Dreams Come True Card (LMMS Inspiration)


Hi everyone! :o)

It's Little Miss Muffet Stamps Inspiration Week and I made this CAS (clean and simple), Dreams Come True Card. :o)


For my card I used beautiful LMM's Forgotten Scraps 'Polka Dot Pals Kaari' digital stamp, image released to the store today.

I was inspired with a card I shared last week for a current LMM's challenge #171, You are Magical Card.

I printed the image on a watercolor paper and left it dry for a day. I colored the image in watercolor technique using Distress Inks.

After drying, I fussy cut the image and traced edges with a black fibre-tip pen. Then I printed another image on a white cardstock paper, colored the image with the black fibre-tip pen and glued the colored image over it. I did this to make the image thicker as the watercolor paper I used is very thin and wouldn't work with 3-D foams.

I heat embossed in white on a black cardstock paper stripe a sentiment form Jane's Doodles 'Magical' stamp set.

With all parts finished, I glued 3-D foams on the image and sentiment and placed them on a white top folded card base. I embellished the card with two red enamel dots. As a finishing touch, I drew highlights and dots with a white gel pen and my card was finished. :o)

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

  • LMM's Forgotten Scraps 'Polka Dot Pals Kaari' digital stamp

You are Magical Card II (LMMS Challenge #171)


Happy Friday! :o)


A new challenge has started at Little Miss Muffet Stamps Challenge Blog. It's #171, Anything Goes Challenge.


For this challenge I made this CAS (clean and simple), You are Magical Card II.



I made this card for my niece Nika who started new Kindergarten year on Monday. 

I used a super cute C.C. Designs 'Butterfly Twila' stamp, available in LMM's shop.

I stamped the image on a watercolor paper. I colored the image in watercolor technique using Distress Inks. Inspired with two cards I created this summer (find them here and here), I went with blue color scheme again. Love it!! :o)

After drying, I fussy cut the image, traced edges with a black fibre-tip pen and worked on the image with stylus ball, which softened the paper and curved the image a bit. This is such an easy technique to add a dimension to your images. :o)

Then I stamped another image on a white top folded card base and a sentiment form Jane's Doodles 'Magical' stamp set. I colored the image with the black fibre-tip pen and glued the colored image over it. I didn't glued down wings, which gave an extra dimension to the image.

As a finishing touch, I drew highlights and dots with a white gel pen and my card was finished. :o)


Card dimensions: 95 mm x 127 mm (3 3/4" x 5")

List of supplies:
  • C.C. Designs 'Butterfly Twila' stamp, available in LMM's shop
  • Jane's Doodles 'Magical' stamp set (sentiment)
  • white cardstock paper (card base)
  • white watercolor paper (image)
  • Ranger Archival Ink (Jet Black)

Fairy Wishes Card (KBD Aloha Friday Challenge #72 Mid Inspiration)

http://kittybeedesigns.blogspot.com/

Happy Friday everyone! :o)


Today I'm posting a mid-inspiration project for ongoing Aloha Friday Challenge at Kitty Bee Designs.

The challenge for this fortnight is #72 - Fairytale / Fantasy.

We have two sponsors for this challenge: A Day For Daisies and The Paper Shelter, so there will be double prizes! :o)
           


For this challenge I made a Fairy Wishes Card, using our sponsor's A Day For Daisies adorable image Painted Mushroom Top and Neil Gaiman's quote.



Neil Gaiman is one of the favorite authors in our home. Comic books, novels, children books... There are also films made based on his novels. My favorite: Stardust. It's a must see film. :o)


How I made my card...

I made a layout on my computer using MS Word, printed it out on a white watercolor paper and left it dry for an hour. I use inkjet printer and always leave image "drying" after printing to prevent ink smearing.

I colored the image and background in watercolor technique using Distress Inks. When I was satisfied, I covered the image with a paper scrap and splattered the background with water. After drying, I glued the panel on a white cardstock card base.

At the end, using white pen, I added some highlights on the image and drew white dots around it, to imitate fairy dust. :o)



Dimensions: 84 mm x 133 m(3 3/8" x 5 1/4")

List of supplies:
  • A Day For Daisies 'Painted Mushroom Top'
  • white cardstock paper
  • white watercolor paper
  • Tim Holtz's Distress Inks:
    • Mustard Seed
    • Twisted Citron
    • Cracke Pistachio
    • Barn Door
    • Tumbled Glass
    • Blueprint Sketch
    • Ground Espresso
    • Hickory Smoke
  • Unibal Signo White
  • UHU universal glue
  • printer
  • MS scoring board
  • Fiskars High Precision Personal Paper Trimmer
  • Marabu rounded fine paint brush no. #0
  • Marabu flat fine paint brush no. #10
  • paper towels
  • water

Summer Fairy Card (KBD Aloha Friday Challenge #52)

Happy Friday everyone :-D 

Today a new Aloha Friday Challenge starts at Kitty Bee Designs.
http://kittybeedesigns.blogspot.com/

New challenge for this fortnight is #52 - Summer Fun.

Our sponsor for this challenge is Stitchy Bear's Digi Outlet, with a prize for our random winner: some digital images of winner's choice.


For this challenge I made this CAS (clean and simple), Summer Fairy Card, using our sponsor's super cute image 'BBKakes - Spari Fairy'Yellow and blue, fairies and flowers... SUMMER FUN! :-D 


I printed the image on a white paper and colored it with colored pencils. 
TIP: After printing an image on a paper, leave it drying at least half an hour. This will prevent smearing the black ink. 

I cut out out a panel and glued it on a same sized piece of cardstock paper. I did this to make panel thicker.

I cut out two stripes of designer paper and glued them to a card base. 
TIP: When creating CAS (clean and simple) cards, use minimum of design paper and embellishments. To save design paper, don't glue whole sheet on a card base. Cut out strips or use scraps.

I wanted to pop up the image, so I added 3-D foams behind the panel and glued it on the card base. 

At the end I added some gloss resin on fairy's wings (yellow/orange part), star and flowers, to create glossy accents
TIP: Add some interest to your image by adding resin, varnish, glossy accents or similar product on some parts of your image. 

Card dimensions are 101 mm x 126 mm (4" x 5").
