No-Line Watercoloring Ink On 3 Hollyhocks and The 30 Day Color Challenge

June 15, 2019

Hey peeps.  I’m sharing some no-line watercoloring today using the Hollyhocks from InkOn3. I started this card a few weeks ago on Periscope and now finally finished it.  You can see the start of this card by hopping over to this link.  I love watercoloring and no-line watercoloring is easy with the fade out ink from Ink On 3.  I’m also participating in #thedailymarker30day challenge that the lovely Kathy Racoosin . I love participating in this challenge as it gives me a reason to color each day.

I used my Windsor Newton watercolors to create the colors for my painting.  When mixing the colors, I made sure they matched my new vintage nuvo dream drops I purchased. Once I completed the watercoloring, I used the left over paint to splatter some color on the background.

To finish up the card I pulled out my polychromo pencils to add in some depth to my flowers.  I do this a lot when watercoloring if I can’t get the depth I want.  I trimmed down this panel to add a fog background to it.  I stamped a simple sentiment to complete the card along with a few enamel dots using the new nuvo dream drops in Earl Grey, Dusty Rose and Pioneer Green.  I’m so in love this with colors.

Knockout Nibbles From Ink On 3

May 9, 2019

Hey everyone.  It’s release day over at Ink On 3 and Knockout Nibbles is ready for your cart.  This adorable little guy is perfect for get well, birthday and Father’s Day cards. This set also has some cute additional images and sentiments.  For my card today I used the
ka-pow sentiment and one of the accent pieces to make a colorful background.  Once that was completed, I die cut it out with a stitched rectangle die.

I colored up little Nibbles with Copic markers and die cut him out with the coordinating die. To bring more color onto this card I layered my first piece with a light blue card stock.  I pulled out a red piece of card stock and adhered it to a white card base.  For added interest I added a few faux stitches with a .10 white gelly roll pen.

I adhered my colorful background to the card base. Next I popped Nibbles up on an action wobble. (I mean he’s just too cute to be standing still). To add a sentiment to my card I used a few of the sentiments in this stamp set to turn this card into a birthday celebration.

Here’s a closeup of the card.  Isn’t he just too cute?  I love how this card came out!  There are some great deals for shoppers today.

InkOn3 Heels To You Stamp Set – Calling All Fashionistas

April 17, 2019

Hey peeps. The InkOn3 Heels To You stamp set is PEFECT for your fashionistas in your life. I mean who doesn’t love a fabulous looking heel.  This stamp set is now available in the InkOn3 store. Below you will see a few cards I made using this stamp set.

For this shoe I used the Fade Out Ink from InkOn3 to stamp the image on watercolor paper.  I used my Daniel Smith watercolors to color the shoe.  I love how the shoe looks like denim.  Simplicity of this card keeps the focus on the heel.

For my next two cards I used my Copic markers to color in the heels.  I also added some glossy accents and liquid pixie dust for some added interest.  Stenciling a background in coordinating colors really helps land these heels in a happy place. In the stamp set there’s an additional flower image along with great sentiments. These added images will make beautiful floral cards.  You can easily use this set for Mother’s Day cards as well.

 

 

On a personal note:  I have been absent from my blog due to family matters.  We have lost three of our loved ones in three months and their deaths have left an incredibly empty place in our hearts.  It has zapped my mojo and my spirit at the moment.  I am slowly getting back to crafting and making tutorials.  Please bear with me as I process these losses and find some peace in my life.  Thank you all for your support and kind words on my social media platforms. I appreciate each and every one of you.  As I work my way through this process, please make sure to scroll through my blog for inspiration and tutorials.   Have a great day everyone and stay blessed.

Crafty hugs,

Dana

Check Out Ink On 3 Bunny Hugs Stamps and Dies

March 3, 2019

Hey peeps.  Check out the Ink On 3 Bunny Hugs stamps and dies. It’s perfect for your Easter cards and beyond.  The sentiments in this stamp set will work for all occasion cards.  This set also has coordinating dies to go with it.

I stamped out the tree using blackout ink and lightly colored the tree with my polychromo pencils.  Next I stamped the leaves of the tree with colors of the rainbow.  After this was complete, I die cut out the tree with the coordinating die and also cut a piece from white fun foam to adhere to the back of the tree.

InkOn3 Bunny Hugs stamp set

 

For my card base I used pretty rainbow plaid paper to die cut out a fancy oval.  To make the same shape from a card base,  first start with a 4.25X5.50 card base.  Tape down the diecut  leaving the top part of the die hanging off the top of the card base.  Run this through your die cutting machine and you will end up with a shaped card.  Glue the plaid paper to the card base.

InkOn3 Bunny Hugs

 

Now it was time for the sentiment.  I die cut out the hugs with the Bunny Hugs die cuts in yellow foam, black cards tock and plaid paper.  I adhered all the layers together with glue.  This made the sentiment really stand out.  I glued the tree onto the card base and placed the sentiment on top. Just for some added interest, I used some nuvo drops around the tree. 

Now for some specials!! There will be FREE SHIPPING from March 3-10th with a purchase of $35.00 or more *US Only.  Make sure to use the coupon code: bunnyhugs2019.  For our international crafters you can save 10% off your order of $35.00 or more by using the coupon code: intbunhugs2019.  That’s it for my card today.  I’ll see you back here soon for more inspiration.

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.
