Good morning, Crafters! It’s Valerie here today, and it’s time for another MarkerPOP! Challenge! The theme is Anything Goes, so I made a Birthday card!

I’m working with the Paper Smooches Birthday Bash stamp set and their Fancy Frames Icon die set for this colorful one!

Yes, the background is the stamped balloons heat embossed with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder, and then lots of Distress Inks (colors shown in supply list below). I did some dabbing of color onto the Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Paper with a paint brush, and I also did some smooshing of the paper into the ink & water on the craft mat. 

The cake is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press IT Blending Card paper, and colored with Copic Sketch markers: Y02, Y06, Y08 / BG01, BG02, BG05 / YG01, YG03, YG25 / BV21, BV23 / YG09

The final touch was painting all the balloons with my Zig Clear Wink of Stella, and then covering them with Glossy Accents.

Good luck to everyone!

Good morning! It’s Valerie today with this cute shaker card!

I have ALWAYS loved the Paper Smooches Woofers and Tweeters stamp set, so when they released this wonderful coordinating sentiment stamp set, Lucky Dog Two, I ordered it right away!

The dog house became a shaker element with the MFT Die-namics Dog House die set and Pretty Pink Posh sequins (shown below in Supply List).

I used 2 Lawn Fawn die sets: Small Stiched Rectangle Stackables and  Small Stitched Oval Stackables. The grass is cut using the Mama Elephant Grassy Trio die set.

The dogs and bird are colored with Copic Sketch markers:

• White dog: T0, T2 / Bow: RV00, RV02
• Black dog: C3, C5, C7
• Bird: Y13, Y15, Y17

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Happy Crafting!

Hello Crafters, Valerie here, and I have a single layer card today for my post, using the Paper Smooches Twiggy Florets stamp set and Distress Ink markers.

I stamped the images with black ink onto watercolor cardstock, and heat embossed over it with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. Then I semi-colored the images with Distress Markers, and used my water brush to move the ink around and color the images.

As a final touch, I painted the images with my Zig Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Pen.

Thank you for stopping by today! Happy Crafting!
