CARD INSPIRATION

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.

[VIDEO] Paper hugs for Mother's Day | card inspiration

2021-04-17

Paper hugs for Mother's day? Oh yes, we can say it with a personalized heart warming card which has it's own magic. The secret ingredient for the magic card is to create a card with a memory which both of you share together. You still have time to create and send it, however if you can’t give it to her anymore, you can still make it for yourself to think about her and the good memories. Today I am up on the Lawn Fawn blog with a new video tutorial, where I am sharing this lovely slimline card which I made for Mother's day with coloring instructions. Let's color seal pointed cats together with alcohol markers.

CARD INSTRUCTIONS

For this project I will use these cute cat images from the Purrfect day stamp set as well as this melon image from Treat Yo’self. I think it’s so much fun to mix animal stamps with fruit images. I stamped the images with lighter brown, alcohol marker friendly inkpad called Gingerbread. I used this color because I wanted to achieve a softer look for the images.

For the coloring I have used Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers, but you can make it with any other marker as well. For the coloring and the full process be sure to check out the video tutorial here. Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers Used: GT3, GT2, GT1, MG3, MG2, MG1, PP2, FS1, TN3, TN1, FS6, Blender. Once the coloring was done, I added highlights with white pencil and white pigment pen. Once it was done, I run the images through my mini die-cutting machine with their coordinating dies.

I have also prepared slimline die-cuts with the Stitched Slimline Trio Dies and Slimline Pull Tab Dies in different cardstock colors. For the background I made a quick ink blending with Du-si-do Pink inkpad from Catherine Pooler as well as with Spun Sugar distress oxide ink. Next, I splattered on it with clear water and white watercolor as well, and let it air dry.

After this I stamped the have a purrfect day sentiment from the “Purrfect day” stamp set with watermark ink to the pastel peach die-cut, then I heat embossed with white embossing powder. I have also created four die-cuts with the Hello word die from white cardstock. I adhered them together for more depth and now I have everything prepared to finish my card. Thank you so much for stopping by, have an amazing day, Mona

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 91 - New Year

2021-01-01

Happy happy new year crafty friends! 🦄 Wishing you good health, happiness, success and lots of crafty time! Thank you, thank you for all your amazing support and love in the past year. It means the world to me!

I have created this card tonight for the current Lawn Fawnatics challenge 91 - where the topic is the new year. As always you can find the used supplies below the post.

I wanted to create a simple but colorful card so I decided to create a pastel rainbow ink blending in the background, I did exactly the same blending like in my Yeti video here.

Then I created a shaker part with the Outside in stitched mug die, to the center of my card which I backed with mermaid cardstock (this is my all time favorite soft turquoise cardstock).

Next I stamped these sweet images from the unicorn picnic stamp and colored with Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers. I have used: FS9, FS6, FS8, FS1, PP2, BP1, PP4, HB1, HB2, HB3, AB1, AB2, AB3. When the coloring was done I added white highlights with white pen.

When it was done I created the "have a Sweet New Year" sentiment with die-cutting and heat embossing. In the end I put together my card. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time!

Big hugs,

Mona

[VIDEO] Twist and Sprout Card with Coloring

2020-12-26

Hello crafty friends, I am back with an another coloring video tutorial. Today I am going to show you how to create these Linzer biscuits with dies and alcohol markers. I encourage you to try it! It's much more easier then it looks like! You can find the video here. As always you can find the used supplies below the post.

For this project I am going to use various stamps and dies from Heffy Doodle. I have linked all the used supplies below the post. I stamped the image to a Neenah Solar White cardstock. I wanted to achieve a softer look for the stamping, so instead of a black inkpad, I have used one of my favorite brown inkpads, called Gingerbread, which is Copic and Spectrum Noir marker friendly as well. Just don’t forget to add a quick heat set before the coloring.

For the coloring I have used Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers, but you can make it with any other markers as well. For the coloring and the full process be sure to check out the video tutorial here. Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers Used: AG2, AG3, AG4, BT2, BT5, CG2, DG1, FS9, LG4, Blender.

Once the coloring was done, I added highlight’s with white pencil and white pigment pen. After the highlighting, I stamped these cute faces from the Pasta La Vista stamp set by Heffy Doodle with Leather Brown Inkpad, then I run them through my mini die-cut machine with their coordinating dies.

I also die-cut my own sentiment with stitched alphabetter dies from Hint Of Mint cardstock. Once the die-cutting was done, I just put all the letters to a masking tape, and made a quick inkblending on them with moved Lawn distress and distress oxide inks. Next I put all the parts together, the colored images and the sentiment as well. As you can see, I have also created and colored some additional small Heffy images for embellishing the card.

Be sure to check the video for the full tutorial with the extra tips and tricks. As always, you can find the used supplies below the post, and if you have any questions feel free to ask in a comment. Thank you so much for joining me, see you next time, have an amazing day, Mona

Heffy Friends Blog Hop

2020-08-18

Hello lovelies and welcome to the Heffy Doodle Friends Blog Hop. Today I am showing you a cute pony card inspiration with the newest release! I hope you will enjoy it.

Do your projects look better in real life? Start with 5 simple ways to make your craft photos do them justice. 🎁 Get my free photo ebook for cardmakers and colorists here!

As always, you can find the supply list below the post. Now let see the cardmaking and also don't forget to comment on my blog, because there is a giveaway too! Yaaay!

I started the cardmaking with ink blending. I have used lighter Distress Oxide Inkpads first in rainbow order in the following shades: Tumbled Glass, Cracked Pistachio, Twisted Citron, Squeezed Lemonade, Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac. When it was done, I put on my ink blending through the Rays The Roof stencil and created darker lines through the stencil. I have used the Peacock Fathers, Moved Lawn, Fossilized Amber, Picked Raspberry, and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inkpads.

When the ink blending was done, I run the blended cardstock with the Imperial Stitched Rectangles Dies (the second largest) through my Die-cut machine. After that I splattered on it with white and gold Gansai Tambi Watercolors and let it dry.

The next step was the stamping and coloring. I have used the Fluffy Puffy Unicorns Stamps and Dies. Aren’t they adorable? I have a few more inspirations with these cutenesses. I will show them in the end of my post. I stamped them with my MISTI and this time I colored them as Ponies from the My Little Pony movies.

For the coloring I have used my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Markers. The used colors for Ponies are: CT1, CT3, CT4, LY1, GY1, GY2, GY3, BO1, BO2, DR2, MG3, MG1, PP4, PP2, PP1, PV3, HB1, LV1, LV3, PL3, TB5, TV4, TB2, TB1, IB1, IG2, BGR4, DG3, LG4, LG3, Blender.

When the coloring was done, I adhered the Ponies to the background with 3D foam adhesive. Next I run the Starry Rainbow Die, the Stitched Alphabetter Dies and the “To my” Word Heffy Cuts through my Die-cut machine with white cardstock. I created the sentiment then embellished with the stars from the Starry Rainbow die, then styled and put my card together.

I hope you have enjoyed my inspirations for today, see you next time and good luck in the giveaway! Mona
