SPF 1000 Summerween pumpkin card

Hello and welcome, 

This is my third make as a guest designer for Whimsy stamps Summerween. 

I started with the background and stamped the pumpkin stamps on post-it notes twice, cut them out and used as masks when I stamped the 15 pumpkins on watercolor paper. 

I colored one pumpkin in different colors and the other 14 in black shades. 

I decorated three of the corners with orange half pearles. 

I cut a text from the Quick card front pack, sanded the edges and then colored the sentence in orange. 

I cut the film strip die from black kraft stock. Cut one frame and sanded. I also stitched the edges of the background with black thread with my sewing machine and then inked the edges with black ink. 

I adhered the frame with 3D foam for dimension and gave the pumpkin a pair of ”googly eyes” 🙂. 

I also stamped the wave stamp a couple of times on the bottom of the card. 

I mounted the background on a piece of white cardstock with 3D foam for dimension. Inked the edges with black ink. 

Then I made a cardbase from black cardstock. 

Products used: Summerween Scream Clear stamps CWSD425a, Slimline Film strip die WSD463, text from Quick card fronts. 

Thank you very much for visiting,

Cool cat - Birthday card for my Dear Dad

Hello and welcome, 

Today I have a birthday card for my Dear Dad to share❤️. 

A while a ago when Katzelkraft had a final sale I was lucky to caught some of their stamps. This cat was one of them. Other products are from Tim Holtz.

 

I started to cut a piece of Watercolor cardstock. Used the THS145 Stencil Digits and Distress Microglaze as a resist. This is such a cool technique. Then I sprayed Distress spray stains and Distress Oxide spray. The Microglaze resist the spray and gives such a cool look. Heated with Heat tool. 

Then I stamped some stamps on the background. Some using Black embossing powder and some with Archival ink. 

I used the same stencil and choose a part of the stencil that has number 84 on a row, and then used black Texture paste. (My Father turned 84 years). #happybirthday is stamped and embossed with black embossing powder. 

I stitched around the edges with my sewing machine, and I also inked the edges with Ground espresso Distress ink. I used Alcohol ink in Mushroom to color to Hardware heads for the upper corners on the card. The number strip is an Idea-ology Number strip which I fastened with a Tiny clip. 

I stamped the cat on Watercolor paper and colored it with Distress inks. Cut it out, inked the edges and adhered it to the card with 3D foam for dimension. 

I inked the edges on three small Ephemera pieces and adhered them with some glue and a long fastener. 

I used some Ideaology Cello sticker tape as decoration as well.

I mounted the card with 3D foam on a dark grey piece of cardstock and then made a card base from White cardstock that I inked the edges on. 

Products used: Watercolor cardstock, Distress Micro glaze, Distress spray stains, Distress Oxide spray, Black texture paste, Distress ink Ground espresso, Alcohol ink - Mushroom

Stamps: Katzelkraft Cat Detective, CMS489 Deconstructed, CMS403 Glitch, CMS183 Hashtags

Ideaology: Long fasteners, Hardware heads, Tiny clip, Cello sticker tape, Ephemera snippets - Curator and Number strips

I will try this card in a challenge over at Simon says stamp Monday challenge - Masculine.

Happy Summerween

Hello and welcome, 

Summerween is in full swing over at Whimsy stamps and this is my second make as a guest desiner for them. 

For this make I have used some Kraft cardstock which I colored with Distress inks and Oxides. I diecut the paper with the Terrific tickets die and stamped with embossing ink. Then used white embossing powder, and heated. 

I colored the stamped image with Distress inks and Distress oxides, and used a white Posca pen for highlight. 

I splattered some black acrylic paint on the background as well.

I used one of the text strips from the Quick card fronts, sanded the edges and used a white Posca pen around the text.

I used some black enamel accents in the corners of the card, and some glossy accents on the glasses. 

I mounted the card on orange and green cardstock with 3D foam between layers for dimension. Then I made a black cardbase from heavy cardstock.

Products used: Summerween Scream clear stamps CWSD425a, Summerween Scream outline die set WSD053, Terrific tickets die WSD036 and Quick cardfronts.

I hope you get inspired by this and all the other designer’s beautiful creations with this funny release!
