RAM Stamps Kookaburra and Koala Christmas

-

Hey everyone, here's another adorable RAM Stamps Christmas card using Kookaburra and Koala Christmas. 
Fun story - I traveled around in Australia for 4 months some 20 years ago, and we stayed in Airlie Beach (south of Townsville, Queensland) and we were woken up by a huge flock of Kookaburra laughing in the trees above the hut at 5.30 in the morning. Even then we were able to appreciate the experience that I imagine not many people get to have. Oh, and just for laughs, the Cockatoos took over about 30 minutes later 😂


I wanted a wreath around the image, so I die cut with a circle die. Believe it or not what's inside the wreath is Copic colored and outside the wreath is ink blended Cracked Pistacio Oxide ink. I used the MFT Joy wreath but it was way too small for my image. So I cut it twice, separated the leaves and built my own wreath. 

I added a sentiment from My Favorite Things - Joyful Christmas sentiment and a few gems.



Copics used:
E49, E44, E44, E42, E42 + B26, BG57, BG53, BG000 (Kookaburra) 
W5, W3, W2, W1 + 100, W9, W7
E41, E43, E44, G96 (gum tree) 
R24, R22, R20


Thanks for stopping by.
I wish you the most wonderful Christmas holidays.
Tina

Copic vedligeholdelse - hvordan & hvorfor

  Hej! Jeg laver ellers ikke blog på dansk, men men tænkte at der måske var nogle som kunne gøre brug af det.  Jeg har længe villet lave en blog post om Copic vedligeholdelse - også kendt som Copic spa day - og nu har jeg endelig fundet tid til det.  Det er en lang post, så hent en kop kaffe og sæt dig til rette.  For god ordens skyld gør jeg opmærksom på, at jeg viser min egen foretrukne metode og at alle holdninger er mine egne. Teksten må ikke kopieres eller gengives uden accept.  Først og fremmest - HVORFOR bør man bruge tid på at rengøre sine tuscher?  Du har endelig købt nogle tuscher, nogle ret dyre tuscher i min optik, og nu vil du bare farvelægge. Har jeg ret?  Rengøring af så mange tuscher tager lidt tid og jeg forstår fuldt ud, hvis nogle synes det er langsommeligt og spild af tid. Men hvad hvis jeg siger, at vedligeholdelse af dine Copic tuscher vil forlænge deres levetid og forbedre brugen af dem? Rengøring er essentielt for alle Copic-bru...

Hey guys. How heartbroken are you to see all the burned animals in Australia? I can't even.... I chose this digital image  Lili of the valley Koala . The profits of the sale from this cutie will be donated to the WWF Australian bushfires relief, so get shopping people!

Copics used: Koala: W5, W3, W1, W0 + C1 Tree: E50, G40, E42, E31, E34 Leaves: BG57, G02, G00, YG01 Flowers: YG17, YG06, YG03, Y000 Butterfly: YG06, YG01, E44, E47 I also printed this Make it Crafty Gumnut flower corner and fuzzy cut it out. I "colored" the flowers with a white Sakura gelly roll pen. Copics used: Leaves: BG57, G02, G00, YG01 Flowers + stem: YG17, YG06, YG03, Y000 I stamped a sentiment from Poppystamps Whittles Everyday and popped up the panel and gum leaves. Although rain storms have moved in, fires are still raging. The animals of Australia still need our help. The lu...
