CAS Card Using Bird Crazy and Copic Markers-Tupelo Designs LLC

IMG_8696

Aloha Guys!

Today I’m making a very Clean and Simple DT Card for Tupelo Designs LLC using this Bird Crazy stamp set and some Copic Markers.  I’m Super excited to share with you guys that Tupelo Designs LLC is now carrying Copic markers!! Yay!!  I decided to make this card really simple because I wanted to go over some things regarding Copic Markers.  You can get a full step by step on how I made this card by watching the video link up above.

I wanted to go over some general information regarding these markers that might be handy to know.  First off, you can keep track of your copic markers by downloading a Free Color chart from copicmarker.com and I’ll leave a link below or you can even purchase this Hex Chart from Sandy Allnock’s website for several dollars, which is a handy tool as well.  She designed this chart to help us have an easier time finding the right color combinations that go well together and I think this chart is very helpful.  The copic markers have a different numbering system that you should know in order to choose the right combinations.  You can also get more detail information in this on the copic website as well.

These markers are alcohol base markers and with alcohol based markers, it’s very important to use the right ink that’s compatible with alcohol markers.  The most popular ink pad to use with these are Momento Tuxedo black ink or My Favorite Things Hybrid Licorice Black ink.  My personal favorite is the My favorite things Hybrid ink but it’s personal preference.  Choosing the right paper also makes a huge difference on how they blend.  It’s best to use a specialty card stock such as Neenah Solar White or  Spectrum Noir card stock just to name a few.  These card stocks have a slick surface, which will help with the markers to sit on top of the paper longer for a better blend.

For todays card, I decided to use this Bird Crazy stamp set from stampers anonymous.  I think these birds have the funniest expressions and each bird has their own personality which I love.  I stamped it out using My favorite things black licorice hybrid ink on Neenah solar white card stock and chose out several colors to color the birds.  I made this bird very colorful since this was a very simple card.  I found this very funny sentiment to go along with these birds from the Dylusions stamp set from my stash.  To see a full step by step on how I made this card, please watch the video up above or head on over to my youtube channel.  For all the supplies I used on this card will be in the description below. I thank you guys so much for stopping by and please subscribe and follow for more inspirations and ideas.  I’m super excited that Tupelo Designs LLC is carrying copic markers and I’ll be sharing more products using these markers in the future.  Thank you so much and I hope to see you back next time.

Gerda Steiner Designs Post it Note Holder for Easter

FullSizeRender 2

IMG_7814

Aloha Guys!

Today I’m sharing with you this Post it Note Holder using Gerda Steiner Designs Hello Spring Stamp set.  This is going to be my kids teacher’s Easter gifts, part of it anyway.  I made the board for the post it notes using chipboard.  I cut the chipboard measuring 4″x4″ and also cut out a design paper the same size. I adhered the design paper to the chipboard using Yes Paste.  Yes paste is a very thick glue that has a paste consistency which is really good for altering book’s, scrapping, and all sorts of things.  It’s a very strong adhesive that doesn’t crinkle up the paper and it sticks very nicely.  After adhering the design paper, I used the WRMK Corner chomper and I used the 1/2″ side to round all 4 corners of the chipboard piece.  I also cut a small strip of the same design paper in 1 1/4″x 1 3/4″ to cover the binder clip to match the chipboard and I used score tape for this as well.

After all the preparations are done, now comes the fun part.  From the Hello Spring stamp set, I’m using the adorable bunny, one of the flower, and the grass.  I stamped out the bunny first and I cut out a mask for it using the 3M Post it Notes.  I stamped the bunny on the bottom right corner of the post it note and placed the mask on top.  Then I stamped the flower in the bunny’s hand and when I take the mask off, it’ll look like he’s holding it.  I also stamped the grass by the bunny’s feet and all across the post it note.  I colored all the images using my Prismacolor Premier pencils and blended it using gambol and a blending stump.  After coloring all the images, I put scor tape on the back of the post it note and attached it to the chipboard we made.  I attached the clip on top of the board and the post it and tied a ribbon on the clip.  This finishes my project for today and all the Supplies I used are listed below for your convenience.  For a Full tutorial on how I made this Post it Note Holder, Please check out my Youtube channel.  Thank you so much for visiting and Please subscribe and follow for more inspirations and ideas.  Thanks so much, Mahalo

My First DT Project for TupeloDesignsLLC

2015/02/img_7626.jpg

2015/02/img_7627.jpg

Aloha Guys!

Today I’m sharing my First DT project fur TupeloDesignsLLC. I’m very excited for this opportunity and you’ll see a lot of projects for them in the future:)
Today I’m doing some Watercoloring using Koi Pocket Field Sketch Box with 24 colors. If you’ve been watching any watercolor tutorials on YouTube for cards, you probably have seen this watercolor set being used a lot. This watercolor set has a Very Intense pigment so it’s very easy to achieve colors on images fast. It’s conveniently packages with a water-brush for those on the go. I’m also using the Stampendous Large Butterflies Trio set and I’m using the largest one. I embossed it using Versamark with Hero Arts White embossing powder onto Tim Holtz Watercolor paper. Which is conveniently cut to a card size and I used my favorite Milwaukee heat gun to melt the powder. For the Watercolored butterflies, I worked on it section by section. I drop some clean water onto where I’m coloring and just dropped in the paint and let the water do all the coloring for me. The colors will only travel Only where the water is. I blended the Blue and the Purple which I think is a perfect combination. I then Splattered some paints using the same colors to give a unified look. For a Full Tutorial on how I made this card, please check out my YouTube channel, which will be listed below. I’ll also leave a supply lust below for your convenience. They also have FREE Shipping on purchases of $65 and over and they also have flat rates shippings depending on the amount you spend. They now have A Loyalty Program where you can accumulate points to spend on your next purchases. Joining is FREE and when you first join, you’ll automatically get 500 points and after that you get 2 point for each dollar you spend. I think that’s Awesome!!  They carry a variety of products for variety of crafters so go check them out.
