Bumble Bee Birthday

Hello everyone! This is Berina here today, with a shaped birthday card.

I made a hexagon shaped card for my son's 1st birthday. We decided to do a bumble bee theme for his first birthday. I love making the banner and decor for my kids birthdays, this one was no exception. I made this birthday card and tag to go with his gift. I used the Create and Craft Hexagon dies to cut the shaped card. The bumble bee and the other a hexagonal lace piece are dies from Spellbinders. I die cut all of these on my SNAP. The sentiment is from Inspired By Stamping. I added a few drops of Nuvo in black. Here's a close up of the card:

The tag uses similar elements, it's just smaller in size.

Here are a few pics of the decor and the cake that I made, from the day.

How do you like my creation today? Do let me know. Thanks for stopping by today. Have a great day!

DT: Christmas Tags

Dear Scrappers,

This is Veronica, from Vicky's Scrapping Passion sharing my post for Craftwell:

For this post, i wanted to share the Christmas tags, I made for my children teachers:

I used some tags from a tag kit from CTMH. This is the original front of the tag:

I stamped the back with the CTMH Virgin Mary and Jesus images, using squid gold ink:

I used my SNAP to die cut the snow globe shapes (die, freebie from Card making Magazine) using foil paper to match the tag kit from CTMH. I used the banners from the kit and stamped the German sentiment for Merry Christmas.

Please make sure to visit my post for further tags ideas, follow me, and browse my blog for more inspiration.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

More Than Unicorns (B-day Card)

Hello! Desiree here to share a simple Unicorn themed,
B-day card. I am totally #TeamUnicorn SO making this card was over due.

Tools used:

Craftwell SNAP machine
Craftwell eBrush
Misc. metal dies from my stash
CTMH Unicorn Dreams (retired stamp set)
Crystal Katana

Materials used:

Black 65lb. cardstock
White 65lb. cardstock
The Paper Studio Stargazer box of cards
Palette hybrid ink in black
Blue and purple Sharpies
Unicorn Party glitter from Target

I started off this card by stamping on my card base, I took
the largest unicorn stamp and got an excellent image stamped! Love that!

Next I took my white paper and cut out a couple of layer pieces. I also stamped a sentiment from the unicorn stamp set on the front cloud.

I thought my clouds could use a little color and so, a lil' eBrush action was called for. I chose a purple and blue sharpie to match my card base. Then I just added a touch of color to the cloud edges. I added some mounting tape to the back of my clouds to add some dimension.
I liked how the unicorn looked against the background of my card. I used my Snap machine and my star and sparkle die set to cut out some stars and sparkles using my black 65 lb. cardstock. I then will arrange and adhere them to my card base.

I used another stamp from my stash to place a Happy Birthday, sentiment on the inside of the card.
I used the Unicorn Party, glitter to adorn the sentiment.

After adhering my stars and sparkles die cuts, I also added some of the glitter to the front of the card too!

Once I was happy with how it looked, I knew the card was complete.

Well, that is my project share for today! I kind of love it!
I hope you do too. I also hope as always, that you were inspired! Best wishes and much crafty love to all of you!

Single layer fun!

Ebrush Design Team: Jan Hunter Week 8 Cycle 3

Hi everyone. Jan here to share a fun single layer card front -- could also be turned into a 6 x 6 canvas with just a few adaptations.....

Single layer cards have been a challenge at times, but this one went together quickly! And it was FUN!

You'll need:
Crazy Birds Stamp set (Sizzix - Tim Holtz)
Water color pencils
Card Stock
staz-on ink (gray)
ink pad (light brown)
watercolor brush
Sentiment stamp (Be a Blessing Collection - Latina Crafter)
Stencil (Puntos - Latina Crafter)
eBrush
background stamp (retired-Stampin' Up!)
Sharpies
Sakura gel pen
Stamp the bird on your card stock. You can go ahead and fill with color as desired. I used watercolor pencils and a watercolor brush to blend the colors. Let dry. If desired, highlight here and there with a Sakura gel pen.

You can stamp and cut a second bird as a mask. Spray the back with repositionable adhesive and lay the mask on the bird.

Now the rest of the fun begins. For my background, I chose a "wordy" background stamp and using some brown ink stamped it on the card - with the mask in place.

Next I picked 3 complimentary colors of markers and using the eBrush and the Puntos stencil added a bit of color randomly... moving the stencil as needed. Stanp your sentiment -- this set offers lots of options....

I also used a marker and the eBrush to edge the cardstock and trimmed it just a tad - this will be matted and placed on an A4 card base for gifting to someone special. How's this for a non-traditional Valentine's Day card?
Hope you'll make some time to do something you enjoy this week. Have fun and do something creative! Feel free to drop by my blog to see more projects created using the eBrush.

Romantic Rose Thank You Card & Free SVG

Ebrush Design Team: Mitsyana Wright Week 11 Cycle 1

Supplies Used

eBrush (Craftwell)

Craftwell's FREE SVG template by Judith Kim

Teresa Collins Cut'n'Boss machine (Craftwell)

Teresa Collins pocket dies (doily, leaves, and framed ticket/ label)

Spectrum Noir Markers (CR3, FS8, GB10, TN7, CG2, DG3)

Moment ink pad (Tsukineko- Tuxedo Black)

Sentiment Stamp (Virginia Turtle- Hedgehugs & Daisies)

12x12 sheet of acetate (overhead projection sheets or tansparencies would work fine)

Light box & stylus

Foam adhesive

Hot glue gun and glue sticks

Double-sided adhesive

Blue painter's tape

Flower stamens

Feathers

First, I downloaded the free SVG file from the Craftwell blog. Then I cut it out of acetate with my digital cutter. I separated and re-sized into 6"x 6" squares. I made sure I used a sharp blade and did a multi cut. At least 2, but 3 times is better. This will make your stencils.

I taped my first stencil down to my work surface using blue painter's tape to hold it securely n place. I then sprayed down my first layer using my eBrush aand Spectrum Noir in CR3. The first stencil was the biggest flower of the templates.

This sis the result after just spraying the first stencil!! Looks good already!

I repeated the steps with second biggest flower stencil and instead of CR3, i used FS8. I know totally different color families... but hey. it works! I can start to see the flower building!! Looks awesome!

For the smallest details of the flower I actually layered 2 different colors on top of each other. I first used GB10 then TN7... Those two blended together to make that reddish brown above. This flower is looking outstanding!!

I saved the leaves for last to make sure the flower lined up properly. For the leaves I also used 2 different greens. Spectrum Noir CG2 and DG3. I ebrushed a base of CG2 then only accented it with DG3 around the edges. AND OH MY... the results... GORGEOUS!!!

Then I took each stencil (one at a time) and layered it over their matching image, taped it to my paper with blue painter's tape, and then flipped it over and used a stylus to emboss and raise the image.

Check out these results!! It gave the flower a lot of POP!! LOVE IT!!

Then with my Pocket Dies from Teresa Collins and my Cut'n'Boss. I cut out my pieces. I cut my doily into fourths... you'll see why in the next pic.

This is how I assembled my card. the doily wasn't big enough to cover the whole back and my rose image would have been completely covered. So this is a good way to fake the appearance of a having a huge die without actually having one!

Check out all the layers and dimension!!

I lastly attached my feathers leaves, and paper rose, Which I also ebrushed with the same Spectrum Noir markers above (CR3 & FS8). I then stamped my sentiment. This is from Virginia Turtle's Hedgehugs & Daisies set. I love the font used... It coordinates with the card perfectly!!

Here is the beautiful end result!! I just love it! I am definitely going to using this stencil over and over! It is very romantic!

Special Thanks to Judith Kim for making such an AWESOME file!!

Hope you all enjoyed this tutorial!

eBrush and Spectrum Noir Fun!

Ebrush Design Team: Jan Hunter Week 11 Cycle 1

Hi everyone. Here's a fun card with a stamped imaged colored in using Spectrum Noir markers. The image is from a set called Stained Glass (CS220L) from the Forever in Time Paper Craft Collection (Etsy) I love the look of Stained Glass, how about you?

You'll need:

Stamp (and an acrylic block)

Memento Ink (black)

Craftwell eBrush (SN adapter)

Spectrum Noir Markers (LY1,LY2, LY3, PP1, PP3, PP4, PP6, LG1, LG2, LG3, IB1, IB2, IG1, Blender)

White Satin Ribbon (8 inches is oodles - from my stash)

Card stock (white card for image and card base, pink card for card front)

Stencil (brocade or other image with flourishes - from my stencil stash)

Stamp image in black ink. Color in using color families as desired, blending as needed. Because the white of the cardstock looked too stark, I filled those areas in lightly with the IG1 marker with just a little more shading around the outer edges and the flowers and leaves. Set aside.

With the ebrush and the SN adapter, select the PP3 and lightly spray around the edges and a bit more on the pink card stock (see photo below). Line up the stencil as desired over the pink card stock and with PP6 in the ebrush, spray about 1 - 1.5 inch into the card stock along one long side. The interior edges should be slightly lighter than the border edge. If you're worried about getting too straight of an edge, add a torn piece of paper between the stencil and card stock and spray. Remove the stencil and set the card stock aside.

Cut a piece of ribbon long enough to wrap around the back of the pink card stock. You can tape down each end.... spray with PP3 as evenly as you can. Since you're using alcohol markers, the ribbon will be dry and ready to use as soon as you put the cap on the marker. The ribbon really is evenly colored. The light reflecting off the ribbon gives it the uneven effect.

Wrap the ribbon around the pink card stock and secure. Adhere the pink card stock to your card base. Using pop dots, adhere the image to the card front, embellish more as desired.

Thanks for dropping by.... hoping you'll enjoy some crafting time today!

PS - I'm leaving my card blank for the moment.... Sentiment and final embellishment to be added later. Drop by my blog to see more projects using the eBrush! Your imagination is your only limitation! In the meantime, have a creative day!

eBrush, Pink and Main, and a whole lot of BLING!!

Ebrush Design Team: Mitsyana Wright Week 9 Cycle 1

Hello Crafty Friends... For today's project I mixed 3 of my favorite crafting things... stamping, ebrushing, and a whole lot of bling!!!

Our wonderful sponsor, Pink and Main, have the most darling stamps... EVER!!

And when I saw this little cute I just knew I had to bring on the bling!! And, I also knew I could make my own awesome "blinged" embellishments to do it too!!

Supplies used

Pink and Main's Party Girl Set

Craftwell's eBrush

Spectrum Noir Markers (CG1, CG2, DG2, DG3, CT2, GB5, OR1,LV2,PL2,PL4, FS1, FS3, GB8,TN7,GB10,GBR1)

Momento Ink Pad -Tuxedo Black

DCWV Adhesive Jeweled Sheet

Ranger White Opaque Pen

Sakura Gelly Roll Pen- Stardust- Clear

Faber-Castell PITT artist pen- XS

Sizzix Steel Rule Dies (photo corners)

Sizzix Sizzlits (ribbons)

Sharpies ( yellow, orange)

Personal Die Cut Machine

Scotch Adhesive Tape

Cardstock

Patterned Paper/ Cardstock

Watercolor Paper

I first stamped my image on watercolor paper using my Momento ink pad in Tuxedo Black.

Then colored my image in with my Spectrum Noir markers. I added eyelashes to my little girl with my Faber-castell PITT pen and added highlight to my colored image with my gelly roll pen and my white opaque pen.

Then I die cute 4 photo corners out of my bling (adhesive jeweled sheet) and ebrushed them with my Spectrum Noir Markers in LV2 and PL4 & DG2 and DG3. Then mounted them onto black cardstock.

I also hand cut a fluer de lis shape out of more bling. I wanted it to be two-toned so I ebrushed in yellow and orange and also backed it with black cardstock.

Then I cut die cut strip from my Ribbons Sizzlit die out of purple, yellow, and green carstock. I ebrushed half the strips in the coordinating Spectrum Noir markers.

Then I assembled all my pieces to create my Mardi Gras themed card!!

and tah-dah...

Very bright and festive!!

I loved being able to make my own "blinged" embellishments so much I did another card with more ebrushed bling!

Check out this other cutie from Pink and Main... this one is from the Pretty Princess set.

I paired this little princess with a cute little buttoned shabbie, and a pretty pink blinged frame and purple feather ( which both were also ebrushed)!

CUTENESS!!

I love it! I hope you did too!

Thanks for stopping by!!
