Sorry for my reaction |MFT Stamps

Hello everyone! The 'cute chemists' set from MFT stamps is so adorable, I love the different sentiments included in the set. Since I am not so used to coloring with colored pencils I challenged myself to use Prismacolors on today's card.

First I created the fun background by sprinkling some Nuvo shimmer powders on watercolor cardstock and adding water to it. I love to let it air dry because I think it looks more natural this way. Isn't it awesome how the powder reacts with the water? Perfect for this card :-)

I used the second largest of the 'single stitch line tag-corner rectangle frames' to diecut the paper. I also diecut 4 white frames with the die which I stacked together.

With two stamps included in the cute chemists set I created the background on a white cardbasis. I used a grey ink for it and colored in some of the hearts with Prismacolor colored pencils.

I stamped the sweet chemist and colored it with the same medium. After diecutting him I could assemble the card. I adhered all the pieces onto the white cardbase and added the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock which I adhered with foam tape.

To wrap things up I created another short photo story you can watch here:

Christmas Card #24 | Mama Elephant

Hello! I had some images left from the dailymarker30day challenge and finally put them into a card or a set of three cards (one Christmas and two birthday ones).

  

I started by masking off the bottom half of three white cardbases and blended some soft distress oxide colors on top of the cards. Then I diecut three frames with the 'framed tags par avenue' die and adhered them to the cardbases.

The images from 'cool penguins' were already prepared. They had been colored with Copic markers and three different color families.

Then I stamped the cute sentiment ("hope you like the present you told me to buy") from 'cool penguins' on all three cards in the upper left corner. Then I added with dye inks in the matching colors the occasion. I used the "Merry Christmas" from 'little Santa agenda' and the "Happy Birthday" from 'Cub Cuddles'.

Last but not least I added Nuvo Jewel Drops on top of the ink blending for more structure and interest.

Thank you very much for stopping by and have a great day!

Christmas Card #22 | Mama Elephant

Hello everyone! I really love the 'joy ornaments' stamp set from Mama Elephant. There are so many possibilities and it is a great opportunity for watercoloring.

I created a striped background with the Tim Holtz layering stencil 'mint'. I chose the neutral distress oxide colors pumic stone and hickory smoke. Then I added shimmer with some glitter and nuvo glitter accents in fresh snowfall and silver jubilee. By the way the background is diecut with the second largest of the 'basic rectangles' but due to the glitter you cannot see the stitching detail any more.

The images are stamped with archival jet black ink and colored with Mijello Mission Gold watercolors. I mixed and layered several shades of green.

 I added glitter the same way as to the background and chose a silver metallic pen to fill in the "mounting" of the ornaments.

Then I placed the ornaments onto the background and added lines to the ornaments some with the stamp included in the set and some with a black pen.

Last but not least I adhered the ornaments with foam dots to the card.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great day!
