Thinking of You Snowdrop

Hi there,

I created this Mixed-Media Card for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

  • stamp the Karten-Kunst Schneeglöckchen onto a piece of smooth white cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black
  • color the image with Ohuhu Markers and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • cut the right side of the panel with one of the Karten-Kunst Torn Borders
  • ink up the edges with Distress Ink Tea Dye
  • add more interest to the background by using the Karten-Kunst Script Background, the Karten-Kunst Splatters Create and Distress Oxide Ink Tea Dye
  • add a strip of patterned paper to the right side of the panel before adhering it to a cardbase
  • stamp the sentiment from the Karten-Kunst Textrahmen-Worte 2 set with Versafine Clair Portobello

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

New STAMPlorations ATCs

Hi there,

I just wanted to let you know that there are some fabulous new STAMPlorations ATC packs out in the shop. On these projects I used the Retro Femme, Color Me Spring and the Whimsical Homes:

  • create a background on a piece of watercolor paper using acrylic paint, the STAMPlorations Mixed Media Grunge set, Versafine Clair Pinecone and clear embossing powder
  • distress the edges of one of the STAMPlorations Retro Femme ATCs and add a sentiment from the STAMPlorations Hey Sunshine Clear Sticker set

  • cut out the CUTplorations Butterfly Cover Plate from colored cardstock, ink up the edges with Distress Ink Picked Raspberry and add splatters with watered-down white acrylic paint
  • stamp the sentiment from the STAMPlorations So loved set with Versafine Clair Nocturne
  • round two corners of one of the STAMPlorations Color Me Spring ATCs and adhere it to the background

  • create a background on a piece of watercolor paper using Distress Oxide Ink (Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, Forest Moss) and one of the CUTplorations Lacy Edges and Borders 
  • adhere one of the STAMPlorations Whimsical Houses ATC to a piece of dotted cardstock
  • stamp the sentiment from the STAMPlorations Subway Art Builder Create with Versafine Clair Portobello

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,
