Scrappy Boy Stamps - Arabian Nights

Hey Crafty Friends,

I'm sharing my 2nd project using the latest Arabian Nights stamp set from Scrappy Boy Stamps. I've steered away from creating a card today that suites to overall theme of this set to show how just one single stamp in a set can be used in different ways. It doesn't have to be this stamp set exactly, look through stamp sets you own and see if you are able to take a single stamp and use it in some way! It's a great way to maybe use a stamp set you haven't used for some time!

Card Recipe:

1. Take a large stitched rectangle and die cut from Oreo Crunch card stock.

2. Take the next stitched rectangle in your die set and die cut from Pumpkin Patch card stock

3. With your orange card panel use a Woodgrain background die plate. This particular one has a running stitch so could also be used in slimline cards!

4. To create the polaroid look I have taken some dies, one is a rectangle shape and one is more square, cut the square slightly higher than central and you've got yourself a polaroid frame! Using the square die cut from Kiwi Crush card stock.

5. Die cut some leaves from various green shade card stock. I've used scraps from my draw however you could also use inks to create your different green shades also.

6. Stamp your image on alcohol marker friendly card stock and colour in your favourite medium. I'm using Copics just 2 colours today Y38 and Y35.

Tip: If you don't have a 3rd marker in the combo you want to use you can use 2 and then use the darker marker, in my case here Y38 for 2 or 3 more layers of ink to create darker shadow areas.

7. Take a stamping platform and your polaroid frame to stamp your sentiment on before you start piecing it all together.

8. Take your green square you cut previously and glue your image onto this square. Now glue your leaves around the image, it doesn't matter if they are overhanging to make sure you image is still fully seen, as you can see in mine below I have only use part of the leaves and then snipped off the overhang. 

9. Layer your panels up with double sided tape


I hope you have enjoyed today's inspiration and are inspired to try something similar. I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Until next time, happy crafting!

Hey Crafty Friends, It's a new month so that means the start of a new challenge over on the Colour it, Create it, Show it off challenge blog, as always our challenge is anything goes, that's any image, any project. Why not grab you favourite set and join us  here. If you would like to treat yourself to a new image you can find all the MyBesties images  here. This will be a shorter post again today, it's a very simple card. I coloured the image in Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and fussy cut around her. Taking a card blank and used Kitsch flamingo distress ink to bring down some colour to about a quarter down the panel and fade out into the white to give a very soft look and feel. Using some trees branches, flowers and leaves from a couple sets in my stash and a birthday sentiment to top this off and bring it all together.  I cant wait to see what you come up with for the challenge! This card was sent to a fellow crafter on Instagram in a birthday swap, it gave me joy to have

Swan Galaxy - Interactive card!

Image
Hey Crafty Friends, Welcome back, I'm sharing my usual design team post for Crafty Purple Frog a few days early because I am so impatient and love this card so much that I wanted to share with you all at the earliest opportunity!  Today's card is very fitting, I usually make a card with someone in mind or themed around something I've seen. My idea for this came as soon as I saw the set 'Spread your wings' This beautiful swan has big regal wings that meant it deserved the opportunity to fly! To start up I took a scalloped slimline frame die and inked up a galaxy type background, now the thing to remember with creating a galaxy background is it might look like a hot mess to start with! A galaxy background can use any colours you feel are fitting, I'm using Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple. You can put some greens and pinks in too if you would like.  Take a blending tool, I'm using a blending brush and bring in random sections of colour using you
