Snowflake Kisses

 

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome back to my Studio! 

Ink n' Splatter has a NEW Winter/Holiday Stamp Set!

SNOWFLAKE KISSES...

"Snowflake Kisses" is a warm & friendly Winter stamp set which can be used all through the Winter Season!I'm sure this lovable duo will bring you, and others, many smiles this season. Everyone must love Snowmen and Bunnies, right?!

 

Color...

I stamped my image on marker paper and colored it with Copic Markers. Then I cut it out using the coordinating die and set it aside to work on my background.

Background...

For my background, I ink-blended a piece of white cardstock using distress oxides, and then lightly spritzed water to lift some of the ink.

 

 

It's hard to see in the pic but, I added a layer of clear acetate above the ink-blended background and below my image and snow drift to add a snowfall of dimension. Then I placed several random snowballs on the top of 

the acetate.

You Make Winter Extra Special...

I stamped my sentiment. "You Make Winter Extra Special", from the Snowflake Kisses Stamp Set and die cut it out using a stitched banner die.

 

 

Finishing Touches...

For my finishing touches, I die cut several winter branches from white card stock and Ink n' Splatter's Gentle Winter Pattern Paper. 

I also added a few sparkly gold dots to tie everything together.

 

I hope I have inspired you to simply create something Fabulously Fun & Heart-Warming to bring you, or someone else, a little bit of joy for the moment.

Paws-atively the Coolest

 

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome back to my Studio! 

Ink n' Splatter has another fun Winter/Holiday Release!

PAWS-ATIVELY WINTER...

"Paws-atively Winter" is a warm & friendly stamp set that will bring you, and others, many smiles this season. Who can resist a fun-loving puppy?! 

Definitely not me! I just had to create this super sweet shaker card using two of these sporty pups.

I stamped my images on marker paper and colored them with Copic Markers. 

For my background, I used Twinkle Berry Winter Pattern Paper on an A2 size card.

 

I die cut several scallop frames to create a home for my shaker bits. Then I attached it with double sided adhesive.

YOU ARE PAWS-ATIVELY THE COOLEST....

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set using a coordinating ink color. and attached it to the outside of the shaker frame.

 

  

FINISHING TOUCHES...

I added  a few winter branches that I die cut from white cardstock. I also added a few more glittery shaker bits to the outside of my card to tie everything together. 

I hope I have inspired you to simply create something Fabulously Fun & Heart-Warming to bring you, or someone else, a little bit of joy for the moment.

Sending Holiday Hugs

 

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome back to my Studio! 

NEW RELEASE DAY!

Today I'm excited to be sharing a sweet Winter ornament I created using one of Ink n' Splatter's NEW  Winter/Holiday images!

I love this image! This is "Holly Reindeer Hugs" She was originally one of my Digi Doodles, but I adapted her for a clear stamp set!

 

 I die cut a stitched circle and ink blended the background with distress oxides and then splattered my background with water and inks.

 

Then I die cut a larger stitched scallop circle for the base of my ornament.

I added a few die cut trees and snow flakes.

 

 Sending Holiday Hugs...

I stamped my sentiment, Sending Holiday Hugs, from the same stamp set and die cut it with a fishtail sentiment die.

 

Let it Snow...

I also die cut a a couple of shapes for the snow and added glittered mounds of snow to the bottom of my ornament! 

Then I attached my image to my ink blended background and mounted it to the base of my ornament with double-sided adhesive to give it a little more dimension.

Finishing Touches...

I finished off my ornament by adding loop at the top that I simply cut and punched a hole to be able to tie some coordinitating baker's twine. I also added a die cut snowflake, more bakers twine, and an enamel dot.

I hope I have inspired you to simply create something Fabulously Fun & Heart-Warming to bring you, or someone else, a little bit of joy for the moment.

Get Well My Friend

 

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome back to my Studio and to my NEW Blog home! 

I'm still updating pics so please be patient. Moving a blog is a lot more work than I thought, but it's worth it!

Get Well My Friend....

Today, I'm sharing a Get Well card I created for a sweet friend. 

I usually share my "cute and whimsical" projects from my illustrations but, I am also huge lover of flowers and Altenew definitely is my go to for Florals.

So today's project had to be different.

It's one of those situations when you feel helpless because you can't help someone you care about, but you wan to do something for them. 

A handmade card almost always brings a smile to someone's face and my friends are definitely in need of some heartfelt smiles!

Rest, Relax, Recover...

So for this card, I decided to use Altenew's Get Well stamp set. I love the  daisies and the tea and honey tray in this set. It was perfect.

I stamped the image with black ink and colored them with Copic Markers.

I also used Ink n' Splatter's Honey Be Sweet Pattern Paper for the background and leaves.

I hope I have inspired you to simply create something Fabulously Fun & Heart-Warming to bring you, or someone else, a little bit of joy for the moment.
