Bunny Tag

Hi there,

I created this sweet Bunny Tag for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

• cut out one of the Karten-Kunst Tags from smooth white cardstock
• stamp the adorable little bunny and the sentiment from the Karten-Kunst Post vom Osterhasen set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black
• color the image with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• add a little border cut from patterned paper with the help of a die from the Karten-Kunst DIN A6 Card Designer Nr. 2 set
• thread two strands of twine through the hole of the tag

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,

Deck of Cards - Set 3

Hi there,

over the next few weeks I would like to show you a project that I created for Mennys Bastelshop together with my so very talented daughter Emily. It was a gift for my son - a deck of cards. I used the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Card die set on each of them combined with different stamp sets from Mama Elephant, My Favorite Things and Lawn Fawn. Every week I will show you four cards. Let's continue.

• cut out the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Cards from smooth white cardstock
• add color with Distress Oxide Inks
• stamp images from the Mama Elephant Magical Wizards, the Lawn Fawn Super Star and the Lawn Fawn Upon a Star sets
• color the images with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• assemble the cards

I hope you got inspired.

Have a wonderful day.

Hi there,

it is time for our monthly Anything Goes Challenge over on the STAMPlorations Blog and this is my creation:

• cut out one of the CUTplorations Stitched Tags from watercolor paper
• glue on a picture of mountains and trees with multi medium
• add some white gesso to let the picture appear to be more in the background
• apply some texture paste through the ARTplorations Flair slimline stencil
• add some color using a brown and turquoise Stabilo Woody and Ecoline Liquid Watercolor in gold
• apply brown Stabilo All pencil at the edges of the tag
• alter some corrugated cardboard with the same colors and dye a piece of cheesecloth with Distress Ink Ground Espresso
• stamp the sentiment from the STAMPlorations Softly set with Versamark and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
• ink up the edges of the sentiment strip with that same brown Distress Ink used to dye the cheesecloth
• thread torn Sari Silk Ribbon through the hole of the tag

I hope you got inspired.

Hi there,

• stamp one of the capybaras and the cake from the Lawn Fawn Capybaras! set with Gina G. Designs Obsidian
• color the image with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• add a striped background made from colored cardstock underneath
• stamp some confetti from the same set with Distress Oxide Ink (Scroched Timber, Antique Linen, Tumbled Glass)
• thread two strands of twine through the hole of the tag

I hope you got inspired.
