Before we are jumping to the techniques, I just want to tell that, for all the three cards I heat embossed the cute pet images from the More Peeking Pets Stamp Set with gold embossing powder, then I made on them a very basic and soft coloring, because I knew I want to rock the colors on the backgrounds! The free colorwheel I have mentioned before in this post was very useful to mix up the colors. 

For the fist card I have created an easy rainbow inkblending to the background with 3 ink colors called: Oh Boy!, Lemongrass and Sparkling Berry Catherine Pooler Inks (links below the post). I have used the same inkpads on the The Hello Trio Word Dies Diecuts as well but way more gently. With the Hey word die I have created loads of die-cuts to add to my card a bit dimension.

For my second card which is my absolute favorite from this set, I created lots of “hello” diecuts with the same The Hello Trio Word Dies and I adhered them diagonally to a piece of a heavyweight cardstock and started the blending over it. Because the word is a bit higher the blending gives such a nice 3D effect! Finally, a lovely turquoise speech bubble with a cute dog was enough to finish this design.

For the third card I created a rainbow with stamping. I just picked the Speech bubble solid stamp from the Look Who's Talking Stamp Set and stamped with different colors (listed below) to achieve this fun rainbow look. In the end I just layered the Hi word diecut and adhered it with 3D foam squares to its right place. Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope you have enjoyed this quick post, let me know in your comment which one do you like more.

When I saw this adorable stamp I knew that I will make a craftroom kind of card with organized "shelves" and with a bit of a crafty mess on the table. I stamped the images with alcohol marker friendly brown ink, and after a quick heat set I colored them with Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers. I have used the following colors: LY1, LY3, CT1, CT3, CT4, TN1, TN3, EB1, BO1, OR2, CR2, MG1, MG3, HB1, HB2, HB3, GT1, GT3, GB3, GB1, GB11, Blender and a white pen for the highlights as well.

After the coloring, I made a quick fussy cutting, and die-cutting as well. Then I stamped with watermark ink and heat embossed the Happy Crafting sentiments with white embossing powder on a light teal cardstock, I put my card together and I added finishing touches with white pen.
