[Little Heart] DT: The Crafters Cafe Challenge #274

   Hey everyone! We have another lovely challenge at  The Crafter's Cafe Challenge Blog ! The theme for this challenge is "Favorite Color Combination sponsored by  Sheepski Designs . I chose this "Little Wish" digital stamp and printed it in white cardstock. I thought this image was PERFECT for young kids or babies! My favorite color combination is turquoise and gold! Leave a comment below to tell me your fave color combo! I printed the image twice and cut one out as a mask so I could color the background. I used Catherine Pooler Ink in "All That Jazz" with a blending sponge to create the soft background. I used alcohol markers to color in the elephants and then heat embossed the heart in gold. I layered some striped gold patterned paper with a turquoise background and cut out the "baby" sentiment using my Cricut. I am loving using my Cricut to do quick word sentiments! I added the word on top of some gold glitter washi tape!  I entered this card ...

[Sending love] Multi Occasion Card

Rachelle Ann Miller is a wonderful sponsor over at the  Passionate Paper Crafters and Family Facebook Group  and graciously shared a freebie on her site! I love the sketchy doodle effect and decided to turn this into a mini card. I colored in the image with my alcohol markers and used Nuvo drops in pink to embellish the centers of the flowers. Pink opaque Nuvo drop for the flower centers for some added dimension I had this sentiment in my stash so I stamped it on some white cardstock and mounted it on a green cardstock. I love the simple clean effect of this card, so decided to keep it as is without extra embellishments! Thanks for stopping by! Follow me on  Instagram  for more cards, reels and crafty fun! Jill  

[Never Grow Up] Sassy and Crafty Promo #2

Sassy and Crafty is the lovely sponsor this week at  Passionate Paper Crafters and Family Facebook Group ! We have lots of fun and a special discount just for this promo!  There were so many stamps to choose from- I decided on the  "Never Grow Up" stampset! I also chose the "Mermaid Tails" Stencil! I though this was perfect for many scenes, like beach, ocean or a fantasy/fairy theme like this card! The first thing I did was use Catherine Pooler Ink in "All that Jazz" and the "Mermaid" stencil to make the background. I used the stencil again and embossed over with a blue powder to give it some depth and dimension. I colored the fairy stamped image with alcohol markers and fussy cut it out. On some blue cardstock, I used silver embossing powder and stamped the stars and then stamped the sentiment in a black ink. I arranged the images on a pink cardstock for some contrast and attached it to a card panel :). Love how fun this card turned out! I ent...

[Leave a Little Sparkle] Sassy and Crafty Promo #1

  Sassy and Crafty is the lovely sponsor this week at  Passionate Paper Crafters and Family Facebook Group ! We have lots of fun and a special discount just for this promo!  There were so many stamps to choose from- I decided on the  "Never Grow Up"  stampset!  When I saw this set, I started to imagine lots of shine and glitter.  Enter--> Foiling!  I don't have a foiling machine..nor I do I plan to buy one soon but I came across lots of no-heat foiling techniques using  iCraft Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo . I used the "Mermaid Tails" Stencil and applied the Transfer Gel Duo. After letting it dry until it was clear, I took pink foil and laid it on top then peeled it off. I like the textured effect this gave, to give a more solid look, I think I would need to add more gel. I wanted to go for a "no line" coloring effect. So I stamped the two fairies in a light brown/tan ink from Stampin' Up. I colored the images in with colored pencil and fussy...

[Playful Animals] Kid's Card

I was looking through my stash and realized there was a shortage of “kid-friendly” cards...you know with fun coloring, colors and images. I came across this stamp set by Hero Arts “Playful Animals” which seemed like the perfect set to make a cute card! I stamped the images in black ink on white card stock and colored them using my Prismacolor colored pencil. I also stamped the sentiment phrases from the same stamped set.. For a little extra fun, I stamped a few animals on a strip of white cardstock and mounted it on a forest green cardstock. I fussy cute two leaves that I stamped and colored and propped them up with foam tape.    Thanks for stopping by! Jill

I printed the image on white cardstock and colored it in using my Shuttle Art Alcohol Markers. I got these markers as a budget buy from Amazon to see if I even liked working with alcohol markers..and I LOVE them. These were so easy...

[Pink and White Florals] Welcome Baby card

 I’m back with another white on white embossed card! I really love this technique-the clean, soft, elegant look it gives! I stamped these flower images and then embossed with white embossing powder. I colored in using a paint brush dipped in my Stampin!Up inks. Lately, I have been drawn to “painting” with inks. It gives an almost watercolor look to it, and I get use out of my ink supply! I decided to split the panel with my paper cutter to make the card a little more unique, I added the “Welcome baby” sentiment with a pink embossing powder and propped it up with my trusty foam squares.   Glued it on some soft pink card stock and attached it to a white card front! Thank you for stopping by! Jill  I submitted this card into the following challenges: A Bit More Time To Craft Challenge #142 - Anything Goes Sisterhood of Crafters-Anything Goes
