    • La-la Land Crafts with Pink & Main ~ Unicorn Marci on Watercolor Foil

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler
      May 10th

      Hi there crafty peeps!

      Crystal here sharing an adorable card today using Unicorn Marci and some absolutely beautiful paper from Pink & Main called Watercolor Foil.

      I shared a card last week using Unicorn Marci… you can check out that card here —> Unicorn Marci with Coffee Distress Oxide Watercolor card! I watercolored my card for last week, but for this week I wanted to use bright colors to coordinate the beautiful Watercolor Foil papers so I stamped Unicorn Marci using Gina K Designs Amalgam black ink and then colored her in using the following Copic markers:

      Skin ~ E000, E21, E51, R20

      Hair ~ E42, E43, E44, Y21

      Pajamas ~ RV10, RV14, RV17, RV25, N0, N1

      Slipper boots ~ N0, N1, Colorless Blender

      I die cut the Watercolor Foil papers and adhered them to a white card base. I then fussy cut Unicorn Marci and set her aside. I die cut some clouds that I lightly sponged with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink but any blue oxide ink would work. There happens to be this ink in the shop —> Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink… which would work just as well when lightly sponged on.

      I adhered the die cut clouds with liquid glue so I could adjust them quickly before they set. I popped up my fussy cut Unicorn Marci with foam tape. I then stamped the cute sentiment on white card stock with Gina K Designs Amalgam black ink, fussy cut a flag, and then popped it up on the card. I just love that beautiful shine from the foil in the Watercolor Foil papers! So pretty! I sure hope you’ve enjoyed my card!

      Thanks for checking out my blog post!

      See ya next time.

      Inky Hugs,

      Crystal

      Hello, it Stacy from Craftaholicmomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog with an enchanting card using the Hero Arts Fairy Kisses stamp set and papers from the Scrapberry’s “The Art of Nature” 6×6 paper pack.

      I die cut the pattern paper panel with a scallop stitched rectangle die from Gina Marie Designs. I stamped the sweet little fairy out with Gina K Designs Amalgam ink and colored her in with my Copic Markers. I hand fussy cut her out and popped her up on the card with adhesive foam squares. Her wings and dress have a touch of sparkle to them with a clear glitter sparkle marker.

      I heat embossed the star trails and sentiment with both white and clear embossing powders and Brutus Monroe Clear Embossing ink.

      The theme for the month of May is Magical World. I hope you enjoy all of the great projects we have for you this month.

    • Gina K Designs Warm Spring Wishes with Lynnea Hollendonner

      Posted at 1:00 pm by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Apr 17th

      Hey, everyone! It’s Lynnea and I created a set of one layer cards perfect for Spring using the Warm Spring Wishes stamp set from Gina K Designs!

      20190416_150937_resized

      I created my own stencil to use for these cards. It was so simple to do – I just took a piece of stencil plastic and die cut a circle from the center! I actually used the negative piece – the center circle – and adhered it to the center of my cards and used two colors of Distress Oxide Sprays over the top – Cracked Pistachio and Iced Spruce.

      20190416_151014_resized

      The basic layout of all four of my cards is the same. I stamped the leaf image from the Gina K Designs Warm Spring Wishes stamp set repeatedly around my masked circle and stamped a butterfly in the center. I used Distress Oxide Inks for all of my stamping except for the sentiment – I used Versafine Onyx Black ink for that.

      20190416_150956_resized

      I hope you’ll check out my video below for the tutorial! Thanks for stopping by!

    • Spring Greetings | Scrapping for Less

      Posted at 3:12 pm by LeeAnn McKinney
      Apr 13th

      Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with 2 cards I made using the Echo Park “Spring Showers” stamp set and some items from my stash.

      For this first card I stamped out my images, cut them and colored using Alcohol Markers. I decided then to use the Lawn Fawn Shadowbox Die set and create a fun card. I used GinaK Amalgam Ink to stamp my images as I knew I would be using the alcohol markers, and ScraPerfect “Best Glue Ever” to adhere my images within the card.

      This card was so easy to making using the Gina K Designs Wreath Builder. I used the small images from the Spring Showers stamp set and repeatedly stamped using the wreath builder and my Tim Holtz stamp platform. I colored the images using my alcohol markers, cut 2 circles using a set of dies from my stash and stamped the Hello Spring sentiment using GinaK Amalgam ink. I used foam to pop up the sentiment panel, ScraPerfect glue to adhere my layers together and with that my second project was complete.

      Please follow along with Scrapping For Less on All Social Media Outlets.

    • Gina K Designs Through Thick and Thin: No-Line Copic Coloring

      Posted at 8:45 am by infoscrappingforless
      Apr 3rd

      Hi crafters and welcome.  Today I am using the “Through Thick and Thin” stamp set by Gina K Designs to do some no-line Copic Coloring, which can be very scary.

      I stamped my image using second generation stamping with a Copic safe Ink to give a very faint outline but one that I can see well enough to do my coloring.  I did a bit of masking to stamp my flower and leaves multipole time.

      I colored my flowers using a 4 color blend concentrating on the details within the image itself to guide me as to where I need to put my shading and details.

      I created a drop shadow and a frame around my images and added my sentiment.  I finished off the card with a few Dream Drops by Nuvo.

      Be sure to check out the video for more information.  Thanks for stopping by and have a creative and crafty day!

      -Courtney

    • Polychromos and Gina K Designs Whimsical Wildflowers

      Posted at 10:00 am by infoscrappingforless
      Mar 16th

      Hello crafters and welcome.  I am sharing a card I created with the Gina K Designs stamp set called Whimsical Wildflowers.

      I wanted to make this look like a chalkboard and honestly had no idea how to achieve that look.  I experimented by stamping my image with white pigment ink and colored them in with my Polychromos.  I dabbed on some of the pigment ink around my images with a dray paper towel and adhered my panel onto a white A2 size notecard.

      Be sure to check out the video for more information.  Thanks for stopping by and have a creative and crafty day!

      -Courtney

    • Monster-ous Birthday Wishes | Scrapping for Less

      Posted at 12:53 pm by Stacy Tiedemann
      Mar 5th

      Happy Tuesday!  It’s Stacy here from Craftaholicmomma up on the Scrapping for Less blog today.  For the Month of March we are going to be focusing on Celebrations, of all kinds.  Today I have six cards I made in rainbow colors using the Your Next Stamp Silly Monsters stamp set.  I layered the MFT horizontal collage cover die over panels of pattern paper from the Sunny Studio Polka Dot Parade collection.   I used the MFT happy birthday candles die to cut a bunch of candles from the Sunny Studio Striped Silly 6x6 paper collection.

      I used gold foil cardstock to die cut the flames of the candles.  I stamped all of my images with Gina K Amalgam Black Ink and colored them in with my Copic Markers and mounted them on adhesive foam squares.  I used Versafine Onyx Black ink for the sentiment.

      Adding googly eyes and confetti sequins gave them that “something something”  I hope you enjoy my cards and find inspiration. 

       

       

       

       

      Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you enjoy all of the great Celebrations projects this month.
