I don't know about you, but a sleeping mouse on a mushroom??? Heck yes! Just take my money already lol. I can't just walk by (or scroll on by) a sweet stamp set like this one from Colorado Craft Company called Sleeping Mouse.
Another Zombie ATC to share with you today, using the Artful Angel stamp set called Brains. I love to make ATCs (Artist Trading Cards) and when I saw this stamp set it kind of fit with a mixed media background.
I coloured the zombie using my Kalour Coloured pencils and created a mixed media background using texture stamps and ink. She actually turned out pretty cute, lol...for a zombie!
Alright my friends, I am off to create some more fun and make a mess of my recently cleaned crafty space again!
I love the Swissies from CC Designs, I always have even when they were Swiss Pixies lol. So this Sweater Sitter Swissie (sadly, retired) also has my heart. I coloured her using the patterned paper as inspiration and my coloured pencils, although I'm unsure which ones...I have a few different kinds I use.
I paired her with some dies from my stash as well as the sentiment and bling.
A quick and fun hello card!
Good day my fine friends! Charis at Artful Angel has started a new color challenge for each month using the color palettes from Sarah Renae Clark's Color Cubes, Catalogues and Companions! I love color challenges so this is is totally right up my alley. The Color Companions take the guess work right out of the palette which sometimes is exactly what I need ;) I color with different mediums, and I love that she has (almost) all of my mediums listed in the companion.
Charis chose color palette number #271 for the January challenge:
I chose to work with the Flutterby stamp set from Artful Angel. This color palette really spoke to me for this stamp...sometimes that happens! I look at a color palette and it tells me what image it needs. I promise I'm not weird, I just love colors!
I colored this Flutterby stamp using my Prismacolor Premiere Pencils in the following colors (totally dictated by the Color Companion lol): *I have put a star beside the colors in the Companion, but I've also added a few to get the perfect combos ;) I like to have 3-5 colors in each combo.
Blue: 901, 1027*, 905*, 992, 938
Brown: 946, 944*, 943*, 140
Grey: 935, 1067, 1063, 1059*, 938
I will see you again on February 1st for another fun color palette challenge!
This puppy from Unity Stamps steals my heart every time I look at it. So of course, I had to pull out my coloured pencils (Kalour I think...) and make him the star of the show on a clean and simple card.
I paired him with a simply put sentiment from CC Designs, a piece of ribbon and some enamel dots. That's it. The image and the simple sentiment say all that needs to be said, and the white space just adds to the sincerity of it I think.
That's all for today folks, see you again soon!
Are you a list maker? I totally am. I will make lists out of anything and everything lol. I even prefer to plan using lists. When I saw this Artful Angel Picture Perfect stamp set and the companion stamp set, Picture Perfect Frames, I realized one of them looked just like me! And what better way to feature myself than to use it to deceorate something I love to do!
I coloured the images using my coloured pencils (athough I couldn't tell you which ones lol) and paired them with some other fun things from my stash such as dies from AALL & Create, Spellbinders and others. I will use this list book all year long just for fun and then I will be able to look back on it after 2025 and see what I was having fun with!
Helloooo my friends! I am sharing a card with you today featuring the Buttercream Birdy Bliss stamp from Aall & Create.
I paired the image with a Nesting Postage Die from Waffle Flower, as well as my Kalour colored pencils. I also used the word die from the SCT sampler kit and a stamp from CC Designs' 20's Fellas stamp set.
I will be back again soon, stay warm!
