I ruff you!

Written by Kelli Cortes. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hi, everyone!  Kelli here today with a love card to share with you.  The dog and bowl are from the Tiddly Inks – Ricky Hanging Around stamp set.  I stamped them both in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press It – Blending Paper and colored them with Copics:
E59, E57, E55
BG07, BG05, BG02
RV29, RV25, RV23
Y35, Y11
YR18, YR14, YR12
C7, C5, C3
W3, W2, W1

The multicolored background was made using a variety of Tim Holtz – Mini Distress Ink colors.  I took the Ranger – 1″ Round Ink Blending Tool and dabbed it into color and then made random circles onto a sheet of Tim Holtz – Watercolor Paper.  After all the ink was on the paper I sprayed it with water using the Ranger – Mini Mister.  This helped soften the harsh edges and blend the colors a little bit.  To help mute the bright colors I covered it with a piece of vellum.

The sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn – Critters at the Dog Park stamp set.

The card base is the Lawn Fawn – Walnut Woodgrain Note Card.  Everything was adhered using the Crafter’s Companion – Adhesive Runner and dimensional foam adhesive.

I added a bow with some Sun Kissed Baker’s Twine and added a variety of Pretty Pink Posh Sequins in colors: Pumpkin 6mm, Lemon Drop 6mm, Pink from the Sweetheart 6mm Mix, Amethyst 4mm, and Clear 4mm.

To finish everything off I added some Wink of Stella Glitter Pen in Clear to the hearts, bone, and the dog’s collar.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!  🙂

Spooky Cuteness with Lawn Fawn

Written by Valerie Ward. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hi MarkerPop fans! It’s Valerie here today 🙂 

It’s time for some more Halloween Fun today, and since I don’t have the newest Lawn Fawn Halloween goodies yet, I decided to go a little spookier with some prior years’ Lawn Fawn Halloween stamp sets!

For today’s project, I pulled out these 2 always-great stamp sets: Happy Haunting and Critters in Costume.

Lawn Fawn

I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, and colored them with Copic Sketch Markers:

  • House siding: BV23, BV25, B29
  • Roofs: E44, E47, E49
  • Deck: E74
  • Windows: Y35
  • Door: C7
  • Chimney: N4, N6, N8
  • Cat: C6, C7, C9
  • Nose: R22
  • Hat: BV02, BV04, BV08  / C6, C7, C9

Lawn Fawn

I used 2 die sets: Lawn Fawn Stitched Journaling Card & Mama Elephant Creative Cuts Basic Set. The adorable pattern papers are from Doodlebug.

The sequins are Pretty Pink Posh’s Solid Cupped 4mm Sparkling Clear & Solid Cupped 4mm Amethyst. The cat and the yellow windows are painted with a Clear Zig Wink of Stella Brush Glitter Pen. The twine is Baker’s Twine – Purple Crush.

The white card base is a piece of Bazzill White Classic Smooth Cardstock. I adhered everything down with my Crafter’s Companion tape runner.

Happy Crafting!

Wishing you sunshine and rainbows!

Hi, everyone!  Kelli here with an uplifting card to share with you today!  As you probably already know, I love bright colors and lots of sparkle so I couldn’t wait to play with the rainbow stamp from the Paper Smooches – Spectrum stamp set.

I stamped the rainbow in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press It Blending Paper and colored it with Copics:
R29, R27, R24, R22
YR18, YR15, YR14, YR12
Y35, Y15, Y13, Y11
YG09, YG07, YG05, YG03
B05, B04, B02, B01
V17, V15, V12, V01
B000, B0000 for the clouds

I stamped the sun with yellow ink onto some patterned paper from the Lawn Fawn – Hello Sunshine 6×6 paper pad.  I cut the sun and rainbow out using the Paper Smooches – Spectrum die set.

The patterned paper with the clouds on it is from the same Hello Sunshine paper pad.  I wanted to tone down the pattern a bit so I layered a piece of vellum over the top.  It’s easy to adhere vellum when you have lots of little items on top because you can hide the adhesive behind them.

I stamped the sentiment from the Spectrum stamp set onto a piece of patterned paper from the Hello Sunshine paper pad and tied a little bow using some Purple Crush baker’s twine.

The card base is from the Lawn Fawn – Sunflower notecard set.  I love these little pre-made card bases.  I still need to get my hands on some more colors!  There are also matching envelopes that fit these notecards perfectly!

I adhered all the layers with the Crafter’s Companion – Adhesive Runner and some foam dimensional adhesive.

I added sequins from the Pretty Pink Posh – Sweetheart Mix, Lemon Drop, and Clear 4mm packs.  The couple bigger sequins are from the Lawn Fawn – Hello Sunshine pack.

To finish everything off I added some Wink of Stella Glitter Pen in Clear over the entire rainbow and then some Glossy Accents to the clouds.  The picture at the very end shows all the fun sparkle and shine!

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!  🙂

Happy Father’s Day from Daughter (A Little Late)

Written by Kelli Cortes. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hi everyone, Kelli here!  Today I have another Father’s Day card to share with you, just a little late!  You could easily change out the sentiment and make this card for any occasion though!  I always like to make my dad two cards for Father’s Day.  One from me and my husband and one that is just from me.  I showed a robot card last week that was going to be from both of us and the one I want to share today is the one I made from just me.  I don’t mind giving my dad somewhat girly cards and I don’t worry much about the use of pinks or glitter because after all, it’s from his daughter!  Haha.

I am seeing so much more watercoloring lately so I have been having lots of fun playing around with my Distress Markers.  The main image is the C.C. Designs – Pollycraft Breeze and is stamped onto Ranger – Watercolor Paper  and watercolored with Tim Holtz – Distress Markers in colors:
Skin – Tattered Rose, Vintage Photo, Spun Sugar (Cheeks)
Hair – Gathered Twigs, Brushed Corduroy, Wild Honey
Dress – Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Dusty Concord, Shaded Lilac, Mustard Seed
Shoes – Black Soot
Dog – Vintage Photo, Brushed Corduroy
Kite – Dusty Concord, Shaded Lilac, Wild Honey, Mustard Seed
Grass – Peeled Paint, Shabby Shutters
Sky – Tumbled Glass
Speech Bubble – Peacock Feathers, Wild Honey

Instead of coloring directly onto the paper with the markers, I colored onto an acrylic block and then picked the color up from the block with my brush.  This helps to blend the colors better, make them a little lighter, and not get harsh lines where the marker was laid down.

I have to say that trying out watercoloring after being a Copic markers user is hard!  Everything is so neat and crisp with alcohol based markers and with watercolors you just have to let go and let it be a little messy.  I am having more and more fun with this because it doesn’t have to be perfect!

The card base is from the precut Lawn Fawn – Sunflower Polka Dot Notecards pack.  I also got the matching Lawn Fawn –  Envelopes because they fit perfectly!

The teal patterned paper is from the Doodlebug – Kraft in Color (Color) 6×6 Paper Pad.  I added some Sunkissed Twine to the left side of the image.

The speech bubble is from the Lawn Fawn – A Birdie Told Me stamp set and then cut out using the matching A Birdie Told Me die set.  The sentiment inside the bubble is just a stamp from my stash.  The ‘DAD’ on the bottom right of the image was stamped from the Lawn Fawn – Milo’s ABCs stamp set.

Everything was adhered using the Crafter’s Companion – Adhesive Runner and dimensional foam adhesive.

To finish everything off I added some sparkle to the kite from the Wink of Stella – Clear Glitter Pen.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!  🙂
