#cardsforukraine: Peace

 Hello,

Paper crafters on Instagram and FaceBook are posting cards to show "light, love, encouragement" and support for the people of Ukraine in their time of darkness. Cards in blue and yellow, and/or with sunflowers as the focal images are being made. Such a great idea, and something that I'm totally behind. You can check out the IG gallery here.

I've used products from Avery Elle, Pink Fresh Studio, Concord & 9th and Gina K Designs to make my card to participate. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the Ukrainian people.

Thanks, and be safe,

Colleen

You've Been On My Mind

 Hi all,

Today I have the great pleasure of guest designing for the newest As You See It Challenge. Challenge number 269 is a recipe challenge. The ingredients are embossing, pastel colors, twine or ribbon, die cut or punch, and "thinking of you" type sentiment.

I had tons of fun using all of these ingredients. To make this card, I've used a Stampin' Up embossing folder, linen thread, Pink Fresh Studio stamps and dies, a Reverse Confetti sentiment, and Gina K Designs inks in pastel colors.

The background was made by inking up one side of the Tasteful Textile embossing folder with GKD ink cubes in three colors, then spritzing it with a little water before placing the card stock in and running it through my machine. This background is layered onto a white card base. The lattice is cut from the PFS Diamond cover plate die. I cut three of these and glued them together for dimension. The flowers are from the PFS stamp, die and stencil set called Beautiful Blossoms. They are stamped in black ink and I used blending brushes and the layering stencils to color the flowers and leaves. After cutting them out with the set dies, they are glued onto the lattice with liquid glue, and the middle flower is popped up with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Reverse Confetti Butterfly Wreath stamp set on kraft card stock and cut it out with a die from the GKD Master Layouts 2 die set then glued it across the bottom with liquid glue. The small butterfly is also from the same Reverse Confetti set and I used a light pink Copic marker to color it. For the ribbon or twine ingredient, I just tied a very small bow with SU linen thread and used a glue dot to adhere it to the sentiment strip.

Here is the inside of my card. This is a PFS stamp set called Hugs and Good Vibes. I thought it worked well with a "thinking of you" theme. I used ink cubes to get the different colors over the large stamp. These are the same colors I used to ink up the embossing folder for the background. The stamped panel and the kraft mat are cut with the Gina K Designs Master Layouts 1 die set.

I hope you join in the fun. I can't wait to see how everyone uses the ingredients for this fun challenge. Thanks to the Design Team for inviting me to play along as a guest designer.

A Good Friend Is Like A Four Leaf Clover. . .

 Hello,

As it's Friday tomorrow, I thought I better get my card for this week's Paper Players Challenge posted. Ann's challenge is this month's clean and simple challenge with a theme of Wild About Wild Life. Now, I have many, many stamps that work for wildlife, and I kind of had a difficult time deciding what I wanted to use. I ended up making two cards. The little mouse is from Colorado Craft Co and the Panda and her baby is an old wood mounted stamp that I got in a stamp store in Temecula, CA in 1997!

After stamping and coloring the mouse and clover images, I cut them out with their corresponding dies. I used the Pink Fresh Studio Blanket Stitched Rectangle die on the front of the card base, then glued the die cut images onto it and stamped the image. 

The second part of the greeting is on the inside of the card. I added a clover green mat for the blanket stitched rectangle and a few more die cut clovers. All images are from the same CCC stamp set.

As I mentioned, this second card is made with a single large wooden stamp. It's called Mother & Baby Panda and the manufacturer is Diamonds. The wood mount is very pretty, instead of a printed plastic label with the image, the image is actually carved into the wood and dyed. I inked up the image with black onyx ink making sure the ink was dark and coverage very even before stamping onto the card base. No way to do re-stamping if the image didn't stamp correctly. I actually stamped the image twice so I could cut out the leaves and glue them on top of the card images for just a little dimension. I used liquid glue, so they are still flat, I just off-set them slightly. The bamboo images are colored with Copic markers. Other than the extra leaves, this is a one layer card.

The sentiment is from the Stampin' Up set called Honeybee Home. I didn't take a picture of the inside. The greeting says Big Congratulations and is from the SU set called Special Moments from the current Sale-a-bration promotion.

Have a great Friday and weekend, and thanks for looking in,

Colleen

Just A Note

 Hello,

I love the colors of pink and navy together, the current Color Hues challenge, so I wanted to be sure to play along. Lots of options I thought of to make my card. I decided on geometric and flowers.

All stamped images are from Pink Fresh Studio. This flower stamp set has layering stencils to color them, and dies to cut them out. 

My card is a mini slimline style.

Using my Misti, I stamped the background using the PFS Nested Diamond Background stamp, alternating sections using GKD Navy and Dusty Rose inks. Once the background was completed, I cut it out using the stitched die from the GKD Master Layouts 7 dies set. I also cut the mat die from GKD navy card stock.

Next I stamped one of the six flower stamps from the PFS Beautiful Blooms stamp set, four times, using GKD navy ink. I used the layered stencils to color the images with GKD Innocent Pink, Dusty Rose and navy inks using blending brushes. After cutting them out using the set dies, I arranged three of the cutouts over the background. I used the fourth by cutting out two of the flowers and arranging them over the sentiment oval in the center of the card. The sentiment is from the same set as the flowers. Finally, I added pink and crystal gems for embellishments.

I kept the inside very simple, using a sentiment from another Pink Fresh Studio stamp set and cutting the panels with the GKD Master Layouts 7 dies.

Thanks for stopping by my blog,

Colleen

Hello My Friend

Hi Peeps,

It's been another fairly quiet day for me today. I've been making random cards using the products from my February Scrapbook & Cards Today monthly pack. So far, I've gotten eight cards made and I still have more papers and embellishments to use. I'm having fun not using any sketch challenges, just seeing how creative I can be. I'll post some of them later in the week.

For this post, I have a card for the current As You See It challenge. The challenge is to use our favorite technique. Lately, I've been loving ink blending, either with or without stencils. I've used a stencil and three shades of green ink to make the background on this mini slimline card. 

The stamp set is from the current SU Mini Catalog called Hello Ladybug. I stamped both of the ladies and used the corresponding punch to punch one and fussy cut the other, as well as the three large leaves and three small flowers. (Too bad there are no dies for these!) The stencil is from Pretty Pink Posh. It's a rather delicate stencil, so I used pixie spray to adhere it to my paper before using the blending brush. I usually don't use any adhesive on the stencils, but because of the very thin lines on this one, I thought it would be easier to control. I used the GKD Master Layouts 7 die set, to cut the stenciled panel, the black mat and the sentiment circles. After arranging my layout and gluing everything in place, I added the three black enamel dots to the flower centers, matching the black dots in the ladybugs.

I hope everyone has had a relaxing weekend. We are actually expecting rainy weather here in SoCal the next couple of days. We started with a bright warm sunny day today, but now it's cloudy and windy, so I guess the weather folks are right.

Happy crafting,

Colleen

Wishing You Happy Birthday

 Happy Saturday to all,

It's been a very quiet day for me. I did some cooking, some cleaning, and then reading for most of the afternoon. Very relaxing. After finishing the book I've been reading, I took pictures of a couple of cards so that I could get them posted.

This card I made for this week's Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. I used one of my current favorite techniques, ink blending.

I thought this stamp set from GKD with the three flowers on a vine worked well for Jen's sketch of three elements up the side of a panel. For the top panel, I blended GKD inks in Coral Reef, Sweet Mango and Peach Bellini from bottom to top. After letting the blended inks dry, I put the panel in my Misti and stamped the images using Black amalgam ink, stamping a few times to achieve a nice dark silhouette image. This is layered onto a panel cut with the GKD Basket Weave cover die in white, and that is layered over Coral Reef card stock. For the sentiment, I used pre-printed GKD sentiment strips cut with a GKD sentiment strip die. The three hexagon black enamel dots are from Stampin' Up, and I like the hexagons geometry paired with the Basket Weave panel.  I'd call this card clean and layered.

Thanks for looking in,

Colleen

Birthday Wishes

Hi all,

Well, we've gone from 80+ degrees here on the San Diego coast to rainy and much more seasonal and cooler temps. I went to run some errands yesterday afternoon and when I left my house, it was 81 degrees and sunny. When I returned an hour later, the fog had rolled in to where we couldn't see out back fence and the temp was 61. I know that's not cold, but it's a pretty dramatic temp drop in just an hour. This morning it's currently 55 and drizzling. 

After my errands, I decided crafting was the best way to spend the rest of the afternoon, and I wanted to get my card made for LeAnne's Paper Players Color Challenge. She has chosen Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaroon and So Saffron for the monthly color challenge. The colors compliment each other pretty well, and I made two birthday cards for my stash.

As I mentioned in my last post, I seem to be doing a lot of ink blending lately, and I used it on this first card. I started by cutting a mini slimline panel from SU bright white card stock using the GKD Master Layouts 7 die set and ink blended the three colors using the SU ink pads and blending brushes. Next I pulled out a fairly old SU stamp set called Inspired By Nature and stamped part of the large flower stamp with black ink over the blended panel. I have removed all of my old SU wood mounted stamps from the wood blocks, which allows me to use the Misti stamping tool and get a nice dark image by repeat stamping.

The sentiment die cuts on the bottom of the card are also from the GKD Master Layouts 7 die set, and the greeting is from the GKD mini stamp set called Bitty Blossoms. The butterfly I pulled from my box of unused die cuts. It's from Pink Fresh Studio and is hot foiled with gold foil. I used small blending brushes to add the colors. Embellishments include Mermaid Tail mini sequins from GKD and a Baker's Twine bow.

For the inside, I colored directly on the small flower on the stamp with the SU markers and added a greeting form the SU Dragon Fly Garden stamp set.

The second card uses the SU Color and Contour stamps & die bundle. I stamped the large single flower line stamp in the set randomly around  a panel of SU Bright white card stock, then used the solid stamp to fill in the color, but "stamping off" to get a lighter shade of Bermuda Bay.  I used the small bkg dots image to stamp between the flowers with Mint Macaroon, then cut the panel with the Scalloped Border die from the set bundle, and used a blending brush to blend Mint Macaroon ink around the edges. The front of the card base is embossed using the SU Basket Weave EF. I cut some additional rectangles from white and So Saffron card stock, stamped the flower image from the stamp set and cut it out with it's corresponding die and layered it all onto the card. I added three small crystal gems around the flower image for a little sparkle. The greeting is a pre-printed sentiment strip from GKD. I cut it using one of the GKD flag dies from ML 4.

The inside greeting is from the SU In Bloom stamp set.

It's good to have more birthday cards ready to go. 

Enjoy the rest of your day, and thanks for looking in.

Our Friendship Is Magic

 Hello,

I hope all are well and having a good weekend. I'm sure many are gearing up for the big game today. I'm not much of a football fan, but we are heading over to a friend's house to watch. It will just be their family and us, so not really a party. I know there will be good food.

Today, I have my card for this week's Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. I seem to be into ink blending these days, whether using stencils or blending colors for backgrounds. For this card, I channeled laurafadora. Rainbows!

I started be tearing some Masking Magic and laying it down onto my card base with a sufficient space to accomodate the flower stamps I planned to use for the silhouette stamping. Using blending brushes and GKD inks, I blended the rainbow. I removed the masking papers, and cut the postage stamp die from the center, then put the masking paper back in place and stamped the flowers across the rest of the rainbow. This panel is layered onto a black card base. After stamping the greeting on the die cut postage stamp, I popped it up in it's original place using foam squares.

To color the flower, I used the corners of GKD ink cubes so I could ink each petal in a different color, going around in rainbow order.  This is also popped up with foam squares and I added a black enamel dot to the center of the flower.

Here's a look at the inside of this card. Keeping with the rainbow theme, I colored the petals with Copics. I masked the flower and stamped the leaves so the green is in it's rainbow order.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and thanks for looking in,

Colleen

Best Friends Forever - Valentine's Day Cards

 Hello,

Happy Wednesday afternoon. I hope the day is going well for you. It's a beautiful clear and warm day in Southern California. The weather app on my phone is reading 77 degrees on the San Diego coast. I made a run to the post office to mail Valentine's Day cards to family and friends, then washed my car and when I finished with that, had lunch. 

Speaking of Valentine's Day cards, I mailed some of these today. This is a small group featuring the Taylored Expressions Gus & Gertie stamp sets and dies. Could there be any cuter BFsF?! These cards also fit Laurie's theme for this week's Paper Players Challenge.

Here is a picture of the group.

For my Paper Players Challenge card, I'm using the Ride or Die card. The perfect sentiment for Laurie's Friendship challenge. This is a 4.25 x 4.25 inch square note card. I stenciled a cloudy sky background using the SSS cloud stencil and a blending brush. Next, I stamped the red heart flowers from a long retired SU set along the bottom, then glued a piece of black card stock along the bottom. I cut it all out using the stitched square die from the GKD ML 3 dies set, and cut the mat from more black card stock. Using a white gel pen, I drew the lines for the bike path. Gus & Gertie are colored with Copics and cut out with the set die. I cut 3 extra die-cuts to stack behind the colored one for some dimension without using foam tape.

These next two cards I sent to two sweet little boys, one my new great nephew who was born just after Thanksgiving, and the other to a friends little boy, who is two. I made each of them a banner using the Mama Elephant Favor Bag Dog Dies. 

This one goes to my great nephew. I did an emboss resist using the stars in the background by first blending yellow ink, then using a sponge dauber with VersaMark and heat embossing with clear EP. The rest of the background is ink blended using lavender and blue shades. I replaced the stars in the die with hearts cut from holographic card stock. This is also a 4.25 x 4.25 inch square card. 

This one goes to the two year old. I used a TE heard background stamp with VersaMark and heat embossed it with clear EP, then blended very light shades of pool and mint inks over it. The white fence and border of flowers are old TE dies.

These are the banners that I made for the kid's rooms. They are made with felt and hot glue. They are basically the same, just different colors and ribbon.

The final card is a mini-slimline style. I used a wave cover plate die to cut masking paper, put that down on white card stock and ink blended many shades of blue ink. The top sun is a stencil from GKD. I added a few clear sequins randomly around the card front. 

I just got the February SCT Sampler package today, so I'm going to see what's there. Maybe make something. Thanks for checking in. Hope you don't mind such a long post.

XOXO in Black and Red

 Hi again,

I have a second post for today with the card that I made for the new Red & Black Color Hues Challenge. This turned out to be somewhat of a graphic design, which isn't my usual style, but I like this one. It will make a good masculine VD card.

The stamp with all those mini XOs is from an older Stampin' Up set called, appropriately, XOXO. It is stamped in GKD Red Velvet ink on GKD white card stock. The panel is cut out with the GKD Master Layouts 1 die set, and I used the mat die for the black mat panel. The large heart die is from SSS. My amateur photography doesn't show the flower embossing in the die. The large XOXO die is cut from Red Velvet card stock three times, then glued together for a little dimension. Instead of having it hang off the edges of the heart, I curved it just a little to fit on the heart. 

On the inside, I used one of the two sentiments from the SU set, and cut it with a small SU heart die, then layered it onto another SU scalloped heart die.

Thanks for looking in, 

Colleen

You're the Cat's Pajamas

 TGIF Peeps,

For some reason, since I retired a few months ago, Friday's seem to come much sooner than they did while I was working. Funny how that happens!

I hope you are having a good day, and if you are in the snow and ice zones, staying safe and warm.

When I saw the new Retro Rubber Challenge, I knew just what stamp I wanted to use for my card. This is one of my favorite Valentine's Day stamps. It is an old wooden block stamp from Uptown Rubber stamps, and the price tag is from a store in Las Vegas called Stamp Oasis. LV used to be part of my territory in the early 90s, so I probably got it sometime between 1991 and 1995. It is alway on the top in my "other holidays" drawer of wooden stamps. (The main holiday drawer is Christmas stamps.) I rarely go to my wooden stamps, but once in a while it happens, and I know just where to find this little cutie, LOL. (Don't you suspect she's off to bed to read her romance book?)

The image is colored with Copics and I used a Uniball Gold gel pen to color in the hearts in her pajamas. I used the oval and oval mat dies from the GKD Master Layouts 1 die set to cut it out. For the background, I used the SU plaid EF and using a brayer, added pink ink to one side of the folder, placed the paper in and ran it through my die cutting machine. I then used the scalloped die from the GKD ML 4 die set to cut that out. I found some Baker's twine with gold in my stash and added it under the popped up ovals and tied a bow to the side.

For the inside, I used a pretty old SU Valentine's Day set Called Meant To Be. I cut this panel out with the stitched die from the GKD ML 2 die set. 

.

So, while I was looking through my older SU Valentine's Day sets, I found a few more that I decided to pull out and use. I was looking for something for my mom's card. I found the Take It To Heart set and decided to make something fairly simple. This is made with Vanilla card stock and stamped in GKD Kraft ink, which is Copic friendly. The images are colored with pastel Copic shades.

I stamped the banner first, made a mask, then stamped the larger heart image. The panel and mat are cut with, you guessed it, the GKD ML 1 dies. Honestly, I use these ML die sets ALL THE TIME! It makes the layering so easy, and perfect. The mat is GKD Kraft card stock and the base is one of the light SU pink shades, Powder Pink. I used some pink and clear glass beads for embellishments.  This would work for the Retro Rubber challenge as well, but I just love that cat in her pajamas!

Have a great Friday afternoon, and weekend to come.

Colleen

Hello Friend

 Happy Hump Day all,

I hope you're having a good Wednesday. I made this card for the current As You See It Challenge a few days ago, but forgot to post it. The current challenge is a color challenge and I thought the lighter shades would work well in a silhouette stamping technique, and I also wanted to try this SU fern stamp set for the stamping part. I think both worked just fine.

I used a die from the GKD Master Layouts 9 set, which was designed to use for masking all kinds of shapes. Gina included this window die in the set. I put down the mask and using blending brushes, I blended inks of each color into a window starting from the inside corner, getting lighter going to the outside of the windows. Then using black ink, I stamped some of the stamp set images into each window. When the mask is removed, this is what it looks like. I cut the whole panel using the GKD Master Layouts 2 set, including the black mat. The card base is Calypso Coral, one of the challenge colors.

For the sentiment, the hello is from the stamp set and the Friend die is from the GKD Master Layout 9 die set. For a little embellishments, I used some enamel dots from Concord & 9th that match the Calypso Coral shade pretty perfectly.

The inside greeting and stamped images are from the SU stamp set.

I had an eye doctor appointment this morning. It's been a few years since I've been. I knew something not good was up with my vision, and I was right. My right eye is completely cloudy due to cataracts. In fact, the Dr. said she would say I have mono-vision currently. Luckily it's a relatively easy fix. I have a consult with a surgeon next Thursday. Guess I'm at that age!

Thanks for looking in,
