New flowers for the realise weekend

As you may know every month Sweet Sentiment Stamps have a flower stamp realise, and this month its called Calming Clematis. 


Here I've made a DL card using these stamps, I did do a practise run first to get the colours right using my copic's as well for a change. There is also a watercolour wash in the background just to help the flowers pop.


I always swatch my colours out as it makes it easier to keep to the 3 pen blend.

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
