Lotus

 

Hello Everyone! 

It's Ceal, here.  Today I am sharing this card using the new Lotus stamp set, Y'all  it is so pretty when it's colored up.

For this background I used the Pondie stencil and Trinity Teal Atelier ink blended with brushes starting darker at the bottom and fading as I went up. 

To finish the card I removed the mask and added a sentiment from the same set that I heat embossed using our Juicy Clear embossing pad and some Arctic White embossing powder on a black strip.

Hugs, Kisses and Unicorn Wishes

 

Hey everybody! 

It's Ceal here to share a card with you today. I have been busy making Christmas cards and then I had someone order a birthday card with an unicorn so I immediately knew what set I was going to use.  

I started with a white top folding card base and a white panel cut to the same size. I stamped the unicorn from the set Magical Unicorn and colored it using Copic markers. I added some shimmer with Liquid Pixie Dust and added shine to her horn with glossy accents. 

Since I have been working on Christmas cards, I was thinking I may try coloring her in Christas colors. If I do, I will come back and show you. 

Faux Etch Art

Remember the art you can buy where it's completely black and you scratch off the black to reveal a beautiful picture and then there are other where it is back felt and you color it by Lisa Frank? This technique I used on my card totally reminds me of those art pieces. 

To create this card I started with a white card base, a black panel and a white panel. I stamped the Dogwood Flower and colored it using Copic markers, after I got it all colored I drew a frame around it and then colored it in with a black Copic marker. 

I added some Liquid Pixie Dust to give the flowers that sparkle and some glossy accents to the stem of the flower as well. I also added white gel pen to the centers 

I love how it turned out and it totally reminds me of those scratch off art pieces I had as a child 

 

Just keep Swimming

Hello Everyone!

It's Ceal here to share with you today a card using one of our newest sets, Koi Pond. This set is so fun! 

To create my card I started with a white top folding card base and a panel of bristol card stock which is water friendly paper. I stamped the Koi using the Juicy Clear Embossing ink and embossed it with Gold Rush embossing powder. I watercolored them using the Karin markers and masked them off to create the background. To do that I used the new Wavy stencil and bending brushes, I also did a little ink smooshing to add some texture to it. 

Here's a little close up (above) that shows the shine of the Gold Rush embossing powder, it's my favorite!

To finish the card I added the "Just Keep Swimming" sentiment because that is what we are all having to do during this pandemic

I randomly stamped the blooms using Fadeout noline coloring ink to cover the watercolor panel. I used the Atelier inks to watercolor the blooms. There are so many colors you can make by mixing the inks.

 To finish the card I added the sentiment from the Bunny Hugs set and the hugs die from the coordinating die set. 

After I was done stamping I used the Ink Off pad and cloth to clean and condition my stamps.
