Bunny Love

Image
Today's project is a card featuring Time for Tea Designs. I started this make by stamping the cute little bunnies from the  Cosy Winter  stamp set with Versa-fine Onyx Black ink as I planned to colour these with Distress inks. I used Pumice Stone and Tumbled Glass on the darker bunny and Antique Linen and Picked Raspberry on the lighter one, with a little Picked Raspberry for both of their ears. I also coloured a piece of card with the Picked Raspberry to use later and set these aside to dry whilst I made the background. To create the dotty look I used a stencil that came with Crafters Companion monthly box kit  #14 and my Make Art Satytion . I ink blended Picked Raspberry, Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon. I next die cut a stitched circle from white card using the Circle of Love  die set from T4TD and added a little Pumice Stone Distress Ink to create some ground for the bunnies to sit on. Then remember the piece of Picked Raspberry that I said I coloured, I used the Love sent

 Today I am sharing with you this card using Time for Tea Designs. I have used the  Pawsome Pets  digital stamp for the cute kitty and the dog and the  Smitten Kitten  add on digital stamp for the box of chocolates, the envelope and the bow in the kitty's fur.  After I had printed them out using some Crafters Companion printable light card I used my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers to colour them. I used the Muted Brown blend for the dog, with some True Blue blend for the collar and Ice Grey blend for the kitty and the envelope, Antique Pink blend for the box of chocolates and the heart on the envelope and then Pale Pink blend for the bow, I used my Sakura Gelly roll white pen to add highlights to all my images and then i fussy cut them and put them to one side whilst I worked on my background. I die cut a frame from my stash and then using the  Pawsome Pattern stencil  from T4TD and my Make Art Staytion I blended Distress Ink in Spun Sugar all over and then gently applied a little P

 Todays card features products from Heffy Doodle. This card uses the  Hootiful  clear stamp set from Heffy Doodle.  I started by stamping the owls, branches, and tree stump images with Memento Tuxedo black ink as I wanted to use my Tri Blend Alcohol markers by Spectrum Noir to colour them but I stamped the moon with Versa-fine Onyx Black as I planned to colour this with my Cosmic Shimmer Iridescent watercolour paints. I used Snow Angel from set 7, Christmas which you can find  here . Next I move on to colouring my images and I used the following colours:  Unfortunately I do not yet own the coordinating dies to this stamp set so I had to fussy cut them out after this I placed them to one side and moved on to creating my background. I used the outer frame from Heffy Doodle's  Clover Frame Dies  to die cut myself an A2 panel to create my background on. I used the Distress Inks shown on the top line below (Scattered Straw, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot) to try to create a light night

 Today's card features Time for Tea Designs products. To start with I took a 6 x 6 inch card blank and then using my nesting square dies, I cut a piece of red glitter cardstock from the Works, to make a layer. I next took another of the square dies and die cut a white layer, which I stenciled with the T4TD Starry Heart 6x6 stencil using Festive Berries Distress Ink and then placed to one side to dry. I then moved onto stamping the owl, branch and sentiment from T4TD Be Owlsome stamp set. I used Memento Tuxedo Black as I wanted to use my Tri Blend Alcohol Markers from Spectrum Noir. I used the following pens: Ice Grey (IG2, IG4 & IG5) Ice Grey Shades (IG8) Earth Brown (EB3 & EB2) Alpine Green ( AG1 & AG3) Dark Red Blend (DR1, DR3 & DR4) Coral Blend (CR3 & CR5) & Magenta Blend (MG2 & MG3). I used the coordinating dies to die cut the owl and the branch and then added some white Gelly roll pen to add highlights and I created a frame around the sentiment with

 Today I want to share with you this card that I recently made using Time for Tea Designs Pandamodium Party... This is a design that I saw Sam Calcott make and if you would like to try one for yourself then  Click here . I started by taking a piece of patterned paper in this case I used polka dot cardstock from my stash and cut it down to 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch's. Then i flipped it over and marked out 1" and 1 1/2" from both sides top and bottom and joined then up. Next I rotated the \piece and marked out 1" from both sides and joined these up also. Now the fun part make a note of the top and then using a sharp blade cut :0 and I have included this next image to try and help visually describe how! I also followed Sam's tutorial and added to the image where the glue will be added later! Where the cut is, we now need to score a burnish, at 1", 2 1/2" and 4" from the bottom up... Next I took a piece of white cardstock 5 3/4 x 5 3/4 inch's and using th
