so sweet.

I created the sentiment myself, so that it fit the event and humour of the family that asked for the card.
