Just a note

Hi Crafty Friends,

My cards today were hard for me to make. Some old school friends lost their father and I have very fond memories of him. He would always light up the room and have a massive smile on his face no matter what. I wanted to make my friends a card each to show them I was thinking of them during this time.

I've pulled out the Heffy Doodle Just a Note stamp set alongside bears from the Unbearable Without You stamp set and Bed Head stamp set.



Stamp your images on alcohol marker paper and colour in your favourite medium. I'm using Copic markers B34, B43, B21,Y15, Y13, Y11, E37, E35, E33, E31.



Next I've taken the Scribble on my Heart stencil and created a subtle tone on tone look. I'm going for one blue card and one yellow. To create a tone on tone look ink blend onto coloured card stock! I've used Scattered Straw on Butterscotch card stock and Tumbled Glass on Cornflower card stock.

Cut the panels from Skinny Rectangle Frame dies.



Back your panels onto a white card base and use adhesive glue to attach your images to the front of your cards.

I like how these came out even under the circumstances I had to make them.



If you haven't yet seen the Heffy Doodle vault there are a ton of bargains to be had, Including the Unbearable Without You stamp set I have used today. Be sure to jump on over only a few left and the price is a steal! All products in the Vault are set to be retired, get them whilst you still can!

I then lay on top of the new  Winter Forest Backdrop Die TIP: As the backdrop die cuts a whole panel you need to line up and lay on top after cutting the 2 shadow box panels and partially die-cut each panel so we don't cut off...

April Challenge - MyBesties

Image
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 ha...

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...
