Holiday Floral – Dot.B Stamp

Hello everyone! For today’s project, I would like to share a birthday card I made for a dear friend of mine using the Holiday Floral Digital stamp from DotBstamp Etsy shop. Although it’s a “holiday” image, you could use this image for any occasion depending on how you color and design on the card.

Here’s the card!

 

I started off by downloading and printing the Holiday Floral image on a 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock. I chose the big cluster floral image out of the different images from the set. I colored the image with various Copic Markers and added a bit of details here and there with the Prismacolor color pencils. Copic colors I used are: R29, R24, YR07, YR16, Y17, YR23, G14, G19, and G29. I fussy cut the image and covered the edges with black marker for the finished look.

I stenciled the background panel using the Winnie & Walter’s Pattern of the Rings Stencil and Distress ink pads (Crushed Olive, Pine Needle, and Bundled Sage). For the sentiment, I used Altenew’s Floral Frame stamp set. I adhered the background panel on a white A2 card base and added a white die cut frame (Lawn Fawn’s Stitched Rectangle Frame). I popped up the flower on the card using foam tape and added some Clear Sparkle pen and white gel pen dots to add interest. I dressed up the card with some Clear Dew Drops from The Ton, and the card was complete!

 

That’s all from me today! Thank you for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful day! Happy Crafting!

Ice Winter – Dot.B Stamp

Hello everyone! Hope your week is going well so far! I have another Eunji’s DotBstamp Etsy shop guest post to share with you! For today’s project, I used an adorable set called “Ice Winter.”

 

Here is the card I made!

I started off by printing the Ice Winter images on a Bristol Smooth cardstock. I colored the images (I used 3 images from the set) with Peerless Watercolors and added some details with white gel pen. The colors I used are: Bismark Brown, Warm Sepia, Ecru, Turquoise Blue, Forget Me Not Blue, Marigold Yellow, Chrome Orange, Blood Red, Scarlet Red, Alizarine Red, Lip Smackin’ Pink, Bubble Gum, and Amethyst.  I fussy cut the images put it aside.

I die cut a Bristol Smooth cardstock first with the largest die from The Ton’s Small Double Stitched Rectangle Dies and the SSS’s Birch Tree Window Die next. I ink blended Salty Ocean and Chipped Sapphire Distress ink around the top edges. I created a snowy scene with the water droplets and white dots. I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiment (from Hero Arts’ Winter Time Fun), cut it down to a banner, and adhered it on the panel.  I added double layer of foam tape on the back of the panel to create the shaker window.

On a top folding A2 black card base, I adhered silver glitter cardstock. Then, I added some Iridescent sequins from Darice and Diamond Dust and sealed it with the shaker window. I adhered the colored images on the card and added iridescent sequins to complete the card!

That’s all from me today! Hope you enjoyed the card and thank you for stopping by!

Happy Crafting!

For this month’s challenge, I created a dancing ballerina scene, combining Holiday Ballet Stamp set + Coordinating Dies, Cozy Poinsettia stamp set + Coordinating Dies, Scenes: Fireplace Cling stamp for the background and the Banners-Holiday Add on mini stamp set for the sentiment.

Here’s the card!

To start off, I stamped the ballerina image from the Holiday Ballet stamp set on a Bristol Smooth cardstock in our Noir Dye ink and I colored with the Zig markers. The colors I used are: Light Gray, Flesh Colour, Pale Pink, Light Pink, Mid Brown, and Oatmeal. Then, I cut it out with the Coordinating die and added some highlights with a gold gel pen.

Next, I stamped the Cozy Poinsettia image on a Bristol Smooth cardstock in Versamark ink and heat embossed in gold. I colored the image with various green and red Stabilo68 pens and added bit of details with the Polychromos pencils. I die cut the image out with the Coordinating dies.

Then I moved on to the background. I masked off the top half of the Scenes: Fire Place Rubber Cling stamp and stamped the image on a smooth white cardstock in Copic-safe Caviar Hybrid ink. I colored in using the Copic Markers (E57, E55, and E53). I also splattered some gold ink on top portion of the panel.

On a white A2 top folding card base, I adhered strips of the Glossy Fine Gold Glitter Adhesive paper around the edges and adhered the background panel. I also popped up  the poinsettia image with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Banner-Holiday Add On mini stamp set on a red cardstock in Versamark and heat embossed in gold. I cut it down to a thin banner and adhered it on the card. I dressed up with some Medallion Gold Sequins and Deck the Halls Couture Mix and the card was complete!

I hope you enjoyed today’s project and that I was able to inspire you to join our challenge this month! Please visit The Ton’s Challenge Blog for more info.
