HOPE YOUR BIRTHDAY IS A SPLASH! (4)

I did something completely different for these summertime cards. I used the Splash! Stamp set from Avery Elle to create these birthday cards.

I started by stamping the images. I colored everything with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:

Women: E000 – E02 – E11/ E11 – E04/ W3 – W5 – W7/ E31 – E35/ R14 – R27/ BG45 – BG49

Floaties: Y08 – Y17/ Y06 – Y11/ YG00 – YG03/ R14 – R17/ R81 – R83/ B63 – B66/ E31 – E35

Water: B00 – BG01

The panel that I colored was trimmed diagonally. And I can create two cards. I adhered these pieces onto some pattern paper: Hello Sunshine Remix paper from Lawn Fawn.

The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed onto a strop of Chili Pepper cardstock, using white embossing powder from Lawn Fawn. I added this to the card as well.

For both cards I used a corner chomper to round off one corner.

FOR YOU (5)

Today my card is featured on the Lawn Fawnatics Blog, for the newest color inspiration challenge. It has a yellow/ orange, purple and dark blue color palette and I used the Ocean Shell-fie stamp set.

I took some Spiffy Speckles pattern paper. I die cut two circles from it, using the Large Stitched Circle Stackables dies for this. For the backgorund, that will go behind this panel, I used the Ocean Waves stencil and Blueprint Sketch Oxide Ink for blending waves. They will peek through the circles.

I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Octopus: V01 - V12/ Y17 - YR04
Camera: Y02 - Y08/ B24 - B26/ W5 - W7/ W0 - W3
Jellyfish: Y17 - YR04/ Y02 - Y08
Fish: B63 - B66/ Y17 - YR04
Clam: V01 - V12/ Y02 - Y08/ B24 - B26
Seaweed: B24 - B26

I die cut the images and added them to my panel.

For the sentiment I used an older word die, the Scripty For You die. I die cut it from Sticky Note cardstock and I ink blended this with Wild Honey Distress Ink.

I added the sentiment onto the panel as well and I used a white gelly roll pen to add highlights and dots to the images.

HAVE A RELAXING DAY, YOU'VE EARNED IT (1)

Since it’s going to be a thousand degrees here in The Netherlands this week, I decided to create a beach card. I used the On the Beach stamp set and combined it with the Car Critters set from Lawn Fawn.

For the sky I used Wild Honey Distress Ink and the Clouds stencil from My Favorite Things. I think it’s my most used stencil ever. I used it on almost every scene card these days.

I took some Kraft cardstock and die cut two hills, using the Stitched Hillside Borders die set. I added splatter to them with Ground Espresso Distress Ink. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment onto the front hill, using white embossing powder from Lawn Fawn.

I stamped the images. I also used some images from Ahoy Matey and Butterfly Kisses. I used Copic Markers for coloring. Here are all the colors I used:

Car: B24 – B26/ Y11 – Y06/ Y17 – YR04/ C3 – C5/ C0 – C2

Bear: E31 – E33 – E35/ E000 – E02

Towel: B24 – B26/ Y17 – YR04

Parasol + Beach ball + sunblock: B24 – B26/ Y17 – YR04/ Y11 – Y06/ C0 – C2

Palm trees: YG00 – YG03 – YG13/ E25 – E29/ E31 – E33 – E35

Drink: E25 – E29/ B24 – B26/ Y17 – YR04/ Y11 – Y06

Grass: YG00 – YG03 – YG13

I fussy cut (and die cut the car) the images and assembled the card. I added some highlights and dots with a white gelly roll pen. Always love to add those as a finishing touch.

YOU'RE SO-Y AWESOME (2)

For this sushi themed card, I used the Soy Awesome stamp set from Hero Arts.

 

For the background I used Kraft cardstock. I took all the food themed images and stamped them onto the background using Doe Ink. Creating a tone-on-tone background.

 
I stamped the other images and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are all the colors I used:
Teapot: W2 – W3 – W5 – W7/ R35 – R39/ E31 – E33 – E35
Sushi: E000 – E02/ R000 – R01 – R32/ G43 – G46
Board: G43 – G46
Cups: R35 – R39

 

I fussy cut the images and adhered them to the background. I stamped the images and added some highlights to the images with a white gelly roll pen.
 
I’m planning on giving this to a friend, who is a major sushi fan.

GOODIE BAG (10)

For the new Lawn Fawnatics challenge, we get a yello/ orange, purple and dark blue color palette for inspiration. For some reason these color challenge are always the hardest for me, but I do enjoy them. For today's post I created a goodie bag.

I die cut the bag with the Goodie Bag die. I ink blended it with Shaded Lilac and Dusty Concord Oxide Inks. I splattered some gold paint onto it, to make it look like sparkling stars.

I die cut grass with the Grassy Border die, from Cilantro cardstock. I ink blended it with Lucky Clovers Oxide Ink. For the mountains I used Fog cardstock and Manatee Ink for blending.

I stamped the images from the Happy Trails stamp set and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Camper: B24 - B26/ Y02 - Y06 - Y08/ W5 - W7/ W0 - W3
Car: YR04 - Y17/ W5 - W7/ W0 - W3/ V01 - V12

I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment. I assembled the goodie bag and added everything to the goodie bag.

I used some fly paper to add to the inside of the goodie bag.
