Pixel Grid Your Valentine’s Day Cards – Valentine’s Day Card Series Day 1

January 17, 2022

Hey everyone. Today is the start of the Valentine’s Day Card Series. The tutorial today is showing you how to use the Ink Blot Shop’s Pixel Grid with Pixel Grid Masks stencils. I think this stencil pack is soo very cool. I paired this stencil with the Sentiment Label Blocks stamp set. The color palette is chocolate with a splash of red and pink. There is also a bonus card using the same color palette with Copic markers.

 

 

Here is the card I made using the Ink Blot Shop Happy Mail Heart with Copic markers. The color palette is still the same just the medium has changed. The Copic makers I used for this card were R35, R46, R11, R21, E25, E27 and W02. I used the same Distress Oxide colors for the sentiments

 

You can watch the tutorial here or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

Thanks for stopping by today. I’ll be back tomorrow with another tutorial and color palette. Have a great day everyone.

Watercolor Tube Inspiration Card

June 22, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m back today sharing a quick crafty card I made a few weeks ago.  I love to watercolor so when I saw the Arts & Craft stamp set from The Ink Blot Shop I knew I had to have it.  This stamp set features some of the cutest images for us crafty peeps. You can watercolor the images or color them with pencils or markers.

For my watercoloring today I used a inexpensive palette I picked up from Amazon awhile ago.  I have a review of the palette here.  It’s really a great palette for the price.  I started off by stamping out the paint tube seven times so I could have all the colors of the rainbow.  I colored each one leaving some high light areas around the top.  Now I don’t get caught up on light source and all that.  I just like to paint and make pretty things. (However I’m taking a watercolor class so I might change that when I’m more experienced).

Watercolor Tube Card

 

Once I had all my painting done, I fussy cut each image with my spring action scissors.  Next I grabbed a piece of fog cardstock for the base of my card.  I popped each paint tube on a foam square and went in a circle-ish design round this piece after I stamped a sweet sentiment in the middle.  To add a little bit of white to the card base, I pulled out my gelly roll pen .10 and drew dots around the edges of the card panel and a few around the paint tubes.  Here’s a closeup of the card.

 

For my second card I pulled out the glue bottle, washi tape, paint bottle and sequin holder and got busy painting them as well.  The text on each bottle was done by first drawing the word out with pencil and then going over it with a fine tip pen.  Now it was time to add some Ink On 3 liquid pixie dust for sparkle. I fussy cut out each image and now they were ready for a card panel.

 

Again I kept the panel really simple with just a sentiment and faux stitching round the case base.  I them alternated the images and stacked them on top of each other as if they were sitting on my shelf waiting to be used.  This definitely  was a fun card to make. The sentiments for both of these cards are from The Ink Blot Shop Arts and Crafts sentiment stamp set.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.  I’ll see you back here soon with more card making inspiration.  Have a great day everyone.

Hot foil plates and stencils for the win! I have two very different color palettes today that aren't your traditional red and pink cards.

I do have a favorite out of these two cards. Can you guess which one? Check out the tutorial to see just how easy these cards were to put together. (link in bio)

Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine c Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine cards. In today's tutorial I made a trio of valentine cards from one background. This was so easy and so much fun to make. Where are my Distress Oxide Spray lovers?

With three colors of @tim_holtz Distress Oxide Sprays these cards were created. I don't have all the sprays and are "collecting" them little by little. The fear of using these sprays have been unleashed. 😂😂😂 After watching more and more videos from Tim, my nervousness of "messing it up" has been replaced by "oh that's so pretty". 

By using just two die cuts from products from the January 2023 release from @heroarts

The link for the tutorial is in the bio and I hope I inspire you to start creating your Valentine's Day Cards.
