Sakura Bloom

Hi there,

I created this pastel flower card for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

• cut out a piece of watercolor paper with the help of a die from the Karten-Kunst Polaroid set
• paint some flowers, details and a background with Distress Paint Milled Lavender and Victorian Velvet
• add some splatters with watered-down Distress Paint Black Soot
• ink up the edges of a cardbase with Distress Ink Victorian Velvet
• stamp the sentiment from the Karten-Kunst Tierische Blumengrüße set with Distress Oxide Ink Victorian Velvet onto a sentiment strip cut out with the help of the Karten-Kunst Polaroid set

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,

Hey Pumpkin!

Hi there,

I created this sweet Artist Trading Card for Mennys Bastelshop using the Mama Elephant Hey Pumpkin stamp set:

• cut out the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Card from smooth white cardstock
• stamp one of the images from the Mama Elephant Hey Pumpkin set with Stellar Ink Black Widow
• color the image and the background with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading and details with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• stamp the little clover from the Mama Elephant Magical Wizards set and color this with Alcohol Markers as well
• stamp the first part of the sentiment with the help of that same black ink and the Mama Elephant Hey Pumpkin set and the second part by using the Clearly Besotted Stamps Tiny Type set

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
