Floral Friendship Card ft. Big Friend Die for Simon Says Stamp Good Vibes Release

 It's finally here! Simon Says Stamp Good Vibes Release is Live and from what I have seen of peaks it is amazing!!!

Here is a Floral Friendship card I created with the Big Friends Die, one of the new dies released.

 This die does come with the shadow layer, but for this card, I chose not to use it. I will share a few more cards tomorrow with the shadow layer.

As you can see I also used a bunch of older SSS products to highlight this die. I will have a complete list of all of them below. To color my images in I pulled out my Prismacolor pencils.

Make sure you stop by Simon Says Stamp to check all the new products Released!

I appreciate the time you spent here and I hope you got some inspiration from this Floral Friendship card. Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Beautiful Butterflies Friendship Card ft. Stephanie Low's Wandering Butterflies Etched Dies

Happy Monday friends!

Today I'm sharing this Beautiful Butterflies Friendship card ft. Stephanie Low's Wandering Butterflies Etched Dies for Spellbinders.

I wanted to create a bright and colorful card using these beautiful dies so I chose to color them using a rainbow palette. I loosely added layers of color to the butterflies using Mijello Mission Gold Watercolors. Once they were dry I added black and white splatters to them. To the top of each butterfly, I added the intricately cut vellum layer which I later added Wink of Stella glitter to. The body of the butterfly was colored with a black Copic marker and then I used glossy accents to give the body dimension. Once the butterflies were finished I played around with the layout and when I was happy with it I added watercolor to the background to match the butterfly that would be glued on top of that area. Before gluing down the butterflies, I stamped out the sentiment from the SSS Sketch Ranunculus set.

I hope today's Beautiful Butterflies Friendship Card has inspired you. I must share that the inspiration for me came from Ruby from A Rare Ruby Her work is so beautiful and so inspiring. If you aren't following her yet, I think you must because she may rub off on you as she has done for me, plus she is such a sweetheart! 

I appreciate the time you spent here, so thank you for stopping by. Also, I want to thank Spellbinders for sending me these beautiful butterfly dies!

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Forever Best Friends Card for the Daily Marker Blog Hop

Hello Friends!

Today I am excited to be joining the Studio Katia Design Team as we hop along with Kathy Raccosin on The Daily Marker Blog Hop for Day 16 of the Color Challenge! 

Here is the fun card I created for the hop. I used the Best Friends Stamp set to create this cluster of cats and dogs by stamping it twice and doing some very simple masking in between.

To color my images in I used Spectrum Noir Markers. (Please don't ask for a list as I completely forgot to write them all down before I put them all away) 😕  Since this was a fairly large image to color in I kept the coloring and shading pretty simple. Initially, I wasn't going to color in the sky but I am happy I did as my experiment resulted in some funky streaky looking clouds.

Once the coloring was complete, I die cut the panel using the large Frame from the Darling Ribbon Die set and then added my sentiment dies from the Best Friends and the Ever Coordinating Die set. As finishing touches, I added glossy accents added pen details using Wink Of Stella, white and black Jelly Roller pens.

If you'd like to join the Hop stop by the Studio Katia Blog for all the details as there are always fun prizes and giveaways to be won! Thank you for stopping by, I hope the coloring of my Forever Best Friends Card Inspired you 😊

Until next time... Happy Hopping 👋
