Crafter's Companion Card 3

I will be trying to give a decent tutorial

and promote the awesome products that

C.C. has to offer. Be sure to check out 

their website! You won't be disappointed!

I used Spectrum Noir Colorista

EZmount Stamp Set

Elements 2

First thing I did was stamp the main

image using Memento Tuxedo Black. 

Using my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers 

I began the coloring!

I used the Clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle

Glitter Brush pen to add shimmer to my

flower petals.

Next I stamped a butterfly and colored it

with my SN markers, adding the SN Sparkle 

Glitter, Rose Quartz, over the entire 

butterfly! and cut it out. 

I shaped the butterfly, rounding the wings

a bit and added a bit of mounting tape to

the back and attached it to my card.

I added some "flying pattern" dots and

a few colored dots around a bit of the 

flowers and attached my layers to complete

my card.

Here's my card for the challenge.

Since I just returned from Florida...to Wisconsin...let me 

say that I am missing the warmth. This image was 

especially nice to work with. Brought back my tropical 

memories. I used daubers to sponge on my color for the 

sky, water, and sand. I then used my Copics for adding 

additional shading and coloring. Using a sparkle pen

I added a little shimmer to the water. Since I had 

printed out two of the images so I could add 

dimension to my umbrella. A little mounting tape 

and poof, dimension! 

I added the image to a pretty embossed piece of 

white cardstock for a clean looking scene!

Here's my card for the challenge!

Our sponsor, All Dressed Up has some awesome digis

and I just LOVE this one. It had a sentiment for  a "MUM"

but sadly my MOM has gone to be the with Lord, so, I 

just cut the image out after I used my Spectrum Noir 

alcohol markers to color it. 

 

 I raised the cut out image using mounting tape and 

added a few gems to bring in the bling! 

I embossed a piece of white cardstock and added

the raised image and a few more gem to finish.

My tiny sentiment is from Fun Stampers Journey.

Crafter's Companion Card 2

I am finding that Crafter's Companion

is teaching me how to create outside of

my usual comfort zone, and this card

is certainly not my zone, but I think it

turned out ok?? 

I used two different Sheena Douglass

stamps sets to create this card. 

El Musico                       Just Torn

First thing I did was stamp the main

images from both sets, the Just Torn

image twice, using Memento Tuxedo

Black. Using my Spectrum Noir alcohol

markers I began the coloring!

When I got my coloring the way I

wanted I added some Dazzle stickers

to accent the Skull's jacket and a 

couple of feathers to perk up his hat.

I colored my extra Just Torn image

and began cutting out some of the 

edges for layering on the main piece.

For the main Just Torn image

I cut out the center when I finished

coloring it. I had it stamped on 

white cardstock, centered on a

4 x 5 1/4 inch piece.  I took my cut 

edges from the extra Torn image and

used some mounting tape to add them

to my main card. Next I cut out my 

Skull image and placed him so he was 

coming through the hole. I used more

of the mounting tape on the back of 

my Skull so he would be raised up more. 

I added some clear S.N. Sparkle Brush pen

to the teeth of my skull (didn't photo well).

I used a dauber to edge around the 

main image layout with black ink. It 

was placed on a piece of black cardstock

and boom...my card!

Here's my card for the challenge!

Sasayaki Glitter has some great digis and I was excited

to use this cute little girl. While I was trying to think of

how I wanted to use her, I felt she needed some books

for a background, sooooo, off to Google I went. I searched

Book Images and found one I liked. I saved it then printed

it out on cardstock. Perfect!! I colored my image using

Copic markers and cut her out. The sentiment is from

My Favorite Things and it just seemed to go perfectly

with the Sasayaki Glitter digi! I added a layer of mounting

tape under the little girl, and two layers under the die

cut sentiment. That gave it great dimension.  Naturally

I needed to add a bit of FSJ Glaze to her glasses.

I needed to add the rest of the sentiment to the inside

of the card, with a couple of stamped books from My

Favorite Things. I used inks from Amuse.

Crafter's Companion Card

This is my first "official" post as a 

part of Crafter's Companion Color Team.

I will be trying to give a decent tutorial

and promote the awesome products that

C.C. has to offer. Be sure to check out 

their website! You won't be disappointed!

Here's my finished card...now, let's see

if I can show you how I made it! LOL

First of all I stamped my main image on

white cardstock, using Momento Tuxedo

Black. I also stamped on of the single 

flowers twice and a leaf. Then, using my 

awesome Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. 

I colored the flowers, beginning at the 

center, using the darkest color and worked 

my way to the outside of the flower getting 

lighter to the outer edges of the flowers.

 Next I used IB1 to color the background.

 I colored the "torn" edges of the image.

For the leaves I chose my greens and 

colored the same, dark to light, as I

did on the flowers. 

 This is the completed image. I also

colored my extra stamped flowers and 

leaf and cut them out for later.

 I used the clear Spectrum Noir 

Sparkle Glitter Brush Pen to add

a bit of blingy shine to all my flowers.

 I took a bit of white ribbon and used

the chiseled tip of one of the flower

colored pens to match my card.  I wrapped 

the colored ribbon around the bottom of

my image piece, attaching it to the back.

I found a few yellow/gold pearls to add 

to the flower centers. Using some mounting

tape I added my extra flowers and leaves.

 I attached the image to a piece of 

matching shimmer cardstock and 

completed my card. 

As a footnote, let me just say I loved

working with the Spectrum Noir Alcohol

Markers! Thanks for stopping by!
