Technique Tuesday Sneak Peek Day 2

October 31, 2018

Hey peeps.  It’s Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 2.  If you missed yesterday’s sneak peek day 1 you can click and see what I made.  We are just one day away from release day.  Today I’m sharing the beautiful Poinsettia stamp set. OH MY WORD I can’t begin to tell you how much I loved creating this card.   This image is the perfect size to make beautiful watercolor card panels.

I started this card off by stamping the image randomly onto a piece of watercolor paper.  Next I carefully colored each image in bright pink watercolor.  I used an image I found on the internet to get the perfect color combo for this card.  I used two different watercolors on my card using the Dr. Ph Martin hydrus ink as well as my Daniel Smith watercolors.  After each flower was colored I created an ultra dark background to really make them pop.

 

I decided to add some white splatters using white gouache and a paint brush.  I just tapped on the end of my paint brush to make the splatters.  Just make sure if you do this is gouache is watered down well.  Then I set it aside to try.  Next I created a sentiment strip using vellum as I didn’t want to stamp the sentiment directly on the card panel and wrapped it around my watercolored piece.  I adhered this to a white card base and all that was left was to add a few embellishments.

 

 

I have to say I am really loving this card.  Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Make sure to swing by the other design team members blogs to see what they have in store.  See you back here tomorrow for release day.

Technique Tuesday Sneak Peek Day 1

October 30, 2018

Hey peeps.  It’s Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It’s the end of the month and it’s the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I’m sharing the Christmas Cocoa stamp set. This stamp set perfect for those warm and cozy holiday cards.  While making this card I just had to sip on some hot chocolate.
For my card today I stamped out the the mugs from this stamp set and colored them with Copic markers.  When I color with any medium and I’m using designer paper, I always make sure to match my medium to the colors displayed in the designer paper pack.  This helps me get a very cohesive looking project.  One I colored up my images I fussy cut them out and added just a touch of glitter to my whipped cream.  Next I stamped out a sentiment and layered it with some brown card stock for a nice border.
I hope you enjoyed your visit today.  Make sure to swing by here tomorrow for more sneak peek inspiration.  All products will be available Nov 1st in the Technique Tuesday store.

Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Ca Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Cards. I'm using two products I don't think I've ever used together before. 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.

The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now available. The Terrific Textures stamp designed by @melaniemuenchinger was so much fun to play with.

I stamped the image several times in different color inks from Gina K. Designs. The colors are Passionate Pink, Wild Dandelion, Key Lime, Lucky Clover and Ocean Mist. Next I filled in the area using my W-G 7 @olomarker to change the paper from white to this pretty warm gray color. 

While I was stamping the images, I made sure to leave a section blank where I could place my Happy Birthday sentiment. This was such a great card to great.
