The BV’s are for the narwals, The Y21 and Y28 are their horns, The B32, Y11 and YR12 I used in the Copic Air Brush System to create the background effect.

The stencil I used is from last month’s release and if you are more curious how I created this little no-line narwals I will have a video on my YouTube channel this coming Wednesday showing both the background and the coloring!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

And here we are celebrating this month’s release, hopping and shopping is always fun! I am sharing another card using my Wooly Wonderland set. Today’s card is a slimline to pack in a whole heard of little wooly friends.

  • I stamped the little lamb first (remember this is the bonus stamp this month, you can only get him with a minimum purchase)
  • Then I masked him off and added one larger body
  • I masked him off and added two more sheep bodies
  • Then last I got to pick fun faces to go on each and a sentiment to tag on the end
  • Coloring here I come! Here are the Copic colors I used
E 7’s are the wool, W’s and E93 are the faces and legs, the BV’s and Colorless Blender are the snowy ground, and then the V’s, BG,s and Yes are the hats and scarfs. (The Y’s are the jingle bells)

Trimming off the top of the image allows the sheep to sit on the bright bold patterned paper. Here is a closer look at the line up.

Here is a look at the card!

This month I created three cards with my new Wooly Wonderland set. One of the cards I have not shared yet but do not worry it is being featured this Wednesday with a full coloring video to go along with it!

Thank you so much for hopping by!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Day 3 Kraftin Kimmie Peeks

 Today is our third day of Krafty Peeks for the September Release

 at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps!

Today we are ‘peeking’ a fabulous set 
from artist Michelle Houghton
 and it’s called…..

 

WOOLY WONDERLAND!

 

Ewe’ll have the coolest cards around with this fantastic mix and match set of wooly critters!

Check out WOOLY WONDERLAND in so many creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team’s blogs! You’ll also see the new stencils, Add-Ons and hybrid ink along the way!  Be sure to leave some love at each stop on the hop because there will be a giveaway for some krafty $$ to the shop! 

 

You’ll see more of our September goodies tomorrow, and then everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party on Saturday afternoon at 2pm ET in the Krafty Friends facebook group!  
 
For now, check out all the beautiful projects in today’s hop!
See you tomorrow!

Super excited to be sharing my latest stamps with you this month. These little sheep are characters I have drawn for many years and to see them come to life in the creative hands of the Design Team has been super fun this month! So here is a closer look at the card I created for today! Did you notice that the bonus stamp this month is similar?! Yep they are made to go together!

  • I started by stamping my little sheep then masking him and adding the larger body. Because I used a no line technique I did not worry about masking when it came to the wiggly hat, I knew the colors would cover the light pink ink lines easily!
  • Then colored them both up using my Copic markers of course. (Little secret, there will be a video next Wednesday showing how I color the little wooly guy!)
The E7’s are used on the wool, the W’ are on their faces and legs as well as the E93, greens and reds for the hats, and then the blue violet, blue and Colorless Blender were used on the ground and sky.

Here is a close up of the wooly pair.

And a view of the finished card!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you love my wooly creations as much as I do. More of them to come in the next few days!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Having fun keeping it simple as usual. I colored up one of the images of today’s Krafty Comeback set Candy Cane Kisses with a limited color pallet. I used a group of Copic reds and cool grays to color up the little boy and his friend.

I fussy cut this little image out, used a red Copic to fill in the interior spaces so they will match the background paper. I layered him with some pretty patterned papers and trim and all done!

Thanks as always for stopping by!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
