Simple And Elegant Wedding Card Plus Video (ft. Newton’s Nook Designs)

Hello and welcome!!!
I’m so happy you’ve joined me today and even more excited to be on the Newton’s Nook Designs blog sharing a simple and elegant heat embossed wedding card!

I’m playing with amazing big flower Blooming Botanicals and Wedding Frills stamp sets. For the layout I made some die cutting with Frames & Flags Die Set.

To start, I inked a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock with Hydrangea Dye ink from Simon Says Stamp using Picked Fence Life Changing Blender Brushes. Next I heat embossed large background using Blooming Botanicals stamp and VersaMark ink. It’s a great way to get more use out of such big stamps. You can achieve beautiful piece in no time at all and there’s no need to color every single flower.

The stitched frame and a flag piece used for the layout come from Frames & Flags Die Set. Finally the sentiment was added from Wedding Frills stamp set and the whole piece was embellished with lots of tone on tone sequins adhered with Multi Medium Matte glue since it dries clear.

Hope this project will inspire you to get another look on the big stamps you have in your stash! As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Let’s Celebrate Card – Stretch Your Stamps Card Series (ft. Purple Onion Designs)

January 30, 2019 Tatiana2 Comments

Hello and welcome!!!
I’m so happy you’ve joined me today because I have to share a cute all occasions shaker card made with stamps from the Purple Onion Designs winter collection!

Yes, I’m stretching more my craft supplies! I chose Elm Puppy and Little Packages stamps, stamped them on Strathmore Bristol paper with VersaFine Onyx Black ink and colored with Tombow markers.

As always here’re all the exact colors I used here: Tombow Markers n.026, n.443, n.451, n.476, n.603, n.723, n.725, n.845, n.991.

I let air dry all the watercolor pieces and meantime prepared a square 4½” x 4½” shaker card base. To built the shaker area I trimmed another square, die cut a circle window inside, added a piece of a clear acetate from the back side and popped it of a foam tape. Before adhering the window piece, I inked the card base with Victorian Velvet and Spun Sugar Distress inks and added a few matching sequins. I decided to frame the shaker window with a scalloped circle and finally arranged the colored elements along with a heat embossed sentiment from Sweet Occasions Sentiment Set.

Hope you like this sweet card! As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Stretch Your Holiday Stamps Card (ft. SugarPea Designs)

January 15, 2019January 14, 2019 Tatiana1 Comment

Hello and welcome!
I’m super excited to be featured on SugarPea Designs blog today and to share with you some ideas how you can stretch your holiday stamps and use them all year round!

Today I played with a super adorable Eskimo Kisses stamp set filled with lots of fun critters and chose two kissing penguins since they go perfectly with Valentine’s Day that is approaching so fast! And a few “love” theme cards come handy in the stash! Right?!

To start I stamped a few images on Strathmore Bristol paper with VersaFine Onyx Black ink since it’s waterproof, colored them with water based markers and fussy cut leaving a little white edge around.

Here’s the complete list of all TOMBOW markers I used here: n.N79, n.025, n.090, n.133, n.195, n.565, n.606, n.620, n.723, n.725, n.933, n.985.

The change of a color combo is the most easy way to make your stamps look differently from what they originally were meant to be! I prepared a pinky-orange shaker window by ink blending Fossilized Amber and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide inks on the card front and die cutting a round circle from Zig Zag Stitched Circles SugarCuts on an additional white panel, trimmed slightly smaller than the regular A2 size card base. I filled the shaker window with some heart shaped sequins and then sealed everything. Finally I popped the colored elements on a foam tape and added the heat embossed sentiment from the same Eskimo Kisses stamp set.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Christmas Card With Summer Stamps Plus Video (ft. Newton’s Nook Designs)

August 30, 2018August 30, 2018 Tatiana1 Comment

Hello and welcome!!!
I’m so happy you’ve joined me today and even more excited to be on the Newton’s Nook Designs blog sharing my first Christmas card this year!

Flipping through my stash, I found the adorable camper stamps from Cozy Campers set and thought that the small camper with the lights would be perfect for a Christmas card. I die cut a bunch of elements for my scene from Cozy Campers and Snow Globe Scenes die sets and next stamped the matching images from Cozy Campers and Snow Globe Scenes stamp sets using Memento Tuxedo Black ink since it’s copic friendly.

The circle window was added to the card front from Snow Globe Scenes Shaker die set and the amazing sentiment from Sentiments of the Season was simply stamped with the same black ink I used before. The versatile Bubbly stencil added a falling snow effect along with Snow Marker from Marvy brand and Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter. And now I’m leaving you with video tutorial!!!

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

One Stamp Four Ways (ft. Crafting Desert Divas)

July 16, 2018 TatianaLeave a comment

Happy Monday Everyone!

I’m so thrilled to be on the Craftin Desert Divas blog today with a special post featuring brand new and sooooooo adorable Fruity Friends Days stamp set from the Craftin Desert Divas new July Release!!!

This is a long post filled with lots of pictures and so let’s start immediately with the first card colored with copic markers.

I chose some cute fruity characters from Fruity Friends Days set and stamped them with a copic friendly black ink. Next I proceeded with coloring and finally fussy cut everything with sharp scissors leaving a little white edge around.

Here’s the complete list of copic markers I used here: skin E0000-E01-E02-E11-R20; YG00-YG01-YG13-YG25-YG95; R02-R05; hair Y21-YR24-YR29-E39; Y11-Y15-Y17-YR24; E33; BG00.

Working on the layout, I die cut three stitched frames from Fancy Frame Die Set, added a soft layer of Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide ink and a fun dotted pattern through Sorted Shapes Stencil with a plain white embossing paste.

Next we have a soft watercolor scene.

I switch to a Bristol paper and stamped a few adorable girls from Fruity Friends along with some small images from Garden Bugs stamp sets with a waterproof black ink.

Before making the coloring I also prepared some die cuts for the background using the same Bristol paper, Flower Border Dies and Fancy Frame Die Sets.

Finally I could enjoy watercoloring the whole card with the watercolor pencils from Prima. “The Basics” 12 piece set was more than enough for this card since you can stretch any color and create a variety of shades by adding less or more water.

My third example is this colorful and bright shaker card.

Once more I started with a Bristol paper and a waterproof black ink, but gave a totally different look to this card due to Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers and their incredibly juicy colors.

Here’s the complete list of all the colors used: n.51 Lemon Yellow – n.50 Yellow – n.25 Pale Pink – n.26 Light Pink – Peach Pink – Dark Pink – n.40 Green – n.46 Mid Green – n.71 Flesh Colour – n.61 Light Brown – n.64 Oatmeal

Assembling the shaker part, I prepared a watercolor background and filled the circle window with Jungle Berries Sequins mix.

Last but not least I created a colorful fruity background using small stamps from Fruity Friends set. I love to play with small stamps and give them a main focus on my cards. The patterned background is one of the easiest ways for that.

I stamped a whole bunch of images on a watercolor paper, took my regular watercolors and tried to make a non perfect, a little bit splotchy watercolor look. Next I decided to transform my pattern into a scalloped circle card with Inside Scalloped Circle Dies and finished with the heat embossed sentiment from the same Fruity Friends set put on a fish-tail banner.

That’s all for today! Hope this post will inspire you to stretch your craft supplies and get more use of the same stamp set! And please let me know in the comments below which card is your favorite!!! I’m very curious to hear from you!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous week!
