CARD INSTRUCTIONS

I stamped the images from the Skiing Bear Exclusive Stamp Set and colored them with Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers with the following colors: CT1, CT3, CT4, GY3, TN1, TN3, TN4, TN5, TN7, GB6, GB4, GB2, MB1, FS9, FS3, PP1, PP2, PP3, PP5, MG1, MG2, EB4, EB1, MB1, BO1, Blender

Classiques: GB05, BO05. Then I fussycut them with detailed scissors.

Next, I stamped some trees from the same set to the background, colored them the same way and made an inkblending on it with Fossilized Amber, Wild Honey, Squeezed lemonade, and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide inks as well. Because of the blending I got a nice smooth fog effect in the background.

After the inkblending I splattered on the background and the images with white watercolor to give the card a nice winter "its snowing" kind of effect. Once the background was dry, I stamped on it some snowflakes from the Skiing Bear Exclusive STAMPtember Stamp Set using a watermark ink.

Then I heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I repeated the same process on a piece of vellum, but this time with the let it snow sentiment, and heat embossed it with gold fine embossing powder. Thank you so much for stopping by, take a look at this amazing set. I wish you happy day! Hugs, Mona.

CARD INSTRUCTIONS

I made the glittery background with the Stars stencils on a pale pink cardstock with the Silver Glitz Glitter Gel. In the video I am showing you what is my favorite method for this process. While the background dries, I stamped the Halloween Wreath Stamp and the other coordinating images from the same stamp set with brown alcohol marker friendly inkpad to a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored them with Spectrum Noir Illustrators.

I have used the following colors: CT1, CT2, CT4, GY3, BO1, BO2, BO3, BO4, OR2, OR3, CR1, CR3, CR5, CR7, GB1 GB4, GB6, GB10, RB3, RB1, AP4, AP3, AP2, PP1, FS1, MG1, MG2, BG1, BG2, Blender. After the coloring I die-cut all the images and I colored the wheel with a pale pink alcohol marker.

Next, I continued with the die-cutting. I made more die-cuts from heavy weight cardstock, because I wanted to add thickness to the wreath and the spiders, in this case the interactive part will be more durable. Then I transformed the Happy Halloween Die-cuts made with the Happy Halloween Script Dies. This is a fun way to alter the scripted sentiments, in the video I am describing how.

When it was done, I created the interactive element and added the spider to the circle with fishing line, and created the card front. I covered the glittery background with a piece of vellum, and styled the circle, the sentiment and the other elements. In the end I styled my card and added some Metallic Rose Gold Sequins to it as a decoration. Thank you so much for stopping by, see you next time. Hugs, Mona.
