You're super!

Hello everyone! The daily marker 30 day coloring challenge has ended, but thankfully will restart on April 7th. Here I used a few super kids from the Sunny Studios Super duper stamp set. Scroll down for 3 different cards.

Copics: 

Suit: B29, B24, B23, B21 

Hair: E23, E25, E27, E59 

Gloves: C9, C7, C5 

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

The background is Cracked pistacio, Peacock feathers, Mermaid lagoon, Blueprint sketch and Black soot distress inks. I also used the black with the Altenew City scene stencil. Once the ink had dried I added details with a white gelly roll pen.

Very similar card. I'm realizing now that speed wind gust may look like a fart - haha, it's not 🙈

Anyway, I used Squeezed lemonade, Worn lipstick, Picked raspberry and Seedless preserves for the background.

Copics:

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

Boots/belt: 100, C7, C5 

Suit: RV09, RV06, RV4, RV02

Hair: 

I tried putting down both sides of the stencil here, using black for one and blue/pink for the other. Not quite distinct enough, so I added gold gelly roll pen for details.

For the last card I used Tumbled glass, Salty ocean and Chipped sapphire distress inks.

Copics:

Skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

Suit: G29, G17, G14, G40, 100, C7, C5

Hair: YR21, YR23, YR27

I used the same stencil and white gelly roll for details. I'll put these cards in the OSH pile going off the Danish troops around the world to send to their loved ones.

Thank you for stopping by - stay safe!

And happy crafting!

Farm animal fun

Hi everyone! Well, maybe it's this stay-home situation that got to my head, but I needed a little fun. So today I played with Simon says stamp Birthday farm animals. And if you're anything like me, you buy lots of patterned paper that you hold on to for that one special project, but never use. Today I rectified that.

For a little extra fun the balloon was given a layer of stickles AND Nuvo glaze on top.

Copics for piggy: E07, E04, E11, R11, E000

Paper from Lawn Fawn and Reverse Confetti and My favorite things Cross stitch square dies.

Paper from Lawn Fawn cut with MFT Stitched star dies and I added more O's to the Moo sentiment. A cow goes Moooo... Right?

More stickles and Nuvo glaze to the stars. Although stickles don't usually shed I covered with Nuvo glaze because I'm donating these to the Danish operation write home. And there must not be any loose glitter. It can kill.

For this I used Avery Elle bookmark to cut paper from Memory Box and Doodlebug.

Again very simple coloring and Nuvo glaze here and there. And how about that sentiment, so funny.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

I hope you stay safe, and enjoy some extra time crafting and spending time with loved ones.

Movie night with Bella...

Hello Everyone! This is a first for me. One stamped image Stamping Bella Melissa loves movies (well 2, the popcorn is a seperate stamp) and then the whole panel Copic colored freehand. Yikes! I kinda wish I'd stamped the image a little lower, but I'd planned to use a different sentiment.

I wanted it to look like they're cuddled up watching a movie. And from the look of the chicks it must be a horror one, lol!
Copics used:
Skin: E15, E13, E11, E00 + R14, R29
Hair: E49, E18, E39, E35, E53
Suit: RV09, RV06, RV02
Chicks: BG78, BG75, BG72, BG70 + YR27, YR23
Popcorn: E43, E42, E40, YR23, Y00
Box: BG72, BG70
Pillows: E79, E77, E74, E71, E70
Chair: RV99, RV95, RV93, RV91 + E49, E29, E25
Wall: W7, W5, W3, W1
Floor: E40, E41, E42, E43, E44, E47, E49

The sentiment is also a first one for me. It's handwritten.I just couldn't help myself. A) It's a Stamping Bella stamp. B) It's a line from one of my favorite movies and it could be what they're watching. Can you guess which movie? Schroll down... And C) My daughter's name is Annabella, and although we don't actually call her Bella it does still fit the bill. Or card. You get it...

I will try an all-copic-coloring again at some point. It took forever, but I like how it turned out.
As for the movie - it's Twilight. Yes, the vampire-chick-flick from 2008. I still love it!

Jungle vibes

Hello everyone! In recent events of sending our fur baby across the rainbow bridge I needed fun, happy critters and lots of color. I will add these cards to the pile of Danish Operation write home cards.

All 4 cards are using My favorite things Jungle vibes stamps and dies as well as their Musical notes background stamp. The label stamp/die is Lawn Fawn Just for you labels.

For this card I used STampendous black embossing powder with Spiced marmelade, Wild honey, Squeezed lemonade, Twisted citron and Lucky clover Oxide inks.

For this card I used WOW! opaque bright white embossing powder and Twisted citron, Peacock feathers and Blueprint sketch Oxide inks.

For this card I used a newly bought Recollections embossing powder, from Michael stores. It's a shimmery blue. So pretty. The Oxide inks are Tumbled glass, Mermaid lagoon and Blueprint sketch.

On this card I thought it was fun to let the elephant wave a big feather, or palm. I cut along the black line and glued the palm in place behind the trunk.

Embossing powder is WOW! Primary fuscia fusion and Oxide inks are Spum sugar, Victorian velvet and Wilted violet.

Thank you so much for stopping by, and happy crafting!

Stay home, stay safe!

Guest Designing for 52 CCT

Hello everyone! I wish I could say I have enough determination to make Christmas cards year round, because it would save me a lot of stress. But I just don't. I love Christmas, at Christmas. But I get really annoyed when the stores decorate at the beginning of October. I mean, seriously...?

But - I was chosen winner at Christmas card throwdown blog this Christmas and asked to guest design. I'm honored and delighted to do so. And honestly, the My favorite things Happy pawlidays doggies are the cutest, and so I enjoyed this so much I made 2 cards.

For the background I ink blended Candied apple Distress ink through a Three Scoops Christmas stencil. Love this stencil.

The sentiment from MFT Handwritten holiday is heat embossed with WOW! Red glitz embossing glitter.

Since the theme is Christmas lights I highlighted them with glossy accents.
Copics used:
E77, E74, E71, E70
R39, R29, R24
100, C7, C5 (nose)
C3, C1 (hat/lights)

I cut the panel slightly smaller than the cardbase and heat embossed the edge of the base with WOW! Red glitz embossing glitter.

Here I first inkblended Tumbled glass and Salty ocean Distress inks through MFT Circle extraordinaire stencil. Then I placed the Newton's Nook Evergreens stencil on top of the circle stencil and applied Liquid Applique. Once dry you can heat set it for a bubbly snowy look.

As always, I wasn't patient enough to let it completely dry, so I ended up with some of the slighty burned. Oh, well.... And although it's really hard to see I added a soft halo around the light to make it look like they're lit. These also have a drop of glossy accents on them.
I used the same colors for the dog. For the light I used:
RV06, RV02, RV00
B05, B02, B00
Y08, Y02, Y00

The sentiment is from the Happy pawlidays set and the doggie is popped up quite a bit to clear those puffy trees.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Don't be shy to leave a little love below.

Panda cuteness

Hello everyone! How about some panda cuteness to brighten our day in between all the Corona horror. 

I bought this Simon says stamp Party like a panda set while on vacation and I couldn't wait to color the black and white cuties.

The background honestly is one I tossed a while back. Tossed in the sense that it didn't fit my project. However, true to Kelly Latevola I don't throw anything out. And I'm glad I didn't because it fits this. It's simple ink smooshing using yellow/pink Distress inks for a spring look. On top I've white heat embossed the SSS Ornate background - one of my all time favorites.

I used the 'tillykke' (congrats) die from Hobbyboden to cut pink glitter paper.

Using a My favorite things pierced circle die I cut a piece of vellum to back the panda and popped it up.

I hope that cheared you up!

Thanks for stopping by, STAY SAFE and why not spent your home-stay crafting!
