So Much Fun

So this week must be the week to show you how to use the same stamp different ways, because my project today features the same High Hopes Stamps image that a couple of the other design team members have already used.  This is My Beat Friend that you can find right here in the store.

 

I colored the image with Copics, then fussy cut it and placed it on a tag that also features a Marianne Designs creatable grass die, and some hand drawn lines and sentiment made with a Copic Multiliner pen.

This sweet card features Hedgy Has Flowers and Garden Fence that I have colored with Copics.  After finishing the coloring I fussy cut the images and place both of them on the card front that features dp from Dovecraft, ribbon, and a sentiment from CC Designs Adoring You stamp set.

My Best Friend

Hello Fellow Crafters;

Wacky Wednesday is here again and hopefully the snow is finished for the week.  February has started with a lot of snow.

Here at OCS, we have a new challenge this month which is Red, White and a Die. We are using the High Hopes January release and for my post today, I have used this cute image called My Best Friend.  I used Ranger's Dried Marigold and Mowed Lawn distress inks to add colour to the embossing folder.  The sentiment was left off as I was unsure of what to use at the moment.  It can be added later when I use the card.

Supplies used:

• Stamp:  My Best Friend (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)
• Ink:  Staz-On Jet Black, Dried Marigold and Mowed Lawn (Rangers Distress Inks)
• Paper:  Fabriano Studio Watercolor Paper Hot Press
• Derwent Inktense Pencils:  Hedgehog:  Tan (1720),  Oak (1730),  Saddle Brown (1740), Ink Black (2200), Carmine Pink (0520); Pot: Red Oxide (1910); Bee: Sun Yellow (0200), Ink Black (2200); Pot:  Red Oxide (1910)
• Embossing Folder:  Ecstasy Crafts
• BoBunny Jewels

There is plenty of time to enter this month's challenge for a change to win a prize from OCS.  For any supplies that you might need for your project, check out Lora's OCS for some great products, Pre-Orders and amazing prices.

Until next time, keep crafting and enjoy yourself.

Fairy Godmother Spinner Card

Hello OCS fans!  I have a very fun card to share today - using one of the new Art Impressions Spinners from their 2015 release.  This little fairy is my absolute favourite out of all the new Ai product!  I've made a spinning easel card to show her off, here is Fairy (Sku #4576):

 The Spinners are literally designed to spin!  The set comes with both a front and back image, and a sentiment.  I have sandwiched a piece of thread between the front and back when I glued her together, and then I've suspended the thread between my die cut frame.  Here's a close up where you can see the thread:

 After colouring the fairy, I used pieces of washi tape to secure two Spellbinder's dies together, and then cut them out twice in the turquiose cardstock to form my frame:

 After fussy cutting the fairy, I drew a light pencil line on the wrong side of her, and ran a line of glue down it to adhere the piece of thread.  Then I glued the fairy together, and sandwiched the top and bottom ends of the thread between the frame pieces.

 My card base is 5 1/2" x 11".  You can see below that I glued two matted pieces of star print paper onto the card front.  I scored a line across the front between the two panels - this is where the card will fold up to the easel shape.  I positioned the smaller of the two dies (the photo shows both, but I removed the larger die before cutting!) in the middle of the front and ran it through my Cuttlebug.  Then I glued the bottom half (only!!) of the turquiose frame on top of the opening, so that when the front is bent upwards, the fairy would be suspended in the frame.

Here is what the card looks like closed:

And finally a few more shots so that you get the idea - you won't believe how difficult this card is to photograph, as she literally spins all the time.  I set her spinning, then quickly shot a bunch of photos until I got her facing forward - it was quite funny :o)
