Squirrel and owl card for Frantic Stamper

Hi,

here is another use of Frantic Stamped die – FRA-DIE-10264 Cross Stitch Grid. I used it just like background die, no stitching this time. I die cut different leaves and boho flower and autumn scrolls – to make background for my critters – images are from very old stamp set by Hero Arts (really I think it is retired now but you can find by Frantic Stamper another stamps with woodland critters). Images are stamped with Versa Fine onyx black ink and coloured with Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I fussy cut them. It is easy funny Autumn card.

Frantic Stamper dies: FRA-DIE-10264 Cross Stitch Grid, FRA-DIE-10275 Boho Flowers, FRA-DIE-10281 Autumn Scrolls, FRA-DIE-10276 Single Boho

Romantic card for Cherish the memory

Hi,

I am still playing with Summer Feelings collection by Studio Light. For today I prepared romantic layered card. It is really not complicated to layer different papers from paper pad and die cuts.  I love that all die cuts – ephemera –  you can just lightly pull from sheet no need of fussy cutting. That makes me happy!

supplies:

Empheria Studio Light EASYS574 Summer Feelings label collection die cuts on A4 sheet

Summer Feelings F47 Easy embossing and cutting Beach frame die with starfish and feathers

Summer Feelings PPSF53 15 x 15cm paper pad with 36 sheets and 9 patterns

Gratitude card for Frantic Stamper

Hi, this month I have really many projects for Frantic Stamper, I love August release so I can stop making different cards. You should really check all new dies and stamps.

This card was quite time consuming – I did lot of colouring with Kuretake Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. But I love colouring it is such relax. I can sit over colouring for hours. So I coloured images I die cut them. I die cut red panel and white panel and before I finished my card I stamped sentiment with Memento luxe Morocco ink – it is pigment ink so I could emboss it with clear embossing powder. Than I glued everything together and add self adhesive gemstones.

I used FRA-DIE-10108 Deckled Rectangles, FRA-DIE-10261 Grateful Florals Outline and stamps – CL-076.

MY TIPS FOR YOU

1. applying colours through stencil – take sponge or Distress ink applicator and any ink and apply it through stencil – I made this way dark green leaves and black leaves and yellow flowers

2. use the technique above but apply it on to paper (you can use patterned paper too) and cut it, and you have your own embellishment

3. when you apply black ink through stencil it will look like stamping – so for my canvas I did not use ANY stamp, just black ink through stencil

canvas_bloghop - 1Story behind canvas

There is old ruin of mill which stands behind village where live my parents-in-law. It used to be amazing place with really awesome stone walls, with wooden machines for everything. But nobody cares about it. So now it is almost whole down. Almost nothing left from old ages. When I asked my father-in-law about it he told me that there are some owners but they do not live close and they do not care. I think now it is impossible to save it and bring to life. This canvas will be one of the latest memory before whole building will be damaged by time.

material:

for background I used Brusho: Leaf green, Dark Brown, Orange, Olive green

Memento Luxe inks: Olive grove, Tuxedo black, Dandelion

Finnabair mediums: Heavy gesso

Stencil girl stencils: S456, M167, L506

papers: 7 dots studio – collection Hazy days
