Ginger!

Hi Make it Crafty friends!

Oops, I forgot to share this card on my blog....

 The thing I love the most to colour is hair. That’s my absolute favorite part.  I think it’s super relaxing to colour in strokes. If you are just like me, there are some awesome digital stamps in the store, the portraits!

This gorgeous lady is called Ginger and she’s available in a set with the other Portraits too. I printed her in 11 cm tall and coloured her using my Copic markers. I distressed the background with some green ink and I used the same colour on the upper half of the Happy chipboard word and coloured the bottom half in black. I’ve added some white dots with my Sharpie pen on the word. The sequins are the finishing touch.

Here are the colours I’ve used:

• skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000
• hair: E29, E19, E17, E15, E11
• eyes: YG97, G46, G43, G40
• lips: E08, E04, E02
• eyeshadow: V28, V25, V22, V20
• green top: YG99, YG97, YG95, YG93

Make It Crafty supplies:

• Ginger Digi Stamp
• Happy Word Chipboard

A summer dreams smile

Hi Make it Crafty friends,

Today it’s my turn again to show you some work from me. It’s finally summer, so I used an image that is part of the Summer Special (25% off) . She’s called Summer Dreams.

For the background I’ve pressed some papertowel on some distress inks and pressed it on some cardstock. I really love the effect you get with that technique.

I’ve coloured the girl with my Copic markers, here are the colours I’ve used:

skin: E04, E11, E00, E000, R20

hair: YR31, E59, E37, E35, YR23

dress: BV29, BG78, BG18, BG13, BG11

hat: E59, E57, E55, E53, E51

smile: RV55

Hello sunshine

Hi Make it Crafty friends!

A few days ago I received a package full of chipboard stuff! There were so many ideas in my mind and I couldn’t wait to create something with them.

I created the background using 2 distress inks and I depped some papertowel in the ink and depped it on the white cardstock. I repeated that until I had this result. I didn’t wanted to create a seamless blending.

I just love this chipboard Rainbow. Every string looks like it’s separated but it’s together on the bottom. I coloured each string with my Copic markers and I painted the clouds and the upper hello word white using my Copic Opaque White. The other hello word is coloured with a black Copic marker. I just added some sequins as finishing touch. It’s a simple card and I had so much fun!

Thank you tag!

Hi everyone!

Today there's a Krafty scrappy challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. 

That's ANYthing but a card.

And I made a tag!

I've embossed the text from Fancy Florals  with a bronzed embossing powder and depped the background with some Distress Ink.

After that I coloured the butterfly from the set Bugs & Kisses .

So I hope you will find some time to play along! 

Krafty Komeback: Let them eat cupcakes!

Hi everyone!

Avery at the beach

                                                                     Hi Make it Crafty friends!

Today I have a 100% Copic coloured card for you. I’m really into summer at this moment!

I saw that this beautiful stamp Avery at the Beach was in special at the store and I couldn’t resist her. I saw her laying on a beautiful tropical beach, so I searched in the shop for a suiting background. The Tropical Beach Landscape is a perfect match.

I printed the digital image out in a grey scale, so you don’t see the lines that much. A sort of no-lines colouring.

Here are the Copic colours I’ve used:

• skin: E04, E11, E00, E000, R20
• hair: Y21, E59, E37, E35, YR14, YR23
• bikini: RV69, RV19, RV55, RV52
• sky: B00, B000, C3, C1
• water: B16, B14, B12, BG01, BG11, BG23
• palm trees: E29, E25, E23, E21/ E79, E77, E74/ G28, YG17, YG13, YG11
• sand: E50, E35, E33, E53, E51
• shell: W7, W5, W3, W1

I also added some white dots on the water, so it looks like the waves.

Make it Crafty products that I’ve used:

• Avery at the Beach digital image
• Tropical Beach Landscape digital image

A mermaid hello!

Hi everyone!

Today it's my turn to show you a card that I made. This time I choosed to make a little underwater scéne with some mermaids and fishes. I have the Little Mermaids stamp by The Greeting Farm almost 1 year and I finally had some time to play with it!

First I stamped the images with my Memento Desert Sand ink pad on some Neenah cardstock so I can use the no lines technique to colour in. I overdrew the eyes with a black Copic multiliner 0.1 and let it dry for a few minutes. 

I started to add a layer on E51 on the bottom of the cardstock to make it like sand.

Then I coloured the rest of the sand a little bit wavy because it's in water with my E55 en E53 markers.

Now the sand needs a bit more texture and I did it with adding some dots of the same colours on top of sand.

Then I coloured the sandcastle and I used E57, E55, E53 and E51 for that. I also darkend the shadow around the castle with my E57 marker to let the castle pop out more.

After that I did the water but I forgot to take pictures in between, so stupid. I decided to have my lightsource at the right upper corner and let it fall down like hairstrokes. You have to do flicky moves.

Here you can see that I coloured a bit over the other images that are still blank, but that isn't a disaster. You won't see that if you colour the rest.

After that I did the skin of both images. I always start with skin right behind I did the background.

Then I coloured the mermaids with some fun colours. I really like it to give them crazy haircolours.

Here's how it looks like when it was done but I added some details on the bubbles with the Copic Opaque White paint. You can see that on the last picture.

And tadaaaa... Here she is, my mermaidcard!

Here are all the colours I've used (there are a lot!!!)

skin: E04, E11, E00, E000

orange: E09, E07, E04, E02, E00

purple: V09, V06, V04, V000

green: G28, YG17, YG13, YG11

pink: RV69, RV19, RV55, RV52

yellow: E37, E35, Y28, YR23, Y17, Y15

blue: B29, B26, B24, B21

sand: E51, E57, E55, E53

water: BG000, BG11, BG72, BG23, BG01
