It’s Ceal, here. Today I am sharing how to make this Clean and simple Mother’s Day card using the Brilliance for shimmer and VersaMagic dew drops.
Skill: Beginner to intermediate Time: 30 mins
Directions:
Gather your supplies. You will need a Mother’s Day stamp set or floral set as I have used here and a Mother’s Day sentiment. For inks I used a Brilliance Dew Drop and a VersaMagic Dew Drop
Step 1: Ink your stamp with a black ink
Step 2: Using the coordinating stencil and a blending brush or sponge dauber, ink blend a pearlescent pink on the flowers.
Step 3: Using the coordinating stencil and a sponge dauber or blending brus, ink blend green chalk ink on the leaves.
Step 4: Add embellishments of choice. I used some dew drops.
– Hi everyone! It’s Jessica here. Today I would like to share a card with a black and gold color combo. My card creations are typically full of bright colors; so I decided to change it up a bit by using a simpler color palette. Since there are only two colors on this card, I wanted to add various shimmer and glitter textures to create dimension. Let’s take a look!
Step 1: Trim Stardream Metallic 5 x 7 Onyx cardstock to 3 ¾’’ x 5’’. Paint golden stripes on the card panel with Sheer Shimmer Gold. One trick to avoid the gold shimmer from pooling on the edges is to swipe your paintbrush onto the craft mat. Another alternative is starting with a bigger piece of cardstock, then trimming the panel down to size.
Step 2: Dry the cardstock panel with a heat gun, and repeat steps 1-2 until you achieve bold, gold stripes. The Stardream Metallic Onyx cardstock has a subtle shimmer as well – it adds an elegant touch to the card base.
Step 3: Die cut roses and leaves with DCS Gold Glitter Heavyweight 12 x 12 cardstock. I find this glitter cardstock very easy to cut through. Some of the glitter cardstock I’ve used before uses adhesives to bind to the glitter, which takes a little more time to peel the die cut pieces off each other. This glitter cardstock, on the other hand, separates very easily after it’s been cut through.
Step 4: Next, adhere the die cuts to the strips background panel. I used On-Point Glue since the fine-tip nozzle is perfect for applying small amounts of glue. Then, use an acrylic block to press down on the die cut so that it completely adheres to the background.
Step 5: Finally, stamp the sentiment with Brilliance Galaxy Gold ink pad. This gold ink pad matches the Sheer Shimmer Gold so well! I added some black enamel dots to complete the card. I love the classic black and gold color combo, and I hope this card inspires you to try different kinds of gold shimmer on your project.
Hi everyone! It’s Jessica here. Do you like collecting certain stamp images? I am fond of mermaids and have a rather big collection. Today, I thought I would use this cute mermaid wooden stamp to create a card.
Step 1: When was the last time you used a wooden stamp? If I’m being honest, I bought this stamp around 10 years ago so it was nice to see that it still inked up nicely with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I stamped it on Classic Crest Solar White cardstock since I will be coloring with Copic markers today.
Step 2: This mermaid image is darling and easy to color. I started by drawing strands in her hair with E50 / E53 / E55. Then I colored her skin with E000 / E00 / E11. I also added blush with R20 / R24. For the seashells, I blended BV11 / V15 / V17. I used one of my favorite color combos on her tail: BG10 / BG13 / BG18. Lastly, I color her crown with Y00 / Y11 / Y06.
Step 3: Once I finished my coloring, I die cut the image with Spellbinders Nestabilities Floral Ovals die.
Step 4: I wanted to create a wavy background for today’s card. I picked out DCS Hydrangea Purple, Plum Purple, Seafoam Green, Blue Calico, and Indigo Blue to create an oceanic gradient that reminds me of an underwater palace. I hand-torn them to create wavy patterns; I just love the organic feel you get with the paper fiber edges. These cardstock pieces have texture on one side, and are smooth on the other. I like the variety of textures and ended up using both the smooth and textured sides.
Step 5: To add even more texture to the background, I heat embossed Plum Purple strips with Mboss Princess Party embossing powder, and Indigo Blue strips with Mboss Shimmery Night Sky embossing powder. I swiped VersaMagic ink directly onto the cardstock and the embossing looks great without having to heat emboss a second round.
Step 6: Then, stamp the sentiment with Brilliance Pearlescent Purple ink pad.
Step 7: Now it is time to put the background pieces together. I applied Tear-It Tape to the straight edge of each cardstock strip, and adhered them to the cardbase from the bottom to the top. Once you are done, cut any overhang pieces on the sides. Finally, adhere the mermaid die cut piece and the sentiment to the wavy background, and the card is complete!
