Hey there crafty friends! It’s Ceal, here. Today I am sharing a Halloween card with you.
Skill Level: Intermediate Time: 30 Minutes
Directions:
Gather your supplies. You will need a Halloween themed stamp set, a stencil, white and black embossing powder, some markers if you have a line art image and three Halloween colors of ink.
Step 1: Ink Blend a purple ink (VersaFine Clair Purple Delight used) on a third of the panel.
Step 2: Ink Blend an orange (VersaFine Clair Summertime used) ink over the second third of the panel.
Step 3: Ink Blend a yellow (VersaFine Clair Cheerful used) ink over the bottom third of the panel.
Step 4: Place a stencil over the blended panel and add black (VersaFine Clair Nocturne used) ink over the stencil.
Step 5: Stamp a spider web in the corner using black ink and then emboss with black powder.
Step 6: Stamp, color and cut out the image and add to the front of the card.
I’ve had a small metal tea box that I’ve wanted to repurpose into a mixed media piece for a while, so I took some time on a rainy day to make it happen.
Skill: Advanced Time: 1 hour active time, 6+ hours (drying between layers)
Directions:
Step 1:
After applying two coats of gesso around all four sides of a tea tin, spray the top of the tin with Cherry Blossom Walnut Ink Antiquing Solution and allow it to drip down the sides of the tin. Set aside to dry.
Step 2:
Spray all four sides of the tin with Lulu Lavender Fireworks! Craft Spray and allow to dry.
Step 3:
While the tin was drying, die cut four leaf clusters out of watercolor paper. Then randomly add Paris Dusk Fireworks! Craft Spray to the centers of each leaf with the stick of the spray nozzle and color the outsides of the leaves with Elderberry Memento Dual Marker.
Step 4:
Spray each of the 4 leaf clusters with Lulu Lavender Fireworks! Craft Spray and allow to dry.
Step 5:
Partially stamp each of the four sides of the tin with Night Sky VersaMagic ink on a background stamp. (I used an old woodblock typewriter stamp.) Then press the ink pad along the top edge of the tin and the raised rib as well. Heat emboss the top rim of ink with clear embossing powder.
Step 6:
Ink blend Lilac VersaColor ink through a stencil on all four sides of the tin using a sponge dauber. (Not pictured was splattering more of the Paris Dusk Fireworks! Craft Spray onto each of the four sides as well.) Then allow everything to dry.
Step 7:
Glue two of the leaf cluster dies (one on top of the other) along the right edge of two of the sides of the tin.
Not pictured was the step after this where I decided to use my sponge daubers to ink blend some more of the Night Sky VersaMagic ink along some of the edges of the leaves while they were glued down, nor using my Gold Sheer Shimmer Stix Dauber Top to add some gold to the leaves as well.
Splatter the tin with more Paris Dusk Fireworks! Craft Spray. Allow it to dry. Then glue dark blue gems around the leaf clusters to finish the box on the two slides with leaves.
Hello crafty friends! Today, we are going to do some watercoloring with Memento markers, stenciling with Memento ink, and stamping with VersaFine ink to make this Fall floral coffee mug card. Let’s gather your supplies, grab a cup of coffee, and get crafting together!
Skill: Intermediate Time: 15-20 minutes
Direction:
Step 1
Cut out a piece white cardstock into 4″ x 5 1/4″
Put the stencil on top of the cardstock and secure it with some washi tape or removable tape.
Use a blending brush to add the Memento London Fog ink to the cardstock.
Remove the stencil and set aside for the ink to dry.
Step 2
On a piece of watercolor cardstock, stamp all the floral and cup images with the VersaFine Onyx Black ink.
Cut them with their matching die set or you can simply fussy cut them with scissors.
Step 3
There are two ways of watercoloring. The first option is you can do wet on wet technique by lightly wet the area where you want to add the watercolor paint, and then pick up the ink with a water brush and color on the wet watercolor paper. And the second option is called wet on dry technique where you add the watercolor paint directly on the dry watercolor paper. Both ways work well with these Memento Markers.
On this project, I used the wet on wet technique. First, scribble each color of the Memento Marker on the craft mat. Wet the stamped image, pick up the ink with a wet water brush, and then add the color to the image. Dry the watercolored image with a craft heat gun.
Step 4
Cut out a piece of copy paper with the doily die to make paper doily. Add it to the stenciled panel with On Point Glue.
Cut a piece of black cardstock into 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″ mat, add the stenciled panel to it with On Point Glue.
Add the whole background panel to the card base with On Point Glue.
Put together the watercolored coffee mug and flower bouquet cluster with On Point Glue.
Step 5
Stamp the sentiment and faux stitch pattern on a piece of white cardstock with VersaFine Onyx Black, and then trim it into a sentiment banner.
Add the floral coffee mug in the middle of the card, on top of the doily with On Point Glue.
Add the sentiment banner on the left top of the card with On Point Glue.
Memento Markers are not only for coloring, but also watercoloring. I had fun making this card with a watercoloring technique using these markers. And I hope this Fall Floral Coffee mug card can perk you up!
Thank you for stopping by our blog today. Have a wonderful day!
Hello Friends! Katy here with another quick project. I love trying new things with my inks and embossing folders and in todays video I used my VersaFine Clair with some Brilliance pigment inks in Cosmic Copper and Galaxy Gold and Moonlight White, with a 3D embossing folder.
