Kovu and Fred

Hello and welcome back, so happy to share my card today for the challenge here at One Crazy Stamper.  I am using the new release from High Hopes Rubber Stamps, this one is called Kovu and Fred.  I decided to make it a Valentines card, hope you have some fun and inspiration and enter your creations here at One Crazy Stamper.

I decided to play up this card with the fun Twisted Pop - Up card, seen this on numerous sites, including You Tube but found the printed version over a Splitcoaststampers in the tutorial section.  This was super fun, so if you get a chance try this and many other ones.  Makes for fun technique in cards.  

I added the sentiment on the inside it is also a High Hopes Rubber Stamps-A Hundred Hearts.

Thanks again for stopping and remember to stop by Lora's store for supplies including these fun stamps.  Till next time hope you get your craft groove on.  Cheers!

 Supplies:

HH Stamps-Kovu and Fred, A Hundred Hearts, Copic Markers, YNS Gumdrops, Memento Black Ink, Oval Dies, Twine, Carta Bella Paper, 

Always and Forever! High Hopes

Happy Friday!!

I'm gearing up for Valentines and made this little heart number just for fun!

Today's creation is made with ...

High Hopes Love Birds found here!

& 

High Hopes Always and Forever found here!

 The heart base was hand cut by folding the paper in half and drawing the heart shape.

From there sewing stitches were added and I ran the heart through a Valentines embossing folder.

The image was  was coloured with Copics and also stitched up for some added eye candy.

Black lace, Red Twine and some pretty pink Stickles were added.

The sentiment was stamped with Tim Holtz Festive Berries.

Love Birds

Happy Thursday everyone!


Today I'm sharing an adorable new image from High Hopes Rubber Stamps called Love Birds.  I wanted to do a little something that looked different so I colored this pair of little birds up on Kraft cardstock.  I used Copic's of course but I added a bunch of shading with my Prisma pencils as well.

I played along with our January OCS Challenge Sketch with a couple of my own modifications.  You can find the Challenge HERE

 This is the 2nd card I have done on Kraft and I have found that when using my Copics it is best to test the color first.  Some colors dry darker some much lighter than you might think.  So I started to create my own little index card system.  I will add to this each time I want to play with a new color combo.  I am using American Craft cardstock and that is what my index cards are made from.  Each brand of cardstock will react differently to the marker so it is a great idea to find a brand you like and work with that.  This is my index system, at least for now.

Copics I used for this card...

Heart Leaves - BG72, BG71 (I made this color with BG78 & BG72) with Peacock Blue Prisma

Scroll - BG72, BG10 with Aquamarine & Light Aqua Primsa

Left Bird - E97, E95, E93 with Pumpkin Orange Prisma

Right Bird - E41, E42, E43 with Light Umber Prisma

Shading around birds - Yellow Ochre Primsa

Background Shading - Light Aqua Prisma

You can't tell from the picture but I did add a bunch of sparkle to the scroll and leaves with Clear Wink of Stella.

If you are looking to grab this adorable image you can find it HERE at OCS or HERE at High Hopes.

Have a wonderful day!

Hugs,

Hugs & Kisses

I hope you are enjoying the design teams incredible makes with the new Live Love Laugh release from High Hopes! 

This week I got to play with "Betsy Loves Barney". I had a friend that grew up on a pig farm and we used to have to do the chores every day, twice a day.... and every once and awhile we had to clean out the pens.

Sorry, but I don't remember seeing any pigs in real life that are this cute!!!

I coloured my stamp with alcohol markers then cut it out using a stitched oval die. The background oval was cut out with my Cricut......I wasn't going to use it at first because technically it didn't fit properly. But, I kind of like the look of having some colour peaking out on the ends only for something different so I decided to use it. 

I added my image to patterned paper from Cosmo Cricket and MME. The sentiment was stamped on some matching cardstock and cut to size. Some corner dies, ribbon and gold heart brads finish off my card. 

Card Recipe 

Stamps: Betsy Loves Barney (TT071) - High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Sentiment: Hugs & Kisses (GG010)- High Hopes Rubber Stamps
