Best Sledding

 Hi Everyone, it's Faye here today :)

With Christmas not far away, I feel it's time to start making some cards for it. I actually bought Colorado Craft Company Best Sledding last year and it's been waiting since then for me to colour it up. I decided to go with the no lines technique for an extra little push.

Rainbow Dandy Lion Video

 Hi Everyone, it's Faye here today :)

I absolutely adore the Dandy Lion range of stamps from Stamping Bella, so decided I would play with Rainbow Dandy Lion today. He's such a cute little chap. I've been colouring a lot of Halloween and autumnal projects recently, so it was nice to step away from the rich reds, ornages, purples and greens and work with something a little softer.

Squirrel Friend Heart and Tags Card with Video

Hello,

How are you doing? I hope you are happy to see some fun little squirrels.

I have stamped my clear stamp set called squirrel friend from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps onto Perfect Colouring Paper.

I have used mostly with E ( Earth ) tones together with the YR ( Yellow Red ) for a nice Autumn look. Aren't they cute the squirrels ?I love their expressions..and this set has different cute little elements too. So I have created this little scene.

I have cut the PCP with a tattered lace die I recently got myself. The dotted lines around the edge were just perfect to stitch ( by hand ) with some orange thread. I have also cut an extra heart layer out of design paper and cut it in half in able to create a pocket for the tags. The little tags are dies from Magnolia..

Please have a look at the short speed colouring video below.

Warm fall wishes. I am so thankful for you

Leaves are falling Autumn is calling

Copic:

Squirrels: E13, E15, E17, E19

R32, RV34, white gel pen for the cheeks

Leaves: YR12, YR24, YR27, YG91, YG95, YG97, E84, E87

Background : YR12, YG91, YG95, YG97

Hope you have enjoyed my post, see you next time.

Viking : Monochrome Coloring with Neutral Grey (N)

Hello,

Today I have prepared a cool Viking card,

I love to make male cards and I just love this stamp set called:

 Vailant Vikings by Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.

I have chosen my Neutral Grey sketch markers to do some monochromatic coloring ( monotone coloring ).

With some wicked black hybrid ink I have stamped the Viking onto Perfect Copic Colouring Paper.

First I have added a layer of N 0 on the helmet. Later I have added darker  N shades and have blended them.

With the N Copic sketch markers I continue to colour the Viking stamp, even the skin was coloured with the N Copic.

Please find the complete step by step ( short )  video to see how I have used the colours. 

Hope you have enjoyed the video.

Isn't this sentiment hilarious too!?

I am sure it will be fun to see the face of the receiver of this card.

I have used some black and white papers, and with some nesting dies from Crealies 

I have cut the Perfect colouring Paper into a shape with a stitched border and a glitter card stock layer too..

Copic :

N 0, N 1, N 3, N 4, N 5, N 7, N 10

Thanks for your visit, see you soon with a new post.

For You | Anti-stress Copic Doodling with Video

Hello,

How are you? A little stressed?

Today I am sharing a new anti stress doodling with my Copic, highly recommendable!

I have started with a piece of Perfect Colouring Paper a stencil from Kraftin Kimmiestamps (kaleidoscope) and a black Copic multiliner 0.3.

I have traced some of the circles. This design will just be my guideline.

Here you can see the shapes I have traced from the stencil, now I have started to add Copic colors and connect the shapes with doodles.

Just relaxing.. no thinking ..

I have picked some blue greens and yellow greens and to give it a pop also some fluorescent colors,

see list below.

I have made a little video for you.

And did you like the video?

Fun to see what effects you create with two multiliners and little Copic marker.

And some dots with a white gelly roll pen.

I have glued the design onto a black card ,

The fishtail die is from My Favorite Things

The text was cut out of foam with a die from Modascrap.

I like the contrast..end result a card and I am totally relaxed too :).

Copic:

Copic multiliner black 0.3

Cheeky Birthday Card in Fun Cheery Colours

Hello ,

Today I have prepared a cheery birthday card for you.

For me April means a month full of birthdays.

I have stamped this beautiful stamp from The Greeting Farm (cheeky birthday) with wicked black hybrid ink onto Perfect Colouring Paper.

And have started to color her skin, this combination caught my eye during a coloring video and wanted to give it a go too.

Yes it starts with a dark purple, V 17...

In the video I show all steps of the colouring of the whole card ..

 VIDEO 

STEP BY STEP COLORING VIDEO

Here it seems she is floating in the air, so I have added something to sit on with my Copic multiliner.

You can see what I did , just two simple lines which were coloured with Copic and I have also added a sentiment from another set from The Greeting Farm called warm wishes.

Here gifts are pilling up, did some masking.

In order to add a piece of design paper on the bottom I have fussy cut the left side, just along the line and her legs. 

Now it is easy to add the design paper  and glue it onto the Perfect Colouring Paper.

This is the final card, hope you have enjoyed your visit here on the blog and that you liked the video too.

There is Snow-One Like You Winter Scene with Video

Hi all,

How are you? Today I have a sweet card for you..

This is a scene I have coloured inspired by the lovely live colouring session with Amy Young.

I have used some of my Kraftin Kimmie stamps and the rest was coloured by hand with my Copic.

I have stamped the snowpoppet with wicked black krafty kolours ink and the cabin with totally taupe krafty kolours ink, this already gives the idea it is behind in the background.

I have prepared a step by step video

I have stamped another bird too, on the hat of the snowpoppet.

The  frame was cut with my quite new pretty lace doily die from Mama Elephant.

A flower from I am Roses some dots.

Some pastel colours as they seem to be popular right now..
