We can't wait for all the crafty fun to come!!! 



Fleurette here, thank you so much for joining us! I had so much fun designing these Big Bold Magnolias and even more fun coloring them and creating this card!!!
To create this card, I started with Blackout Ink which is an amazing ink that I really don't talk about enough. It's really great and different because it dries instantly to the touch, so no more smearing! If your like me, I used to always smudge my cards because, well I never could seem to wait long enough for ink to dry before I would touch it! Now with Blackout I don't have to worry about that :) It's also super black. waterproof, dries permanently on all surfaces and is Copic friendly, Yay!!! I
Using a Misti stamping tool, I stamped all the flowers at once, such a great tool, don't know how we used to stamp without it (LOL) right!
I then colored the flowers with Copic (markers which I have listed below). Once everything was colored, I cut them all out with the Big Bold Magnolias coordinating die cuts, arranged them and attached them to my card base using foam tape to give it some nice dimension. I used the Beautiful die cut from the Heels To You stamps set, I thought it fit perfectly with the Big Bold Magnolias. Then to give it that extra pizzaz I painted on some gorgeous Liquid Pixie Dust, I swear I am totally addicted to the stuff!


Here is a close up showing all the bling from the Liquid Pixie Dust :) 
Copic Markers used, from dark to light
Blues - B18, B06, BG02, B00

Raccoon Hugs - Clean and Simple Watercolor Card


Hi everyone, welcome back to the Ink On 3 blog!  It's Jaycee Gaspar, and today I wanted to share the creative process on this simple scene using the Ink On 3 - Raccoon Hugs Stamp and Die Set.  The goal for this project was to make something super quick and easy, and in my case I used a scrap watercolor panel from a previous project to make this card super simple.  Do you all have a scrap drawer full of small bits of paper?  I feel like if I don't try to use these smaller scraps, then I'm hoarding.  I don't want to admit I have a trash drawer.



This scrap blue ombré watercolor panel was made with Windsor and Newton Payne's Grey (my favorite color by the way).  I watercolored the cute little sleeping raccoon in a mix of black and sepia outlined with Ink On 3 - Blackout Detail Ink.  This ink is great because it's crisp like a pigment ink, but dries super fast like a dye ink and is waterproof--perfect for watercolor projects.  I used the coordinating Ink On 3 - Raccoon Hugs Die Set to cut out the image once dry.  Before assembling the card I used the small heart images in the same stamp set and created "vellum tape" to act like a decorative scotch tape to anchor the watercolor panel on to my ink splattered background.  I used Ink On 3 - Gold Rush Embossing Powder and Juicy Clear Embossing Ink to make this.  I love the script sentiments from the stamp set, but lately I've been OBSESSED with my embossed label maker.  So I thought it was fitting to make my own sentiment and add it to my project.  I added a bundle of black embroidery thread to the back of the raccoon image to break up and balance the hard angles all over the project.



Let me know in the comments below what you think of this very simple scene card.  If you like what you've seen from me, make sure you subscribe to my YouTube channel and give me a follow over on Instagram!  Talk to you all very soon!

Magical Planner Layout by Cheryl


Hi Crafty friends! It's Cheryl with the Inkon3 Design Team here to show you how to make a magical planner layout using the Magic Dragons Stamp set and the Phat Alphanumeric Stamps!



First, I masked my dot-grid planner so that I can stencil in a colorful blue and purple background.



Using a foam blender, I added purple and blue ink to my planner pages. It takes a little bit of effort to build enough coverage so don';t get discouraged if the background doesn't initially look the way you want.


My stencil was a little smaller than my page, so I picked up the stencil and continued to stencil in below the larger block of color. 



Next, I stamped the Magic Dragons and Phat Alphanumeric stamps, using the Blackout Hybrid Detail Ink, onto sticker paper and then fussy cut them. Then I added them onto my planner layout. (Tip: I like to apply the stickers and then color, to be more efficient. I used to stamp and then color, but I often had unused colored images). I accidentally stamped out July for the month! LOL, but thank goodness I use removable sticker paper! :P 



Then I colored in the stamped images using copic markers. I also used a light grey pen to draw a divider for each day of the week. I added some washi tape to the white gap between the stenciled areas too!



I felt like I needed to add something to the bottom right box, so I decided to mask around that box and randomly stamp some of the diamonds, hearts, etc. to make a fun pattern!


Lastly, I used a white gel pen to add a few fun details! I hope you liked my planner pages and that it has inspired you to create a magical planner layout too!



Copic colors used:
Blues: B01, B00, B000, B000
Purples: BV01, BV00, BV000, BV0000
Greys: N1, N0

Magical Unicorn Birthday Card


Hello, again my friends, Ilda here!

Today I am sharing this beautiful Unicorn card featuring the Magical Unicorn set.

CARD DETAILS

I colored in this partial stamp using Zig Clean Brushes, that I had first stamped out using Fadeout Ink for a no-line watercolored look onto Bristol Paper. Then on some areas, I added Liquid Pixie Dust for extra sparkle.

Next, I die cut some clouds and blended out some Broken China lightly to the bottom of them and also blended out Picked Raspberry onto the heart.

For the background, I used a strip of an alcohol rainbow panel that I had previously made and then popped all the elements on to the card front. The sentiments also come from the Magical Unicorn set and were stamped out using Blackout Ink.


Here is how I finished off the inside of this pretty card.



Hope you were inspired by my Magical Unicorn Birthday Card today.

Thank you for stopping by until next time... Happy Crafting!

Coral Wreath Tutorial

Hello everyone! 

Kassi here...

Have you ever had an idea for a card rattling around in your brain for a while before you decide to tackle it? I had this one sitting on the back burner for a while... My original plan was a very complicated one that left me feeling too overwhelmed to tackle... than I realized that if I simplify, not only will it make it more approachable, but it might actually look better... 

Let's take a look at how it ended up coming together...
