Concord & 9th October Release Songbird Stamp Set

October 12, 2018

Hey peeps. I’m super excited to say I’m a guest designer for Concord & 9th this month. The October release is one of my favorites and I’m loving working with all the new products. Today’s card I’m featuring the Songbird stamp set. This set is one of my favorite to watercolor. The larger image and beautiful design really makes it easy to color. Copic markers, color pencils and even pastels would be gorgeous with this image.

For my card I pulled out my Daniel Smith watercolors to color this image. Next I used my color pencils to add some details to the image. I decided to add detail to my background with a pretty stencil. I stamped one of the sentiments on this panel and added some sequins. I fussy cut it out and popped it up on foam tape. Lastly I adhered this to a white card base.

Head on over to the Concord & 9th blog for more inspiration from guest designers and design team members. Have a great day!

Pretty Pink Posh Pumpkin Patch Critters

October 8, 2018

Hey peeps. Happy Monday. I have a tutorial for you today featuring the Pretty Pink Posh Pumpkin Patch Critters. These little critters are so precious. I’m also using Copic markers in the tutorial. I don’t do a lot of coloring videos so this is a treat for me. I really love coloring however I always get nervous to film the process. I don’t know why. It’s the crazies thing. I’m going to try and do it more often to share the process with all of you.

For the background I used the Simon Says Stamp Mod Stripe stencil. OMG I LOVE this stencil. It makes perfect backgrounds and I LOVE the mod feel of it! I’ll be using this on a bunch of cards as it’s never leaving my desk. 😂

For my Copic colors and ink colors I used the following:

Copic Markers

Pumpkin: Y17, YR07, YR18, E25, E27

Fox: YR27, E19, E37, E00, E000

Squirrel: W1, W3, W5, W7

World Cardmaking Day Blog Hop Technique Tuesday

October 6, 2018

Hey peeps. Happy World Card Making Day! I’m so excited to be a part of the WCDM blog hop with Technique Tuesday. We have some awesome projects to share with you for this great hop along with a chance to win a gift certificate to Technique Tuesday. Also for the hop we have a coupon code for you to use at check out to get a free featured stamp set just for this hop.

All you have to do is purchase $30 in products from Technique Tuesday, add the You’re Awesome stamp set to your card and at checkout put in the WCMD18 and the You’e Awesome stamp set will be free. Yup, FREE peeps!!

For my first card I colored up my owl with Copic markers and paired it with some fun paper from Doodlebug Designs. I cut my paper on a diagonal and flipped one piece over to use the second side of the paper. I glued on some goggly eyes onto my owl and started to build my card. I placed the pattern paper on the left side of the card to allow myself some space for a sentiment. I stamped the sentiment in blue ink to coordinate with the colors in my background paper. All that was left was to pop up my adorable owl.

For my second card, I deiced to make a simple shaker card. I again colored my image with Copic markers and used some pretty designer paper to make the card panel and shaker area. I used vellum instead of plastic to keep the background a little bit softer and filled my shaker part with micro beads. I cut out the sentiment three times in brown cardstock and stacked them to make them sturdy. Next I stamped a coordinating sentiment on the yellow designer paper and put my card together. I placed my owl off to the left of the circle leaving enough room for you to see all the shaker elements. For this owl I used a different pair of eyes to make it even cuter.

Pretty Pink Posh Autumn Wreath Tutorial

October 5, 2018

Hey peeps. I’ve playing in the Pretty Pink Posh Autumn Wreath. I absolutely love this beautiful stamp set. It is perfect for autumn inspired cards. As you can tell I’ve been all over the fall cards lately. LOL

I have two cards for you today. One I have a tutorial for and the other I just wanted to share with you. Let me show you the first card that I made for the tutorial. This card I kept clean and simple using distress inks, the Pretty Pink Posh Autumn Wreath stamp and some embossing powder.

Okay here is the tutorial. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy. I’ve used affiliate links for your convenience at no cost to you.

Here is my other card I created using fadeout ink from InkOn3 and my polychromo color pencils. I had such a relaxing time coloring this card. I also kept this card clean and simple by repeating a similar background like my first card and adding just a few gems to the card panel.

Thanks so much for hanging out with me today. Make sure to swing by here tomorrow as it’s World Cardmaking Day. I’ll be participating in a blog hop and you’ll have a chance to win a gift certificate. I’ll see you guys back here soon.
