Hot, Hot, Hot Summer Time, time for a sneaky peek of the up and coming new release

Well its the start of the second week of August and the heat is back here in the UK.  It's already been in the 90's this last few days they are saying it could get into the 100's by the weekend.  So I'm staying in with the aircon on and getting some colouring done.  In just over a week (20th) its release day over at Sweet Sentiment Stamps, and I've started to colour up my stamps. This month we have some lovely additions for anyone who has a journal or just wants some cute images.  There is even something for that grumpy man in your life! We are also carrying on with the flower stamps, although its something a little different this month, but just as useable. 




I still have the others to colour up so watch this space x

It's Digital Release Day at Sweet Sentiment Card 2

Image
Here's my DT card for the digital release, this is Naptime.  This card show's just how diverse digital stamps can be as the original is just the bunny and 1 carrot. So I used my graphics program (CraftArtist) and come up with this composition. As you can see I loved that I could have so many different size carrots going in all direction too.  Once coloured I used my Scan'n'Cut to cut every thing out. The sentiment is from a Easter bundle purchased from Design Bundles. I used a small piece of acetate to create a hinge for this card stick between the mats. See the link for details of the stamps, By the way these were coloured with my Tri-Blend Pens as I like to show even if you don't have copic's you can still get some fantastic results.  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/ #sweetsentimentstamps #sweetsentiment #copiccoloring #triblendpens

Digital and hand coloured Card

Image
I've been having a play with the newly released Plans with my Cat digital stamp! I wanted to show that you can mix full on digital and hand colouring together.  In this card the cat has been coloured but the background is all created digitally then printed. I wanted to show that you can produce a background using kits with your computer as maybe you don't have many supplies or just just don't like doing background. I used a digital kit I already had that has the separate embellishments.  Kit used was Polkadoodles Horace & Boo Collection. I use Serift CraftArtist which has been discontinued but a lot still use this fab software.  https://www.sweetsentiment.us/ https://www.facebook.com/sharonscraftyplace #sweetsentimentstamps #sweetsentiment #copiccoloring #triblendpens

New Release Day

Image
Well its that time of the month again when Sweet Sentiment bring out new stamps. I've also moved over to the main DT as it gives me more scope and more designs to play with.   This month I've chosen the Swamped Stamps set as these cute guys.  I also thought this would be good for male cards and Fathers Day isn't that far off.  Aren't these stamps just so cute! My First cards, I've done a splodgy wash background with watercolours and added some splodges too.  The white circles are dies cuts (dies from Carnation Crafts - Eyelet & Ring Collection) and I had some waterdrop beans from my stash. Matted onto a 6in card. This is my second card this time I've got a very faint wash behind the circle die cut I coloured in the characters using Tri-Blend Pens I used my scan'n'cut to cut them out with a 2mm boarder. Matted onto a 6in card.  Come and join the FB group for more ideas and the rest of the new stamps too. https://www.facebook.com/groups/234249981697602
