Aloha Guys!

Today I have this whimsical Art journal page for you using Gerda Steiner Designs stamp sets.  I’ve used the Brush Bunny and Hoppy Happy stamp sets for this Journal.  When I saw this bunny holding a paintbrush, I knew I wanted to make a journal page out of it.  Since this bunny is super adorable, I decided to go with it and made this whimsical journal page. This is actually a book that I used.  I found 2 ginormous boxes full of text books and reading books that belong to my oldest daughter.  We boxed them up and put it with other items to donate but forgot about it.  Good thing I opened them up, it was like finding a gold mind, lol.  Here I was, purchasing used books from the Goodwill stores for $2.99-$4.99 to use for journaling and such, so I was thrilled that I found them!!  Yay!  Now I have tons of books I can use for any type of projects that I’ll be doing in the future!  Well, I hope you enjoy this step by step process.  If you enjoy this video, please subscribe, like and share if you can.  I’d really appreciate it.  I thank you guys so much for stopping by and all your wonderful support.  I truly appreciate every single one of you.  Love you all and I’ll see you back soon 🙂

Aloha Guys!

Today I have this super adorable card for you using Gerda Steiner Designs brand new stamp set Happy Hoppy along with Neenah Linen card stock from PaperTemptress.  Gerda released several sets of brand new stamp sets and they are to die for!  Super cute, as always!!  I’m using one of them today and I wanted to make this bunny fly over the clouds holding his balloons.  I’ve again used the Clarity Brushes, my newest Obsession, lol. along with the Neenah Linen card stock I love so much.  I’ve used this card stock in particular because of it’s texture as well as it’s ability to hold water.  I’ve watercolor the bunny using some distress markers and you’ll see how easily it blends on this card stock 🙂  I hope you like this video and if you did, please hit the subscribe button as well as the like button.  This helps me to know, you liked this video.

Today I’ve created this scenery for my little duck, peeking in the water using the Linen card stocks.  I’ve used both Clarity brushes and a blending tool to create these 2 cards.  I personally love the look that the Clarity brushes gave for this specific card stock, because you can really see al the great texture.  These brushes are one of my newest obsessions as well, lol.  I hope you like this video and create this easy scenery to use with the card stocks and this adorable stamp set.  I thank you so much for stopping by and all the supplies will be linked below for you convenience.  Thanks again 🙂

How to Achieve Depth using Inexpensive color pencils

Aloha Guys!

 

Today I want to share how to achieve depth using some inexpensive colored pencils.  I’ll be using some Gerda Steiner Deisgns stamps,both rubber and photopolymer.  I accidentally purchased some Reeves color pencils, thinking it was watercolor pencils.  I threw away the packaging so I can’t return it.  Since it can’t be returned, I decided to try them out.  These pencils are not as pigmented as an artist quality pencils,creating more wax blooms than colors.  In this case, you need to layer on multiple colors to achieve depth.  You actually have to work a little harder to get the look of dimension.  You can use a solvent, such as gambol but I like to do the blending with the pencils if I can.  I hope you like this card and try this technique with your pencils.   I thank you guys so much for stopping by and please subscribe, follow and leave me a comment.  I always enjoy reading all the comments.  Thanks again.

Aloha Guys!

Today I’m sharing this Simple Halloween Post it Note holder for gift giving.  I’ve made these for my daughters Teachers and office staff members.  I’ve made these before in the past and I love this design because it’s a simple design.  I can mass produce them easily, and i love that.  The stamp sets I used are from Gerda Steiner Designs, Monster party and Peeking pumpkin kitten.  Super cute!!  I can’t get enough of the Monster party, super adorable.  I love the versatility of Gerda’s stamps, you can mix and match to meet your needs.  I’ve also used the ribbons from Papertempress, both the Pull Bow ribbon and the sheer multi-color ribbons.  The Pull bow ribbon is Fantastic, because all you need to do is pull and you’ll get this pretty bow.  I’m not the best when it comes to making bows, so this is really convenient.  I colored the Monster using some Faber-Castell Metallic colored Ecopencils because these pencils are shimmery, yet opaque enough to color on top of the Orange Post it Notes.  It glides on the paper and the shimmer is Excellent, just the right amount.  I hope you like this video and please like, subscribe and follow for more inspirations and ideas.  Thanks again 🙂
