In the meantime, let me show you my card featuring GALADRIEL:)

Stamp: Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Galadriel

Colouring: Copics, Polychromos and Distress Inks on Make It Colour Blending Card

I love Annie's stamps! Isn't she fantastic? I have used Copics, Polychromos and Distress Inks to colour my card which I kept very simple as always and I was inspired by one of the sentiments in the set "Moonlight drowns out all but the brightest stars", hence the colour of my background and the little stars:) Here is the whole Galadriel set:

That's all from me today, have fun hopping!

CC Designs Wingy Things

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a tiny make, one of my ATCs on card using one of the new CC Designs stamp sets - Meoples Wingy Things!

I stamped two of the four characters from the Wingy Things set on Make It Colour Blending Card and die cut them using the matching CC Designs Cutter Wingy Things Die. I then coloured my images in Copics. The background was made using Distress Inks sponged with an Ink Blending Tool and a cloud template. I added a flower border and a little heart with stickles - I just love adding hearts - and I stamped a sentiment from the AmyR Elegant Valentine set in the cloud. 

Copics used:

Hair: E49, 55, 59/ E51, 53, 55, Y11

Flashy Quixotic Paperie DT :)

Hello everyone! I think I am tired of the cold, grey weather... hence the need for some sun and flashy colours, I guess!!! I have used one my Tiddly Inks stamp sets available from Quixotic Paperie and went a bit colour crazy on this one ;)

I stamped Wryn from the Sweets for my Sweet stamp set on Make It Colour Blending Card, coloured her in Copics, then cut her out. The word SWEET is from the same set, stamped on Make It Colour Blending Card, coloured in Copics too and I cut out the letters. For the background I used watercolour paper covered in different acrylic paints (and Distress Ink for the ground) and a stencil from my stash with modeling paste for the sun. The dark spots and swirls were done with 2 different stencils too, dabbed with ink. And last little detail, I added white sticker letters to complete the sentiment.

CC Designs February Previews

Hello everyone! The CC Designs February stamps will all be available on Saturday, but to help you be patient, here is a little sneak peek with my card featuring one of the new Roberto's Rascals stamps:)

Stamps: CC Designs Erica Texting, Teen Sentiments

Colouring: Copics on Make It Colour Blending Card, watercolour on Canson Montval

Stencils: CC Designs Mini Hearts, CC Designs Heart Drop

The background was painted in watercolour and I used embossing paste and two new stencils by CC Designs to add the hearts - I love those stencils!!! I did not want to have hearts everywhere in a perfect background, so I left a few spaces blank and did not cover all the heart holes in my stencil. I also left a space to add a bigger heart from the Heart Drop stencil.

Challenges I am entering:

Crafty Sentiments - Include a heart

Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Hearts

Dream Valley - Valentine's Day

Hello everyone! Jennifer Dove from DoveArt Studio is back with another collection of amazing stamps!

We have a wonderful, colorful hop for you to enjoy today. The stamps are available for purchase now, you will want them all by the end of the hop.

You can purchase the stamps here.

I played with the gorgeous stamp called Lilac And Butterfly stamp and made a CAS card - of course ;)!

I stamped my image on Make It Colour Blending Card and coloured it in Copics.

I did some fussy cutting to put my flowers on 3D foam squares and placed it on a piece of Stamperia DP. The sentiment is from CC Designs.
