Summer is coming.. somewhen.. so maybe we all can grab our water/sea/fishy-Stamps to create cards wich makes you want to have the summer now....
For some time now I really wanted to try out these "sunbeams break through the water"-thing. There are some great artists or lessons outthere, and you can surely do it with copics. But I wanted to try it with Distress Oxides.
Here you can watch the Video in english
.. and here in good old German ;-)
If you do not have a stencil like that, you can create one by your own. Just take some stable acetate, draw your lines with pencil & ruler and then cut it with your scissors or cutter-knife.
The newest Release-Week hast just startet!!! Wohooo! Stay tuned of all the sneak-Peaks you'll see here, or on Isntagram or in our Facebook-Groum :-)
I am sharing an ocean card with you today featuring the new cling stamp Ocean Waves.
This new stamp called Ocean Waves is a must have!When I saw all my lovely team mates use this stamp I liked each and every card they made with it. Of course they are absolutely talented and make awesome cards all the time but I think it is the stamp, too. You can't do anything wrong with this stamp. So I needed to make an ocean card, too. And I combined it with another new passion of me: Colouring on coloured cardstock with pencils - love it!
Coloured pencils - especially Prismacolor and Polychromos - shine so bright on Kraft cardstock! And the colours get even brighter if you lay down a base coat of white pencil.
White embossing adds in to this effect.
Leave a wider border around your base layer. Then your images can hang over the edge. It adds intrest to your card.
We have a challenge on the blog (see sidebar) and one on our Facebook group - play along!
Hey stampers, Anni here!
Today I have three tags to show!
I still felt inspired by the last challenge called Tag It (I'm sorry, it's over), so I wanted to make some tags. And I am totally in love with alcohol inks right now that's why I had to include them in my project.
I started by creating an alcohol background. I used alcohol inks and blender solution.
From that background I die cut three tags.
As it looked like water I decided to go with matching images. I stamped, coloured and fussy cut them.
For the sentiments I was inspired by the current challenge (it started today). The theme is For Someone Special. The meaning of the sentiments is "For You", "Friends Like You are the best" and "Feel hugged".
I added some details as rhinestones, hearts and Nuvo drops.
