Thank you bunnies

Hello!

It's time for a new Polkadoodles Craft challenge, come and join us here 😊   
 
On my card I used this super cute 3 Little Bunny Rabbits image and sentiment from Winnie Daisy Greetings, Quotes and Sentiments bundle. 
 
I used a text editor program to create a CAS card and actually accidentally added those dark green shadows. But I liked them so I let them stay 😃 Then I printed the card and coloured the bunnies with alcohol markers and white gel pen.

Lollipops

Happy friday everyone!
 
I'm so happy, I love love love Polkadoodles new Winnie Northpole collection ❤️
 
Here is my first card using Winnie Christmas Candy image. I coloured the image with alcohol markers and put half pearl to be reindeers nose, I think it looks fun =) The background I did with Trees/foliage stencil, stencil made with cut file from Ula's Life set and Distress Inks. Joy text is from Deck the Halls stamp set and spruce branches I die cutted with Holly & Spruce cutting die.

Somehow this makes me think Christmas in Bahamas or something like that 😀 But well, it will be Christmas there too, just no snow..

Tutorial - Trick or treat card with alcohol inks

Hello everyone and happy Halloween!

Here is my newest card using awesome new CCC 128 This is Halloween image. Isn't the image so cute and inspiring?! 
 

 

I also made you a tutorial how to do this card, so here we go..



So, grab synthetic paper and alcohol inks and start creating. Remember that the smell is pretty intensive, so make sure you have good ventilation.

1. Hold the paper upright and trickle the alcohol ink from over part (picture 1).

2. Do the same thing with multiple colours (picture 2).

3. Turn the paper (lower side up) and do the same thing with colours you like (picture 3).

4. Put the paper down and add some extender. 

5. Put the baking paper (or similar) over the ink paper and smooth it with your hand (picture 4).

6. Take the baking paper away and the background is ready (picture 5). If you want you can do steps 4-6 multiple times.



Here is another technique (I used these both at my card):

1. Use some extender on your synthetic paper (I used spray bottle).

2. Drop various colours of alcohol inks to paper (picture 1).

3. Take a straw and blow the inks from different sides (picture 2).

4. You can do these steps multiple times if you want. My final creation is shown on picture 3.

 


Then you need to colour the stamp.  I used this beautiful CCC 128 It is Halloween digistamp and some pumpkins from CCC 125 Spooky Season and Members October Exclusive image. I coloured those with Promarkers, PromarkerBrush's and Copics.

Here is the colours I used (C= Copics, P= Promarkers):

Skin: Cinnamon, Tan, Putty, Satin, Almond (all P).

Hat & top: green - G99 (C), Forest green (P), Bright green (P), Lime green (P), YG03 (C), YG00 (C).

Hat, top, pumpkins: orange - Burnt orange (P), YR07 (C), YR04 (C), YR02 (C), YR000 (C).

Pants: BV29, BV08, BV17, BV13, BV02 (all C).

Hair & banner: BV08, BV17, BV13, BV02 (all C).

Bats:  Black (P), C7 (C), Cool grey 3-5 (P).

 


When colouring is done, cut the images. 

If you want you can use cutting dies to make a frame (or something else) for you card.

Then just mix these all parts together and create your own card 😃

 


And here again is the result where I ended up.

 

 

 

Wow, there was so much information. I hope you understood everything. English isn't my native language, so sometimes it's hard to find the right words. If you have any guestions just let me know!  And I hope to see your creations too, please post them to Oddball facebook group so everyone can admire those!

 

And again HAVE A HAPPY (and little spooky) HALLOWEEN!

Ballerina

Happy monday!
 
Another weekend has gone by, but don't worry because today it's time for new Incy Wincy Designs Challenge! We have two Fabulous sponsors - All Dressed Up and My Besties and themes are Majorly girly / Tomboy.

Well, my card is obviously girly :) I'm using All Dressed Up ballerina digi stamp (you can get her free from All Dressed Up blog). I wanted to colour this long time and now the time was perfect. I coloured her with alcohol markers. For the background I used stamp and inside the frame alcohol inks. The frame, flowers and leaves are die cutted.

I want to think that she broke the frames that were put around him, and set herself free =)

 




My own challenge for year 2020 - use something that you own, but haven't used before:
33/52 Background stamp
