C.C. Blog — Background

Hello crafty friends, it's Rick back with you again to share not one but two cards with you.  I used the Swissie Love Stamp Set that just released last week; to create both of my cards.  I used the same layout (but altered them slightly), one technique, and the one stamp set; to make both of my cards today.  And I am excited to show them to you.  Plus I also have a video tutorial to share with you as well.  For my card I used a pink, orange, yellow, blue and violet ink and did a little ink blending...

Hello! Today I show you that you can use dies in other ways. For example that you can use what is actually the waste. Here I take the "Spotty Dotty Background Metal Die" and punch with it a piece of Glitter Cardstock. But I don't use the big piece but only the small circles. I take these to decorate the almost finished card. Hugz Ginger

Hello together! Are you hungry? Then here comes your food. So I get some when I see the stamp set ;-) I cut out the motif with a small pair of scissors, the trick is to move the paper and keep the scissors relatively still, then it works very well. I coloured the background with the delicious food and the Clara with Copcs. But this time I kept it rather striking. Because I wanted to achieve a more comic style. I hope I succeeded. What do you say? I used these things: Car Hop Clara Sparkle Enamel Dots Hugz Ginger

Hello friends, isn't that little scarecrow adorable? Would you let her scare you off? Not me ;-). In the background you can see the new background stamp, which I stamped with the embossing stamp pad, which is also quite fresh, and then sprinkled it with white embossing powder and melted the powder. After that I distributed Distress Oxide stamping ink and made some paint splashes. The small labels are the "i" from the new alphabet dies. So you can use them differently. ;-) I have used amongst other things: August&September Stamps and dies "i" as label from Olive You Alphabeth...

Hello! It's party time today! At least with these cute little bears. Aren't these two great? They are in a really good mood! I colored the motifs with Copic alcohol markers and then cutting them out. I also used the new background stamp. I colored it so that the pattern runs out to the bottom. First I dyed the paper with Distress Oxide and then I stamped over it. I oriented myself to the colours of the bears. Bears Stamps Bears Dies Backgroundstamp Enamel Dots Have a wonderful day!
