Birthday Bear Hugs!

Written by Holly Endress. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects), Tutorials, Videos

Hi everyone… Happy Friday!! It’s Holly here today with a fun card and a video.. I’m using some new products from My Favorite Things and the popular Distress Crayons from Tim Holtz.

mp2

I started out with a piece of Tim Holtz Watercolor card stock and using the Wonky Chevron stencil from MFT and some Ranger White Embossing paste I created a background. Once that was dry I added some Distress crayon in Twisted Citron and Mermaid Lagoon over the dried paste and using a wet fingertip I spread the color around over the embossed area.

I die cut the watercolor panel with the Largest Stitched Wonky die from MFT and then I added some Foam adhesive to the back and adhered it to a Kraft colored top folding card base. I stamped the images from the Forest Friends set from MFT onto some White card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them in with Copics. Then I cut them out using the coordinating dies and my Big Shot.

I adhered the trees and the bear using some Tombow Mono Multi Glue and Foam tape. I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of White card stock using some VersaFine Black ink and die cut it using the new Blueprints 27 from MFT. I adhered the sentiment with some additional foam tape as well. For a touch of sparkle I added a few of the Mixed Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

I used the following Copics to color the images:

Bear: E34, E37, E47 & E49 Trees: G03, G07 & G28 Bear Ears inside: R20

Hi everyone it’s Holly here today with a fun card using a brand new product to the markerPop store!! I created a background for my images using some Ken Oliver Color Burst Powders. They are now available in the store along with the awesome Ken Oliver Best ever Craft Mat!

mp2

I started with a piece of  Watercolor card stock cut to A2 size. I spritzed some water into the center of the paper and then I lightly tapped some of the Ultramarine Blue powder into the center. I picked the card stock up and moved the paper around to spread the color. I heat set it with my heat tool and set it aside.

Then I stamped the images from the Avery Elle Woodland Wonders set onto some Neenah Solar White card stock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them in with Copics. Then I die cut them using the coordinating dies and my Big Shot.

I die cut a piece of White card stock using the Mama Elephant All Prettied Up Creative Cuts and then I trimmed the panel I created the Blue background on to fit behind my focal panel. I assembled some of the die cut images behind the circle in the panel and then I adhered the Background piece. I added some foam adhesive to the back and adhered it to a standard top folding Grey A2 size card base. I added the rest of my images with some additional foam adhesive.

I used the following Copics: 

Tree: W00, W1, W3 Leaves: YG17, YG09 & G07 Banner: C0, C1 & 0 Owl: E11, E13, E15 & E18

Butterflies: YR12, YR07 & Y00

I started by created a Galaxy Background on a piece of Watercolor paper using Distress Inks in … Squeezed Lemonade, Picked Raspberry, Seedless Perserves,Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot. I added the Distress inks in layers drying in between and then once it was dry I splattered on some Picket Fence paint and a few drops of Stain.

I die cut the panel using the Large Stitched Wonky Dies from MFT and the I heat embossed the sentiments and a few stars from the same set using some White embossing powder. I adhered the panel to a top folding White card base using some Foam adhesive.

I stamped the bear and balloon image from Space Bears onto some White card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored the in with Copics... I used W00, W1, W3 & W5 for the Bear and a BG 10, BG11 & Bg13 for the Balloon. I added a little BG10 around the Helmet and then covered it with some Clear Wink of Stella. I die cut both images using the coordinating died and adhered them to the card front using foam adhesive. I love how the background came out I wanted the bear to really pop against the background so I was going for a lighter center in my Galaxy.
