Stock Your Stash June Challenge (ft. Reverse Confetti)

June 22, 2018 Tatiana1 Comment

Hello and welcome!!!
I’ve popped in today to share a lovely card made for the Reverse Confetti monthly challenge!

Stock Your Stash is a new challenge on the Reverse Confetti blog posted on the 1st of each month. The sketch link list will be open from the 1st until noon CST on the 29th of the month. You may enter as many times as you wish and use #SYSChallenge when playing along with this challenge. There will be a random winner selected each month and that person will receive a $20 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti store. The theme of the current month as you could guess is “Hello/ Just Because”!!!

My inspiration card turned out clean and simple, but with a pop of bright summer colors! Today I played with beautiful Pattern Blocks stamp set and first of all stamped the flower pattern with a light beige dye ink on Neenah Solar White cardstock since my intention was to make a no-line coloring with copic markers and the stamp outlines didn’t have to show through. Please scroll down toward the bottom of this post for the complete list of copic markers I used here. Once finished with coloring which to be honest took me quite some time, I decided to frame the colored flowers with Stitched Square Confetti Cuts for an artsy look. I kept the rest of the card clean and simple as I didn’t want to disturb attention from the coloring and only added the matching sentiment which handwritten style goes perfectly with the whole design.

Hope you like this lovely card! As always thanks so much for stopping by and have a fantastic day!

Crafting Desert Divas – June Release Replay – 100% Magical

June 21, 2018June 21, 2018 Tatiana2 Comments

Hello and welcome!!!!
I’ve popped in with a mermazing card today and another look at the new and so adorable 100% Magical stamp set the Craftin Desert Divas June release!

Well, although this card looks quite clean and simple somehow I managed to use tons of new and old products on it!!! I started of course with 100% Magical stamp set. I stamped the fabulous unicorns with a waterproof black ink on Strathmore Bristol paper, colored with Zig markers and fussy cut leaving a little white edge around. Next I prepared an ombré background blending Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide inks and applied on top the wave pattern through Sorted Shapes 2 Stencil with a white embossing paste. I die cut two beautiful stitched clouds and two layers of waves from a vellum and heat embossed the sentiment from the same 100% Magical stamp set on the top one. Assembling all the elements I was wondering how to adhere the transparent vellum to the card without having the glue showing through. I solved this problem by applying first some sequins with Multi Medium Matte since it dries clear and then hid the tiny glue dots behind them toward the bottom right part of the card and some others behind the big heat embossed sentiment towards the bottom left part.

That’s all for today! Hope you like this cute mermaizing card! Need more inspiration? Please, check Craftin Desert Divas Gallery on Facebook for more amazing projects and inspiration from the Design Team, freebies and awesome giveaways! As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Newton’s Nook Designs June Release and Giveaway – Day 4 – Newton’s Kitchen

June 21, 2018June 21, 2018 Tatiana19 Comments

Hello and welcome!
Can’t believe that we reached the last day of the Newton’s Nook Designs June Release so fast! Yes, times fly!!!
All the new June products will be available for purchase on Friday, June 22th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

Last but not least we have today a stamp set featuring my ever favorite mischief Newton in new and SOOOOO AAAAAA-DORABLE Newton’s Kitchen stamp set! In case you’re interested, this stamp set comes with the coordinating dies!!!

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving new Newton’s Kitchen stamp set away to one lucky winner so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!

I started working on my card from the background since I was not sure about the color combo I wanted to use here. First of all took a piece of Distress cardstock, tipped new Serene Stripes stencil on top and applied Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink with and ink blending tool trying to make an ombré effect. Since the background was looking to me too colorful and could overwhelm over the images I added lately, I decide to move the stencil a little bit and apply a white embossing paste on top. I loved the result this time and so I set everything apart and let it air dry while I was working with the main images.

When I first saw Newton’s Kitchen stamp set, I immediately thought that it would be a fabulous addition to the Made From Scratch stamp set. And so I stamped some cute images from both stamp sets on Strathmore Bristol paper, die cut the cute kitty with the coordinating dies and fussy cut all the others leaving a little white edge around since I don’t have the dies for that set. I colored all the elements with Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers and heat embossed the fantastic sentiment from the same Newton’s Kitchen set on a piece of a black cardstock. Finally I assembled all the elements with a bit of dimension and adhered a couple of matching sequins.

One last thing!!! NND fans had requested the coordinating dies for some “old” sets and so tomorrow along with the new June release, you’ll find 3 coordinating die sets for summer favorites at the NND online store!!!

Newton’s Nook Designs June Release and Giveaway – Day 3 – Wine A Little and Coffee & Wine

June 20, 2018June 21, 2018 Tatiana21 Comments

Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the Newton’s Nook Designs June Release!
All the new June products will be available for purchase on Friday, June 22th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

Today all the Design Team is focusing on two amazing stamp sets! The first one is called Wine A Little and it comes with the coordinating dies! And the second one is small, but so adorable Coffee & Wine set!

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving both new stamp sets away to lucky winners so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!

Today I tried to stretch both stamp sets as much as I can and used them in different ways with different coloring mediums and techniques.

The first card featuring Wine A Little stamp set has a few cute images as a focus point. All of them were die cut with the coordinating dies on Strathmore Bristol paper and colored with Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers. I also added a little heart on the bottle of wine from Newton Loves Coffee stamp set. Working on the layout I reached again to the die cutting working with inside scalloped frame from Framework Die Set. Then I filled the light green rectangle by repeatedly stamping with VersaMark clear sticky ink some little images from Wine A Little stamp set and heat embossing them with a fine detailed white embossing powder to achieve a fun pattern. Next I switched to the sentiments and after heat embossing the main on a strip of a black cardstock, I grabbed another couple of the sentiments from the same Wine A Little set and made a tone-on-tone stamping on the kraft background.

Working on my second card, I started with a watercolor piece of paper and divided it in two parts with Land Border Die set. One of them was filled with coffee images from Coffee & Wine stamp set and the other with wine theme elements to match the beautiful big sentiment from the same Coffee & Wine stamp set that was heat embossed on a black cardstock.

As you may guess, the choice of the watercolor paper was guided by the coloring medium that I decided to use on this card. I took my regular watercolors and tried to make a very loose watercoloring. Honestly it was hard for me not to stay in the stamp lines, but I wet well the paper before dropping the colors on top and let the water do the work for me and spread the colors all across.

Assembling the card, I popped all the elements on foam tape for a bit of dimension and added a few clear sequins as a finish touch.

Would you like to win the “Wine A Little” or “Coffee & Wine” Stamp Sets?
Both stamp set will be given away to lucky winners!
