Silent Night Bendi Card

eBrush Design Team: Lisa Somerville Week 1 Cycle 3

Hello and welcome to the Craftwell Blog, Lisa here today, sharing a Christmas Bendi Card using using the eBrush, along with Sharpie and Spectrum Noir Markers and a SVG File from our Sponsor -

Supplies: (some supplies not shown above)

eBrush with Sharpie and Spectrum Noir Adapters
Markers: Sharpie, Spectrum Noir

Silhouette Sheet
Silhouette Die Cutting Machine
Other - White Card Stock, Homemade Stars Stencil, Silver Gems, Dreaming Tree Silent Night Bendi Card SVG Kit (Please note that this SVG File also comes in the Christmas Card Bendi SVG Bundle), Adhesive

Using the Silhouette Cameo, cut all of the pieces from the Silent Night Bendi Card SVG Kit from White card stock. I don't know about you, but I always have a lot of White card stock, and the eBrush makes it easy to add color to the White so I have whatever card stock color I may be looking for!

Using the eBrush and a Silver Sharpie Marker, add color to the stars stencil on the large background cut panel.

Add color to the other cut panels as shown. I like to work on an old Silhouette cutting mat, because it holds my card stock in place while I use the eBrush.

Continue to use the eBrush and Markers to add color to the cut panels.

Assemble colored panels as shown.

Using the Dreaming Tree SVG Files along with the eBrush, makes creating multiple holiday cards a breeze!

Thanks for stopping by the Craftwell Blog, I hope I've inspired you to create Art!

Christmas Dreams!

eBrush Design Team: Peggy Oliver Week 1 Cycle 3

Delighted to have Peggy return!

Hello and welcome! Peggy here to show you my eBrushed Christmas Card with our November Sponsor Dreaming Tree. These little svg's are so easy to make and fold flat to send by snail mail.

Supplies used today are:

eBrush by Craftwell USA

Dreaming Tree SVG file Believe Bendi Card
Electronic Cutting Machine
Spectrum Noir Markers

Designer Paper
White Cardstock

glue/xyron sticker machine
Gesso
Crystal fine sparkles

I downloaded the svg files from Dreaming Tree and cut them on my electronic cutting machine. I used all white cardstock except for the background patterned paper.
Now it's time to color.

I broke out my eBrush and my spectrum noir markers and below you can see the background image. I sprayed with TB8. I made the moon edges darker to create a shadow. Then I sprayed the entire thing to make it all darker. I then needed some falling snow. I used watered down gesso on my brush and sprinkled white all over the surface. The circle for the moon is getting put on a white card base that actually gives the card a translucent moon. If you hold the finished card up to the light you can see what I mean. I sprayed all of my pieces of white cardstock including my leaves.

Here I used my handy Xyron sticker maker to make the fence, that was also eBrushed, sticky.

I used DR3 Spectrum Noir Marker for the fence and my eBrush.

Once all my pieces were colored and glued together with the easy directions from Dreaming Tree it was time to put it all together! Below you can see I used crystal fine sparkles as snow.
