Marigold stamps set

Marigold Crafting Dies

Technique Tuesday

I just love these gorgeous marigolds from this months release at Technique Tuesday.

I created two cards with this set. One as a mini slimline and another as an A2 card.

Both I used brick stencils for the backgrounds with oxide inks. Mowed lawn for one, scattered straw for the other.

I used both Copic and spectrum noir to colour the flowers and used the coordinating Die to cut them out. Two flowers were added to cover the slimline.

I used Gina K obsidian black ink to stamp two of the sentiments from the set on the cards.

How cute are these otters from the May release at Technique Tuesday? There is two different otters and some sea elements in this set.

I was excited to finally get the chance to colour up these cuties and give them a home to hang out on.

I created two cards using this fun set using one of the otters for both cards. I have the other one coloured up and ready for future cards in my stash.

Opal and otter Clear Stamp Set

Opal and Otter Crafting Dies

Technique Tuesday

I stayed with the same colour theme for both cards using mermaid lagoon for one and the other mermaid lagoon, tumbled glass and patina oxide inks.

I die cut a polka dot panel from a sheet I Ink blended using the 3 oxide inks on. I added foam tape to the back of the popped out Circles and placed them on my white card front.

I added a wave die cut tucked behind a white circle die cut and positioned and glued the otter in front.

My sentiment was stamped in black ink in the center of the circle.

The other card I layered some white circle die cuts to the center in front of a bubble stencilled background blended in mermaid lagoon oxide ink. My sentiment was stamped in black ink to the center.

This set has so many fabulous sentiments and would be a easy set to make batch cards with and or masculine cards. (Which I definitely struggle with)

To make these cards.

Stencil a water patterned stencil on white card stock for both cards. One panel I slightly trimmed down, the other I used a stitched die to center on my other card.

Stamp your sentiments on both cards using black ink.

Colour and die cut the orcas and attach to card bases with foam tape.

Add a few of the additional images, sequins or embellishments to finish the cards.

For my first card I started with a white card base and added a stencilled panel on top that I inked with wild honey distress oxide ink as well as a sentiment heat embossed on it.

On top of this I added a scalloped frame die cut that I attached with foam tape.

I finished the card with the bootiful tulip stamp that I attached with liquid glue.

For my second card I started with a white card base. I die cut 3 smaller pierced rectangle panels. For two of the panels I used seedless preserves to ink the panels. One I inked the entire panel, the other I used a polka dot stencil.

The last panel I left white and stamped the sentiment that came with the bootiful tulips set.

I finished the card with bootiful tulip propped up on foam tape.

Anemone Stamp Set

Anemone Crafting Dies

TECHNIQUE TUESDAY

For both cards I used stencilled backgrounds.

For the hearts I masked off a strip of the card panel and stencilled inside that section. I added some white paint splatters and perfect pearls in a shimmery gold tone over top of the stencilled section. I pulled out a jar of prills in a yellow colour and added to the center of the flower.

The blue card I glued on heart embellishments following the stencil pattern, added a circle die cut to the center of the card for an area to place the sentiment.

Both cards I coloured the anemones and leaves with Copics and attached with foam tape.

This month Technique Tuesdays animal house release is full of Koala cuteness. I have two cards I’m sharing today using these Australian cuties.

Ken and Kiki Stamp and Die Set

Technique Tuesday

Both cards were started with stencilled leafy patterns on white card stock. I kept the colour palette the same for both in soft organic greens using bundled sage oxide inks. One was placed on a green panel, a sentiment trimmed down to fit the card and mom and baby placed off to the side of a leafy wreath.

The other card was made very similar with a wreath centre. I used the new wrapped bouquet and trimmed off the bottom portion and kept the foliage. I tucked the single Koala behind and placed some falling leaves around the card. I added a fussy cut sentiment off to the side to complete my card.
