Warm Wishes for Winter with Hello Bluebird

Hi ya everyone!  Today I am sharing a fun card I made using a no line watercolor technique.  I created the background sky on watercolor paper (Arche's coldpress 140lb) and my Daniel Smith Watercolors.  I've been so inspired by Amy Young's gorgeous sky she created on this card that I couldn't help but do another one with the beautiful sunset sky!

All of the items used today are from Hello Bluebird.  The two dies, that are both out of stock at 7 Kids, called Winter Woods Overlay Die and Warm Wishes word die.  The stamp set is called First Snow.  I also need to give a shoutout to Tracey Neumann who used the woods die and so inspired me with her gorgeous birch trees. You can find that card here.

I also used the adorable Postage Stamp Die to make the frame of our card.  I used the watercolor paper Arches 140lb coldpress paper.  In addition, I used my favorite watercolor brushes called Silver Black Velvet brushes in 12 and 8.  The sentiment was from the Evelin T Designs stamp set called Warm Winter Wishes.

Peace Love & Joy with Penny Black and 7 Kids

Well, I just fell in love with this sweetie from Penny Black and decided to put her on a simple card after coloring her with a no line technique with Copics.  The strip on the background was created during a live Facebook night and Catherine Pooler Inks.

I used large Whimsy Snowflakes from the Snow Flurry set and a Studio Light stamp set for the smaller background snowflakes.  You can check out more details on the LIVE video HERE.

Pick of the Patch with 7 Kids and Stampingbella

I can't believe I haven't shared this card that was made during a Live at 7 Kids weeks ago!  I so love the new Stamping Bella stamps and this little called Bundle Girl at the Pumpkin Patch.  Kelly is all out of this cutie but she does have a number of other adorable girls from Stamping Bella including Bundle Girl in a Pile of Leaves.

She would totally work for this card too!  I used the fabulous Sweet November Digital Stamp, Halloween Background Builders for the pumpkin patch.

Vampires, Witches and Ghouls, OH MY!

I can't believe that I haven't gotten a chance to share this fun card I made using the new Sweet November Digital stamps from 7 Kids Crafts.  I adore this Vampiress Mircea.  Isn't she just lovely with her adorable bat?  I colored her with my Copics trying to get a fun and sparkly dress.  I'm wondering though if I should have put her in red.  I think that would have added a bit more contrast to my scene!  Make sure to check out all the new Sweet November Digis!
