When A Tiger Becomes A Cat

Hello there, today I have a card to share using the Mama Elephant Luna Animals stamp set. A cat is not part of the Chinese Zodiac but I thought the tiger could be made in to one, so that is what I did! :)

 

I started off by taking a panel of white cardstock and cutting this using the ME rectangle Femme Frame die. I then took the hat from the set and stamped this on to the panel first. This was then masked off with masking paper. The cat (or tiger!) was then stamped on top. When taking off the masking paper, it looks like the cat is wearing a part hat! The images were then coloured using Copic Markers.

 

The sentiment, from the ME Woodland Gifts stamp set, was stamped below the image. The panel was then adhered to an A2 white card base that I have added a piece of patterned paper to, using foam sheet. To finish off, I added white dots to the party hat with a gel pen, and Glossy Accents to the cat's nose.

Flora

Hello there, I am back to share another card using Purple Onion Designs stamps. This time I am using the super cute Flora image.

I started off by stamping Flora on to a piece of white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I then coloured her in using Copic Markers. I added small polka dots on to her scarf using a white gel pen and I added some Wink of Stella to it also. The sentiment, from the Clearly Besotted Many Mini Messages set, was stamped beside using the same black ink.

I then took a 4x5" card base and added a sheet of paper from the Echo Park Dots & Stripes Winter paper pad on to the front. The panel was then added on top with foam sheet. I finished off by adding a little Glossy Accents to Flora's beak.

CB Teasers | Sprinkles On Top

Hello there, I am back today with another Clearly Besotted teaser. Today I am using the new With Sprinkles stamp set (there is a matching die set too). This is a great set which could be used for lots of different occasions. For my card I first took the doughnut images - they come in layers so that you can stamp in different colours and mix and match :) I stamped the actual doughnut part using Wheat chalk ink, the icing part next using Pixie Pink ink and then I added the sprinkles on top with Pink Petunia ink. I stamped these twice, on the second one I cut a little 'bite' out of it. I then liberally covered the icing part in Glossy Accents and set aside to dry.

 

For the card base I took a white card base (A2) and added a sheet of paper on the front from the EP Dots & Stripes collection. I then took a panel of white cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the set on to it with black ink. This was then adhered to the card base with my ATG. Once dried, the doughnuts were fussy cut out (I didn't use the dies as I didn't want the white border showing for this particular design) and added on top with foam tape.

Clearly Besotted Challenge - Colour

 

Hello there and welcome to a new Clearly Besotted Challenge. The challenge this month is a colour challenge. We want you to use all or some of these beautiful colours ...

 

 SOURCE

 

I have to admit I do struggle with colour challenges sometimes but in this case the inspiration picture really helped. I took out my Think Of You set and used the orchid image. My purples came out a little pink toned compared to the picture but I hope that's ok. I first took a sheet of white PTI CS (you can use this for watercolours if you do not use too much water) and stamped and embossed the image on to it. I then cut the right side of it off going around the side of the image. 



 

I have coloured the image using TH Distress Markers as watercolours and then added a little clear WOS in certain parts. The sentiment from the Fabulous Fuchsias set has been stamped in SSS Fog ink (it is a little difficult to see it in the photo but in real life it matches the PP perfectly and is more noticeable). I have then taken this panel and added it to a white card base (with 3D foam tape) which has a strip of fawn coloured polka dotted paper down the side. I have then finished off with a few rhinestones.
