Bear Hugs Mini Circle Card (Jane's Doodles DT)

 

Hi everyone! :o)

Today I want to share with you this Bear Hugs Mini Circle Card. It was my spotlight project for Jane's Doodles on Tuesday, November 3rd, 2020. I didn't manage to share it here on my blog earlier, so I'm sharing it today. :o)

To make this card I was inspired with a card I made for our last Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop (here).

For my card I used stamps from two GORGEOUS Jane's Doodles stamp sets: 'Pumpkin Patch' and 'Bear Hugs'. ♥

How I made my card....

First I created a background panel. I randomly stamped acorns and pumpkins on a Kraft paper in watermark stamping technique using VersaMark Watermark Ink. Then I die cut a wonky stitched circle from the Kraft paper.

Then I made a card base. I cut two circles from a white cardstock paper and glued them together on the top.

I glued the panel on the circle card base.

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

I stamped another bear on a white cardstock paper, colored him with a grey marker and fussy cut him, leaving white thin border around the bear. Then I glued the watercolored bear over the grey one.

I die cut a speech bubble form a white cardstock paper and stamped a sentiment on it.

I love dimension on my cards. I glued 3-D foam squares (2 different thickness) on the back of the bear and the speech bubble and glued them on the card.

As a finishing touch I drew white highlights on the bear using a white gel pen, embellished the card with two brown enamel dots and my card was finished. :o)

I love how my card turned out. :o)

Card measurements: d = 83 mm (3 1/4")

Space Mini Circle Card (bastel-traum challenge #94)

Happy Friday! :o)

On October 15th, 2020, a new challenge started at bastel-traum and our theme for the challenge #94 is Background. :o)

I'm a bit late sharing my post here on my blog, but there is still 9 days left to join in the fun. 

The challenge started on October 15th, 2020, at 9 AM, CEST (UTC +2) and ends on November 15th, 2020, at 8:55 AM, CET (UTC +1). Find all the details about the challenge, rules and prizes in a challenge post (here).

And here is my take on the challenge: Space Mini Circle Card. :o)

To make this card I was inspired with a card I made for this year's World Space Week Blog Hop (here).

For my card I used a spaceship stamp from Altenew 'Space Travel' stamp set.

How I made my card...

I colored a background in watercolor technique using Distress Inks Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch and Black Soot. I used a thick watercolor paper for it. When I was satisfied with the color, I left the panel to dry on air.

After drying, I die cut a wonky stitched circle from the panel. I stamped the spaceship in black on the panel and colored it with a black marker.

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

After drying, I ink blended edges with the Distress Ink Black Soot to achieve more dramatic look.

Next up was the spaceship. I stamped the spaceship on a thin watercolor paper and colored it in watercolor technique using Distress Inks. After drying, I fussy cut the spaceship, traced edges with the black marker and glued it over the spaceship that I stamped on the panel.

I made a card base from two circles that I cut from a black cardstock paper. I glued circles together on the top and glued the panel on the card base.

As a finishing touch, I drew couple white dots (stars) here and there on the panel using a white pigment ink pen and my card was finished. :o)

Card measurements: d = 83 mm (3 1/4")

List of supplies:

• Altenew 'Space Travel' stamp set (spaceship)
• black cardstock paper
• Canson XL Mixed Media Paper, 300 g
• Ranger Archival Ink (Jet Black)
• Tsukineko VersaMark Watermark Stamp Pad
• WOW! Embossing Powderer (Opaque Bright White, Regular, WL01R)
• Tim's Holtz Distress Inks:
• Salty Ocean 
• Blueprint Sketch
• Hickory Smoke
• Black Soot
• Koh-i-noor tempera color (white)
• Stabilo Fibre Tip Pen (Marker), Black 68/46
• Uniball Signo White Pigment Ink pen
• UHU liquid glue
• round acrylic block
• Fiskars High Precision Personal Paper Trimmer
• bone folder
• scissors
• Sizzix Big Shot
• Stabilo Fibre Tip Pen (Marker), Black 68/46
• Ranger Heat It Tool
• Ranger Mini Ink Blending Tool
• Optima rounded fine paint brush no. #4
• Marabu rounded fine paint brush no. 3/0

Welcome to a special annual blog hop,  3rd World Space Week Blog Hop. :o)

Aim of the hop is to celebrate World Space Week (WSW), an international celebration of science and technology, and their contribution to the betterment of the human condition. The UN declared in 1999 that WSW will be held each year from October 4 – October 10. 

"These dates commemorate two events:
October 4, 1957: Launch of the first human-made Earth satellite, Sputnik 1, thus opening the way for space exploration
October 10, 1967: The signing of the Treaty on Principles Governing the Activites of States in the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies."

Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop

Hi everyone! :o)

Welcome to a Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop. Today we are featuring three new stamp sets released into the store. :o)

Grateful

Hot Cocoa

Pumpkin Patch

GORGEOUS stamps!!! Love love LOVE!!!!! :o)


And here is what I prepared for today: Sweeter than Pumpkin Pie Mini Circle Card using stamps from the 'Pumpkin Patch' stamp set. :o)

I made this card for my sweetheart. He loves orange color. :o)

How I made my card....

First I created a background panel. I stamped randomly pumpkins on a Kraft paper in watermark stamping technique using VersaMark Watermark Ink. Then I die cut a wonky stitched circle from the paper and stamped a sentiment in black on it.

Then I made a card base. I cut two circles from a white cardstock paper and glued them together on the top.

I glued the panel on the circle card base.

Next up were images. I stamped an adorable fox and pumpkins on a watercolor paper and colored them in watercolor technique with Distress Inks. After drying, I fussy cut images and traced their edges with a black marker.

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

I love dimension on my cards. I glued 3-D foams (2 different thickness) on each image and glued images on the card.

As a finishing touch I drew white highlights on images using a white gel pen and my card was finished. :o)

I love how my card turned out!! :o)

At the bottom of this post you can find card measurements and detailed supply lists for my today's card. Link to this post will be in a right sidebar until the Blog Hop ends. :o)

And now to the Blog Hop prize...
