Life is better at the beach!

Hi everyone!

Today there's another Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.
It's our weekly challenge wich is always anything goes.

For today I made a card with "At the Beach" background stamp.
You can use it as a background but you can also use it on it's own.


If you are interested in how I coloured this landscape, I've made a YouTube video about that stamp and you can find it HERE.



Thank you for stopping by and I hope you'll find some time to play along!

Smile under the tree!

Hi Make it Crafty friends!
I’m still excited about the new images “The funky girls” by Krista Smith. For the card for today I’ve combined an image of the girls with a background. They are perfect together!
 

It’s so awesome that you can use a close up from a digi and that’s what I did with this background. I used the linker part of the “Tree on Hill” digi stamp and  “Carlie with Giraffe” without the giraffe and let her sit under the tree.
Here are the Copic markers I’ve used:
  • skin: E04, E11, E00, E000
  • hair: Y31, E59, E09, YR14
  • sky: B00, B000, B0000
  • clouds: C3, C1
  • gras: G28, YG09, YG06, YG03, YG00, YG11
  • rocks: W7, W5, W3, W1
  • jeans: BV29, B99, B97, B95, B93
  • yellow: Y17, Y15, Y11
  • leafs: G28, YG17, YG13, YG11
  • wood: E59, E39, E37, E35, E31

The Funky Girls bloghop!!!

Hi Make it Crafty friends,

We are incredibly excited to have a chance to share our love of Krista Smith's gorgeous illustrations with you through Make it Crafty. Zoe has always been an admirer of her designs and it's a great honor to have an opportunity to work with her.
Today, the design team and special guests have added their magic to these gorgeous images to offer you lots of ideas on how you can get creative with The Funky Girls collection
As you soak up the inspiration, leave some love along the way as Zoe will be offering two random commenters a chance to guest on the Make it Crafty team for two months! We want you to come join the fun at Make it Crafty and be part of the team! The winners will receive a package of chippie goodness to play with and access to design and create with images from the digital stamps available in the store. Winners will be contacted on Monday 10th of July to confirm they would like to be our guest.
Chance to become a guest designer!!
So let's get on with the inspiration!
Here's my card featuring the gorgeous Frappe Delight Digi Stamp. I just love her hairstyle so much! Those wavy hairs on one side of her body and in her hand an ice coffee. I first added some pink ink on the white cardstock using a papertowel. The text is from a stampset "One cup at a time" by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.
In the background I've used a disignpaper by Doodlebug and it has little coffeebeans on it, how cute is that! I used some rectangular dies by Crealies for those frames. I added some dots as finishing touch.

skin: E04, E11, E00, E000 hair: E49, R59, R24, R02 eyebrows: E49, E47, E44 bluegreen: BG78, BG18, BG13, BG11, BG10 pink: R39, R85, R83, R81 coffee: E79, E77, E74, E71 yellow: YR31, Y21 blue: B99, B97, B95, B93 green: G46, G43, G40

Lucky Duck!

Hi everyone!

This was my last post at Copic Marker Europe. 
I really enjoyed to be on the team but it's time for something different now.



I've used the stampset Quackers by SugarPea Designs, they are really cute!
First I stamped the ducks and the plants in brown Memento ink on some colouring cardstock.
Then I mapped out the water with a light blue sky colour B000. I drew some clouds with C1 and added some texture to it using C3.


Then I added some more depth in the clouds using C3 marker again.


Then it's time to fill in the blue between and around the clouds using B00 and B000. I always keep it a little bit lighter around the clouds.


I blended the  blue sky colours together using B000 en B0000

The sky is ready so it's time for colouring the water. I used B60 to map that out and I used B37 to go over the lines in the water.



I blended the harsh line out using B34.


And blended again using B32 and added some marks to look like moving water.


I went over it using B37.

Blended again using B34.


And blended again using B32


Blended everything together using B21 and that is the lightest colour.

Then it was time to colour all the other things, like these plants.

The ducks were awesome to colour.

So here you can see the finished project using Copic markers.


I've added some more light using a white Derwent coloursoft pencil. You can do it with any white colourpencil. I also added some white highlights using the Copic Opaque White paint, that finished the colouring.


And here you can see the finished card:

All the colours I've used:
sky: B00, B000, B0000
clouds: C3, C1
water: B60, B37, B34, B32, B21 (+ white colourpencil and Copic opaque white)
ducks: Y17, Y15, Y11/ YR07, YR04, YR02,  YR00
green: G28, YG17, YG13, YG11
pink: RV17, RV55, RV52
brown: YR21, YR23, E37, E35

Thanks for your visit!
