CB Teasers | Snowdrops

Hello there and welcome to the last day of Clearly Besotted Teasers for November. Have you been enjoying them? For my card today I am using the beautiful Winter Blooms set. I have first taken the stunning Snowdrops and stamped them in Versamark and heat set with white embossing powder. These have then been coloured using Copic Markers, adding a little clear WOS to the flower buds.
 
 
I have then added this panel to a white card base, which has a strip of Doodlebug paper along the bottom, with foam tape. The sentiment, from the A Little Sentimental set, has been stamped and cut out using the banner die from the Tag Along die set. This has also been added to the card with foam tape and I have added a few Doodlebug Sprinkles to finish.

CB Teasers | Get Whale Soon

Hello there and welcome to another day of Clearly Besotted Teasers. Not long to wait now, the new products will be available to purchase tomorrow evening. My card today uses the new Whale Done stamp set - it is so cute!
 

I first stamped the whale on to a panel of white cardstock using Memento Summer Sky ink. I then went over this using my Copic Markers and added the detail to the eye with a black Copic Multiliner. The sentiment, from the same set, has been stamped below in black and the panel adhered to a white card base with foam tape.

CB Teasers | Sweet Christmas

Hello there and welcome to another day of Clearly Besotted Teasers. Are you enjoying them so far? Today I am using  a new set called Naughty or Nice? It is filled with lovely gingerbread and sweet related images for Christmas (although could be used throughout the year I am sure).


I have first taken the gingerbread house and the tree image from the set and stamped them using chalk ink. I then cut these out, added WOS to both along with some Glossy Accents in the window of the house and DB Sprinkles on the door; these were then set aside while I made the base layer. I have first taken some white CS and cut two circles from it, one for the base layer and one I then put back through my Cuttlebug using the Tree Landscape die. I just wanted the landscape flat to resemble snow so I cut off the trees.


I assembled my little scene together, adding foam tape behind the landscape die, the house and tree. I then die cut a banner and stamped the 'have a sweet Christmas' set on it using black ink. This has been added to the scene also. The whole thing has then been added to a white card base.

CB Teasers | Birch Trees

Hello there and welcome to the start of the November Clearly Besotted Teasers. From now until (and including) the 5th, the DT and our two amazing Guest Designers - Pia Krogh Larsen and  Cindy Lovell will be sharing teasers from the new release with you. The new products will be available to purchase on the 5th at 10pm GMT.
 
I have two cards to share today using the new Birch Trees stamp set. The cards have come out very different - one soft and one graphic. For the first card I went with the soft look. I first took a Lil' Inker stitched rectangle and cut this from white CS and then vellum. On the white piece I stamped the birch trees using SSS Smoke and Fog inks.


I then took the Tree Landscape Die and cut this from more white CS, cutting off the trees before adding to the vellum layer. I then took the deer from the already released Woodland Pals set and stamped him with MFT Grout Gray Hybrid ink (a great ink to use when doing the no-line Copic colour technique) and coloured with Copic Markers. He has then been cut out using the matching die and popped on to the scene with foam squares.

 
The sentiment from the Set The Scene stamp set has been stamped using Versamark ink and heat embossed in silver. The little scene has then been added to a white card base.  

SUPPLIES - to be updated upon reelease:

COPIC MARKERS: W4, W2, W1, W00, 0 Blender
 
For my next card I kept it very simple and went for a graphic look. I simply stamped the birch trees in Versafine black ink and then heat embossed using clear embossing powder.


The panel has been cut out and adhered to a white card base. The sentiment, from the same set, has been stamped and heat embossed again, cut into a strip and added on top of the panel with foam squares.

Clearly Whimsy October Blog Hop | Gingerbread Men

Hello there and welcome back to the Clearly Whimsy Stamps October Release. If you are taking part in the hop you should have arrived from the super talented Alanna Moses.
 
For my project today, I thought I would make a little parcel to pop handmade biscuits in for Christmas. I have first taken a tag die and cut this first from white cardstock and then red cardstock. I have then taken the cute little gingerbread man from the Gingerbread People set and stamped it on to a piece of white cardstock. I have then cut him out (there are matching dies available) and popped him on the tag with foam tape. He has had a little coating of clear WOS and some sprinkles added for his buttons.


The sentiment, from the Gingerbread House set,  has been stamped below in black ink. The tags have been tied with twine and added to a glassine bag with a mini clothespin. What is inside of the bag? Gingerbread Men of course! Not homemade though, by Tesco ;)
