Then What Happened with MFT Stamps

Hi ya everyone! I had fun creating this fun My Favorite Things card using the adorable Magical Friends stamp set.  I watercolored the cuties in Zig watercolor pens on Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper.  I fussy cut these out and created a fun background to pop them on to.  The background was ink blended with Catherine Pooler Inks: Something Borrowed, Suede Shoes and Juniper mist around a circle mask for a moon.  Next I ink blended the grass with Spruce.  Last I used a Picket Fence Studios stamp called On an Autumn Countryside of the trees and grass.  These were stamped in Versafine Clair in Rain Forest and Fallen Leaves.  I then added some Sheer shimmer mist to my Catherine Pooler Limoncello Ice Liquid sparkle and painted the moon being sure to not touch ink blended portions of my sky and grass.  I then added an MFT die cut Stitched Scalloped Rectangle and placed on an A2 card base.

Have A Bubbly Day with Sweet November Stamps

Thank you to everyone that joined me for my Facebook Live on Saturday night!  I hope you enjoyed making this card with ink blending around our adorable mermaid from Sweet November Stamps called January Mertot.  I also used the adorable little angel fish that you can find HERE.  The mermaid and friend were colored in Copics.  I used a number of Catherine Pooler inks to create the background.  I also stamped a number of other stamp sets to create the foliage (My Favorite Things) and fish (Picket Fence Studios) with Versafine Clair Inks.  You can find the LIVE video right HERE.

Coffee Understands - Stamping Bella and 7 Kids Live

Hi ya everyone!  I created this during a Live Facebook that happens every Saturday at 8pm EST on 7 Kids Customer's Create Page.  I had so much fun and loved the help I got from everyone who joined me.  We decided to ink up this cute Stamping bella Curvy Girl Loves Coffee and color her with our Zigs!

I inked the sky with Catherine Pooler inks in Something Borrowed, Juniper Breeze and Black Jack.  The Life Changing Brushes from Picket Fence Studios are amazing for this technique.   Together, they created a gorgeous blended sky.  I also used Gesso to flick some stars into the sky.  The sentiment is from a Picket Fence Studios set called Coffee Understands and was heat embossed with white embossing powder.

Whales on parade - 7 Kids and Picket Fence Studios

Hi ya everyone!  I created this card during a LIVE at 7 Kids Customer's Create Facebook page but never blogged and shared with everyone!  I used the adorable Picket Fence Studios stamps set called A Dose of Vitamin Sea.  I inked the background paper with the beautiful Catherine Pooler inks on Bristol Smooth paper.  I did mask the whales first.

I colored the beautiful whales with Zig Clean brush markers.  I used a Whimsy die for the border and then added sequence and bubbles with a white gel pen.  I stamped the sentiment in nocturne Versafine Clair Ink.

This was a fun and simple card to create and it turned out so beautiful with all the bright colors.  7 Kids Crafts has a number of Picket Fence Studio stamps available.  While the whales aren't there, you can find a number of adorable cuties!

You are my sunshine - A Simple Card

Hi ya everyone!  Today I'm sharing a simple card in which my paper did the work for me.  This gorgeous paper from Simple Stories called, Simply Vintage Botanicals, set the whole tone and feel of my card today.  I picked it up at 7 Kids Craft Store.  I did add a beautiful sentiment from Picket Fence Studios stamp set called You Are My Sunshine.  I stamped it right onto the paper in Versafine Clair.

I then colored the new little birds from Picket Fence Studios in my Copic markers, R00, R30, R20.  I added Shimmer Stix Sparkle to them as well.  I adhered them down to my paper with OnPoint Glue.

Last I used some Nuvo Crystal Drops in Calm Aqua and placed them with some clear sequence. Then I was finished after mounting everything onto an A2 sized card.  Seriously, paper did all the work!  I love that.

A Bubbly Day

Hi ya everyone!  You are going to want to hurry and pick up the new mermaids at Sweet November from 7 Kids Craft.  They are only there for a limited time (one week).  Then they are gone again.  This one, Hanalei, was so fun to color up with my Copic markers.  I fussy cut her and added this sweet girl to a mixed media background.

For the background I used a Whimsy die and stencil.  I sprayed the background paper with Fireworks Spray and then added some white acrylic paint to the stencil.  Next I cut a frame with a Whimsy die an added the scales with a silver acrylic paint.  I then added the fun Crackle medium that Kelly has in the store.  I also added blue bubbles in the background with the Prima pastes.  The sentiment is from Picket Fence Studios and so is the background bubbles, stars and fish!

Join us at 7 Kids Customer Create for Live color alongs with the Sweet November creator Amy Young.  She is fabulous and walks you through each step of Copic coloring.
