Coloring on Vellum with Copics

Written by lisascreativeniche. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hi!  It is Lisa here today and I’m popping in to share my latest obsession… coloring on vellum.  I LOVE it!  I love the look of heat embossing and colored images, but when you are coloring with Alcohol markers you have to be very careful not to damage the tips of your marker by accidentally touching the embossed areas.  This is where the vellum comes into play.  I am able to heat emboss my images any color I would like, and then I am able to color on the back side of the vellum. And the results are fantastic…

Copic Markers Used: Y15, Y17, B05, B12, RV25, Stamp Set: ConCord & 9th Hello Lovely

If you use a thick enough vellum, as I have done here, you are able to hide your adhesive easily behind the larger embossed areas.  I liked the dimension that was created using one adhesive in the center of the largest flower, so I left it that way.  I finished the card with a black panel and bright sequins.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

For You: A Mix of Old and New

Written by lisascreativeniche. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hello MarkerPOP fans! It’s Lisa here with you today and I hope you were able to get your orders in for the new CHA products available in the store, so much goodness to choose from! Anywho, today I’m here sharing a card using new products from Penny Black and My Favorite Things, mixed with an older Concord & 9th Set…

To create this card I started by stamping the sweet little hedge hog, from the Penny Black Furry Hugs Stamp Set, onto a panel of Neenah Solar White Card stock. I decided to color him with my Copic® Markers (Hedge hog: E50, E00, C1, C3, R20, Cupcake: R20, R22, RV10, RV23, RV25, V12, V15, O) before masking him off to add my background colors with Distress Inks (Cracked Pistachio, Tumbled Glass). I then created my own sentiment with the Concord & 9th Sophisticated Script Stamp Set and Memento Dye Ink in Rose Bud. Next I die cut the bottom edge with the new My Favorite Things Stitch Scallop Basic Edges 2 Die Set. At this point I added a few droplets of water to the grass and sky for some interest and Nuvo Glitter Drops to the heart on the Cupcake in White Blizzard.

I finished the panel with a few Pretty Pink Posh Floral Sequins. When I came across an older piece of patterned paper that matched my colors I used it along the bottom part of my card base. And to bring it all together I tied the top off with a twine bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and make sure you check out all of the new goodies in the shop!

Bookmarks Created With My Favorite Things Stamps

Written by lisascreativeniche. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hello!  It is Lisa here today and I’m popping in today to share some super cute bookmarks I was able to whip up using BB Our Story Stamp set from My Favorite Things…

To create these bookmarks I started out diecutting the banners from Neenah Solar White Card stock with the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Banner Duo Die Set.  I then lined my images and sentiments up using my MISTI tool and stamped them in Memento Tuxedo Black Dye Ink.  I colored the images in next using Copic Markers as listed below.

Girl Bookmark: E25, E27, E59 – hair, E50, E00 – skin, G21, G46, YG63 – chair, RV91, RV95 – dress, RV23, RV25 – Book, C1, C3 – shoes

Boy Bookmark: E00, E21, E50 – skin, E25, E33, E27 – hair, R29, R89 – book, B95, B97 pants C1, C3, C5 – shoes, YG06, YG17, G14 – shirt

I didn’t want anything too complex in the background so I used my new Clarity Stencil Brushes, paper masks, and Distress Inks.  I love how smoothly the background went on, and how easy it was to clean the brushes with water!

Thanks so much for stopping by and don’t forget to enter our latest challenge!

It’s A Boy!: Use Copics For Dimension on Solid Stamped Images

Written by lisascreativeniche. Posted in Eye Candy (Projects)

Hello!  It is Lisa here with you today and I have a fun shaker card along with some tips to share with you today.  I have to admit when I first saw the WPlus9 Happy Gang Stamp set I was gushing over the cuteness, and feeling timid over the solid stamped images within the set.  Often times I find myself shying away from the stamp sets that are full of solid images, because I’m not quite sure what to do with them.  But when I kept looking at the super cute faces in this set I thought to myself, enough is enough!  So I put on my big girl pants, stamped some images and got to work.  Here is what I came up with…

And I’m so glad I did, cause this is too cute!  Plus I learned a little something myself: Copic® Markers can do anything!  ( Ok, well not literally, but they sure did help me get over my solid image fear! )  I stamped a few more of these dogs to show you how I used my Copic® Markers to enhance this already adorable image…

Colors Used: C0, C1, C3

By using matching Copic Colors to my Memento Dye Ink (London Fog) I was able to add depth, highlights and details to his cute little body and face.  I also used my White Gel Pen to add in eyes and a highlight on his nose.  Once I had tried this technique on the dog I used it on my balloons as well using Memento Dye Ink in Summer Sky and Copic Markers: B12, B32.  Now remember if you are going to use your Copic® Markers over a stamped image make sure you are using an ink that works with your markers as I did here with the Memento Dy Inks.

Other Copic Markers used include: G40, G43 for the grass, and R20 for his cheeks.  I then turned my stamped scene into a shaker card with the My Favorite Things STAX Stitched Mini Scallop Oval Set, some acetate, Pretty Pink Posh Sequins, and Lawn Fawn Paper Pack: Beachside.
