Birthday Snail Card - Croatian Sentiment (bastel-traum challenge #102)

Hi everyone :o)

It's time for a new challenge over at bastel-traum and our theme for the challenge #102 is Animals. :o)


The challenge starts today, June 15th, 2021, at 9 AM, CET (UTC +1) and ends on July 15th, 2021, at 8:55 AM, CET (UTC +1). Find all the details about the challenge, rules and prizes in a challenge post (here).


It's been a while since I've joined my DT in challenges and created a card, but today I managed. :o)

And here is my take on the challenge: CAS (clean and simple), one layer, Birthday Snail Card - Croatian Sentiment. :o)


To make this card, I CASEd (copied and shared everything) a card that I made two years ago (here). I went with same design, used same products, just went with a bit different color scheme (on this card a snail's house is a bit lighter, yellowish). :o)

I used stamps from two Jane's Doodles stamp sets: a snail from 'Chameleon' and a speech bubble sentiment from 'Croatian Sentiments'. Sretan rođendan means Happy Birthday. :o)


How I made my card...

I stamped the snail and the sentiment directly on a top folded Kraft paper card base.

I colored the snail and ground with various colored pencils. To add extra shades to the image, I used Stabilo Pens (Markers).

Then I colored the speech bubble sentiment and snail's eyes with a white pigment ink pen. I managed to mess couple black lines with the white pigment ink, but I fixed them with a black fine liner.

Lastly, I coated snail's house with a transparent varnish to create glossy accents and left it dry on air through the night.

I love how my card turned out. :o)


Card measurements: 89 mm x 121 mm (3 1/2" x 4 3/4")

List of supplies:


I hope you'll like my card for this challenge and get inspired. For more inspiration, check out BEAUTIFUL cards my super talented Design Teammates and our Guest Designer created for the challenge. Do join us in this challenge, we are looking forward to see your creations. :o)

Penguin Skating Sour Cream Container Gift Box no. 3 (Jane's Doodles DT Spotlight)

     


Hi everyone! :o)

Today was my turn to be on the spotlight over at Jane's Doodles and I made this Penguin Skating Sour Cream Container Gift Box no. 3. :o)


To make this box I CASEd (copied and shared everything) a box that I created for our's last Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop (here). This is my 3rd box of this kind and will make more of them to have them by hand for next Christmas. :o)

I used same products, same Jane's Doodles stamp sets (check out full list below in a list of supplies), went with same color scheme, techniques..., I just used different penguin image from Jane's Doodles 'Sweater Weather' stamp set. :o)


How I made this Sour Cream Container Gift Box... 

First I created a patterned paper that I used to fold the container. I stamped randomly snowflakes on a Kraft paper in watermark stamping technique using VersaMark Watermark Ink. Then I cut a rectangle size 3" x 6" from it.

I mixed a white tempera color with a bit of water and splattered the snowflakes patterned paper and left it dry on air.

After drying, I folded the container. Couple years ago I found great photo tutorial here. I folded the container following the tutorial. I left one side of the container unglued and open to fill it with sweets or something else later.

Next up was the penguin. I stamped the penguin on a watercolor paper and colored him in watercolor technique with Distress Inks. After drying, I fussy cut the penguin and traced edges with a black marker.

Then I stamped the penguin again on a white cardstock paper. I colored him with a grey marker and fussy cut him, leaving thin white border around the penguin. I glued watercolored penguin over the grey one. I did this to make the image thicker, as the watercolor paper I use is very thin and I needed thicker image.

Then I drew white highlights on the penguin using a white gel pen.

You know I love dimension on my projects. :o) I glued 3-D foam squares on the back of the penguin and glued him on the box.

As a finishing touch, I pierced a hole on the unglued part of the container and closed it with a brad. :o)


I love how my Sour Cream Container Gift Box turned out!! :o)

Hi everyone! :o)

Last week, Monday, January 25th, 2021, was my turn to be on the spotlight over at Jane's Doodles and I made this Penguin Skating Sour Cream Container Gift Box no. 2. :o)


To make this box I CASEd (copied and shared everything) a box that I created for our's last Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop (here). I really liked the box and decided to create bunch of them to have them by hand for next Christmas to use them as gift packages or even to make an Advent Calendar from them. Will see how many I'll create through the year. :o)

I used same products, same Jane's Doodles stamp sets (check out full list below in a list of supplies), went with same color scheme, techniques..., I just used different penguin image from Jane's Doodles 'Sweater Weather' stamp set. Those penguins are just too adorable. :o)

Hi everyone! :o)

Welcome to 9th Day of my 12 Days of Christmas Series.

Today I want to share with you these two CAS (clean and simple) Reindeer Cards.

 

To make these cards, I CASEd (copied and shared everything) my own card that I shared here on my blog in November 2020 (here). I went with same design, color scheme, used same techniques and products, I just worked directly on card bases on today's cards. :o)


How I made the card...

Then I mixed a white tempera color with a bit of water, splattered the card base and again left it dry on air.

Then I die cut three reindeer in the white cardstock paper and glued them together (stacked them). I glued stacked reindeer on the card and my card was finished. :o)


I repeated same for the second card, I just rotated the layout. :o) I really like this color combination and card design. :o)

Hi everyone! :o)

Welcome to 8th Day of my 12 Days of Christmas Series.

Today I want to share with you this Sretan Božić Card. 


To make this card, I CASEd (copied and shared everything) my own card that I shared couple days ago here on my blog (here). I went with same design, layout, color scheme, used same techniques and stamp sets, I just went with some different stamped images and a different sentiment. :o)

Sretan Božić is a Croatian sentiment and it means Merry Christmas. :o)


How I made my card....

First I created a background panel. I randomly stamped images on a Kraft paper panel in watermark stamping technique using VersaMark Watermark Ink.

Then I splattered the panel with a white tempera color mixed with a bit of water and left the panel to dry on air.

After drying, I glued the panel on a white side folded card base.

Next up was the sentiment. I heat embossed the sentiment in white on a black cardstock paper, cut the sentiment to a desirable size stripe, glued 3-D foam squares on the back of the sentiment stripe and glued it on the card and my card was finished. :o)

Card measurements: 121 mm x 89 mm (4 3/4" x 3 1/2")

Hi everyone! :o)

Welcome to 7th Day of my 12 Days of Christmas Series.

Today I want to share with you this Sretni blagdani no. 2 Card. It was my spotlight project for Jane's Doodles on Wednesday, December 16th, 2020. I didn't share it here on my blog earlier because I wanted to share it in series I planned prior Christmas, but that also didn't work as I planned (I wrote about it here), so I'm sharing it in these series. :o)


To make this card, I CASEd (copied and shared everything) my own card that I shared yesterday here on my blog (here). I went with same design, layout, color scheme, used same techniques and same sentiment, I just went with different stamped images. :o)

Sretni blagdani is a Croatian sentiment and it means Happy Holidays. :o)

For my card I used stamps from several Jane's Doodles stamp sets:
