Whatever Floats Your Goat! – CIC #592

by with No Comment Cupcake InspirationsNewton's Nook

Hello friends! Today is the start of a new challenge over on the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge blog! Challenge #592 is a theme challenge, and the theme for this challenge is flowers.

I created my card featuring the Bold Blooms Stencil and Floaty Goat stamp set both from Newton’s Nook.

After stamping the image using Simon Says Stamp Intense Black Ink, I coloured the image using the following Ohuhu alcohol markers:

  • Pinks: R120, R190, R200, RV260
  • Greys: CGII00, CG2, CG5

I also added more colour by layering Prismacolor Coloured Pencils.

For the background, I used Simon Says Stamp Sprout Ink. First, I used the stencil to ink-blend a floral background. Then, I removed the stencil and lightly inked-blend using the same colour on top to create a simple and subtle floral background.

Be sure to head on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog to submit a card for a chance to be featured as a sweet pick!

Thanks for reading. Catch ya next time!

You’re Dinomite! – CIC #587

Hello friends! Today is the start of a new challenge over on the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge blog! Challenge #587 is a theme challenge, and the theme for this challenge is dinosaurs! This challenge is also being sponsored by Pixel Paper Prints! I have created my card featuring their Dinosaurs digital stamp set.

I first printed the image (as well as cut out some of the digital plant stamps by uploading them as a basic cut file in Cricut Design Space) and coloured the image using the following Ohuhu alcohol markers:

Greens: GY2, GY3, GY4, GY7, G190

Greys: CGII00, CG2, CG5

I then ink-blended both the background and the leaves using Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxides to match the green of the dinosaur.

I also splattered the background using water and Dr. Ph Martin’s Bleed Proof White paint.

To finish off the card, I used Bearly Art Glue to glue everything down.
