      Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with a super fun new release from Scrapping for Less… Summer Floaties stamp set and paper pad!! Oh my cuteness… this is such an adorable set and the papers coordinate perfectly!!
      So… I’ve been on a bit of a Slimline kick! Lol… have you tried making one yet?! They are so fun! I love that extra bit of space to create with! I used a fun sketch from over at the Poetic Artistry blog, the current Mojo Monday sketch challenge. I did make my slimline card a little bigger than the one posted for the sketch… this one is the trendy size that measures 3-1/2 x 8-1/2″.
      Isn’t she just the cutest?!
      I had so much fun coloring her in this sweet little scene. I used the following Copic markers:
      Skin / Glasses ~ E000, E01, E11, No, BV01, R00, R21
      Hair ~ E34, E51, E97
      Bikini / Hat ~ Y06, Y11, Y13, YG03, YG11, R14, R21, R32
      Pineapple / Drink ~ Y06, E25, YG03, YG11, YG63, N0, R0000, R14, R21, R32, YR15, YR68
      Umbrella / Blanket ~R00, R21, R32, C00, C1, B00, B02
      Sand / Water / Sky ~ E25, E33, BG000, BG01, B0000, B000
      I wanted to jazz up the sentiment so I thought a copic colored sun would be fun! I used Y000, Y11, Y06, and Y15.
      A sweet summer time slimline card! I hope you like it!

      I have a little process video for this card. I hope you’ll check it out!
      Thanks for stopping by!
      See ya next time.
      Inky Hugs,
      Crystal

    • Single Layer Beach Scene with SFL

      Hi Everyone!  Luci here with a single layer card using the Brand New Release from SFL “Winter Fairies” and “At the Beach Sentiments” from the June 2018 FOTM Kit! How adorable are these sets!

      I don’t know about you, but here in the Midwest the weather has been yucky and I’m about ready for a beach day! So I thought I would create my own.

      When I saw Crystal’s card using the lights in this set I knew I needed to use them but with a tropical theme!

      I created the scene by masking and coloring with Copic Markers and Distress Oxide Inks. I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and using Copper Embossing Powder heat embossed it. I finished off the card by using Glossy Accents on the lights, drink, flipflops and Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Pen on the water!

      Check out the process video HERE!

      I made an A2 size card or 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 inches, I cut a panel to 5 1/4 X 4 inches for the scene. I made some masks for the images, and I stamped and masked as I went, using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink for stamping the images I was going to color.

      I drew in lines for the cabana, horizon, and beach with a pencil before I started ink blending and then colored the images.  After I finish coloring and blending I stamped and embossed the sentiment. I added the glossy accents, the Sparkle Pen for the reflection of the sunset on the water. After it dried I adhered the panel to the card base and used a black Zig Marker to outline the wires on the string lights.

    • Winter Fairy House ~ Fairy Warm Winter

      Posted at 9:00 am by Crystal O. Minkler

      Hello there crafty friends! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with a sweet little copic colored scene created using the cute Winter Fairy House stamp set from Scrapping for Less!! I am loving this adorable fairy cottage… it looks so cozy!

      I knew that I wanted to create a little snowy scene with the cottage from the Winter Fairy House stamp set and the trees from the Winter Fairies stamp set. They work perfectly together!! I stamped the cottage on a card front of white card stock measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I then stamped the cottage and trees on another piece of white card stock and colored them with the following copic markers:

      Fairy Cottage ~ BV00, BV02, BV08, BV11, R00, R81, R83, Y000, Y11, N0, N1, N2, N4

      Trees ~ YG0000, YG11, YG61

      Snow ~ C00, C1, C3

      Sky ~ B0000, B000, B00, B01

      Once all the trees and the cottage were colored, I fussy cut them and cleaned up the edges with a Memento tuxedo black marker. I even cut apart a pair of trees giving me more options in creating my scene. I then set the images aside and grabbed the card front that I had previously stamped the cottage on. I wanted to create a snowy scene but still have a lot of white left on the card… since I was going to basically paper piece the cottage I was able to color over the image on the card front but still have an idea of placement for all of the images. 

      I started by drawing a light line of blue with the lightest blue copic marker across the card front to divide the sky and the snow. I then colored the sky by just flicking my markers upwards working from lightest to darkest blue until I was happy with the blend. I then added just a little bit of shadow with a light gray copic marker for all of my snow. I placed the trees in the areas that I planned to adhere them and colored the shadows for those, as well. 

      I adhered all of the elements for my scene using a liquid glue and then adhered the entire panel to a dark purple card base… I think this turned out really cute! To finish off the card, I stamped the sentiment on a scrap of white card stock and mat it on black card stock. I adhered it to the card and decided this one was done. I just love how cozy this little scene feels!

      Thanks so much for stopping by! See ya next time.

      Inky Hugs,

      Crystal

    • Winter Fairies ~ Bright Fairy Wishes

      Hello there crafty friends! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with another sweet card using the adorable Winter Fairies stamp set by Scrapping for Less. I couldn’t wait to ink up this adorable fairy napping on the moon… doesn’t she just look so happy?! Love it!

      I started by stamping the cute fairy on the moon with Memento tuxedo black ink and then I colored the image in with the following copic markers:

      Skin ~ E000, E00, E21, R00, R20

      Hair ~ E35, E37

      Clothes ~ RV0000, RV10, RV11, C00, C1

      Moon/Cloud ~ Y000, Y11, Y13, Y18, B000

      Once the cute fairy and moon were colored, I fussy cut them… and even used my craft knife to cut the tiny space between the fairy’s hat and the moon. I just realized that I missed the space between her hat and her wing… oops! Anywho, I set that aside and got to work on the background.

      I blended a tiny bit of Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide ink in the center left portion of the panel and blended some Tumbled Glass, Blueprint Sketch, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide inks around that center portion working my way outwards to the edge. I blended over these a few times to get just the right blend. I then dried my background with a heat tool and splattered some white acrylic paint onto the background for my stars.

      I set the background aside to dry and die cut the stitched scallop frame from Gina Marie Designs and the stitched clouds from Lawn Fawn, both from white card stock. I then adhered the clouds to the back of the frame piece and trimmed the edges. I trimmed down the blended background to 4-1/8 x 5-3/8″ and then popped up the frame/cloud piece on the blended background.

      I then adhered the entire panel onto a white card base. I love how this sweet card turned out! I sure hope that you like it too!

      Thanks so much for stopping by! See ya next time.

      Inky Hugs,

      Crystal

    • Winter Fairies ~ Bright Winter Wishes

      Hello there crafty friends! Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with a beautiful card using the newly released Winter Fairies stamp set for a card that could be used for the Holidays or just a winter themed card to brighten someone’s day! 

      This is a two step stamping process… I stamped the light string three times on a white card front measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ using Memento tuxedo black ink. I then lined up the little light bulb and stamped it using different colors.

      I then colored in each of the little light sockets and bulbs… which actually didn’t take very long. The lights are so cute and quick to color in. I used the following copic markers:

      Light Sockets ~ N0, N2, N5, N7, N9

      Light Bulbs ~ R000, R14, R29, Y000, Y13, Y35, B0000, B00, B02, B04, G0000, G000, G46, YG11, YG63

      I gave each of the little light bulbs a bit of a glow by coloring around the light bulb with the lightest color. The green was a little dark so I ended up going around the outer edge of the glow with the Colorless Blender… lightened it right up! I placed my card front in my Travel Stamp Platform and lined up the sentiment. Sadly, I didn’t notice a bit of ink that I had neglected to clean off of my platform so I ended up with a couple of smudges near both ends of my crisp clean white card front *insert palm to head emoji*… I tried to fix it with my handy dandy Tombow Mono Sand Eraser, but it wouldn’t work. I opted to trim off the ends. 

      So… I decided to pop up the panel onto a white card base and I’m actually really happy with the end result! I hope you like it too! Be sure to check out the new release… there’s only a limited number available!!

      Thanks so much for stopping by! See ya next time.

      Inky Hugs,

      Crystal
