Two More Cards (Blue Fern Studios)

Hi,

Here is my other set of card for Blue Fern Studios this month.

Christmas


For those two cards, I went a little big because I wanted cards in which I could write a longer message. On my kraft cardstock, I added a piece of the Auld Lang Syne paper from the Vintage Christmas 1 collection. Over it, I added some modeling paste through a stencil. I then layered a piece of corrugated paper.


I cut one of the Lace Round in half, putting each piece on each side of my composition. I left this chipboard bare, to match the kraft of my card base. My sentiment is cut from the 'Twas the Night chipboard. The whole title was too big to put on my card, so I cut it apart to keep only the word «Christmas».


On this card, I used the Spring Branch. I painted la very light coat of white gesso, and then, I embossed part of it with Breeze Imagine Ink embossing powder.


On my second card, I used the Blooming Flourishes, that I embossed with Breeze Imagine Ink embossing powder. 


I also used the Shabby Flakes, that I embossed with Snow Imagine Ink embossing powder. My large doily chipboard is the Dream Catcher chipboard. 


My Christmas title is cut from the Holly Jolly Christmas piece. On both of my cards, I used Attic Charm Daisies, Christmas Blooms and Spring Lilies flowers.

Two cards (Blue Fern Studios)

Hi, 

Here is my first set of cards for Blue Fern Studios this month. 

Wonder and Noel


For those two cards, I did start with a 6x6 card, covered with the Jolly paper from the Vintage Christmas 2 collection. I then put another square, slightly smaller, from the Tree Trimmings paper, also from the Vintage Christmas 2 collection. 


I used the Large Flake chipboard, covered with Frozen Imagine Ink embossing powder. A piece of cheese cloth to soften the look. After that, I went with an image from the Jolly paper.


My title piece comes from the Winter Titles set. I covered it with Snow Imagine Ink embossing powder. I used some modeling paste to give the effect of snow. I did the same with the Chelsea vines. The flowers are from the Attic Charm Glitter Roses and Christmas Blooms.


For this card, I began with the same two patterned papers as the card above. My circle chipboard piece is the Splattered Circles set. I embossed it again with Frozen Imagine Ink embossing powder. After I put cheese cloth, I die-cut this little lady from the Let It Snow paper from the Vintage Christmas 2. 


My title piece comes from the Winter Titles set. I covered it with Snow Imagine Ink embossing power and modeling paste. I did the same with the Chelsea Vines, again.


And again, the flowers are from the Attic Charm Glitter Roses and the Christmas Blooms.

Blue Fern Studios products used:
Tree Trimmings, Jolly and Let it Snow papers from the Vintage Christmas 2 collection.  
Chelsea Vines, Splattered Circles, Large Flake and Winter Titles chipboards
Imagine Ink Frozen and Snow embossing powders
Attic Charm Glitter Roses and Christmas Blooms

Merry Christmas,

A Watercolor Santa (Shimmerz Paints)

Hi,

I'm here today to share my last creation for Shimmerz Paints. As Christmas is near, I wanted to make something Christmassy, but I didn't want to do a layout, so I went for a little ornament that made its way on my mantle this year.



I drew the Santa following an image I've pinned on Pinterest. I'm sorry, I can't find the link. I would love to give the credit to the person who drew this cute Santa first.



For his clothes, I used Red Hot Aqua Huez and Tidy Widy Texturez. For his skin, I used Tan Yer Hide Aqua Huez and My Clementine Creameez. I also added a bit of Piglet Aqua Huez on his cheeks. His beird, hair and moustache, I shaded with No One's Chrome Inklingz and Thunder Storm Creameez.



The belt, I colored with Inter-BLACK-Tic Aqua Huez. For the buckle, I used Sheer Bliss Inklingz. His little stuffed deer, I painted with Don't Be Suede Coloringz and a bit of Tan Yer Hide Aqua Huez. 




I used Ride the Tide Creameez around Santa, and Green Acres Creameez under his feet. 

I hope you like it.
