Little Fox

Hi there,

as you may have seen in my Instagram Story on Tuesday I created this card for Mennys Bastelshop using two items from the new Impronte d'Autore Release - the Fox and the Alberi die sets:

  • cut out the Impronte d'Autore Fox from colored cardstock and add extra shading with Distress Ink (Rusty Hinge, Lost Shadow, Tattered Rose) and highlights with a white gel pen
  • create a background with the help of  Distress Oxide Inks (Carved Pumpkin, Peacock Feathers, Chipped Sapphire)
  • add the Impronte d'Autore Alberi and a hillshape cut from Neenah Desert Storm kraft cardstock
  • the sentiment strip is the finishing touch

Thanks for stopping by today.

Hugs,

Birdhouse

Hi there,

I created this card using an image from the Karten-Kunst Vogelglück stamp set:

  • stamp the birdhouse from the Karten-Kunst Vogelglück set with Distress Ink Antique Linen
  • mask the image and stamp one of the sentiments from the Karten-Kunst Quadratische Texte set with Versamark and heat-emboss it with Distress Embossing Glaze Broken China
  • color the image with watercolors and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • mat the panel onto a piece of kraft cardstock
  • create some circles from kraft cardstock with the help of the Karten-Kunst DIN A6 Card Designer Nr. 2 die set and a paper punch 
  • adhere the panel and the circles to a cream cardbase and add faux stitching using a dark brown fineliner

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,
