A blizzard of hugs

blizzard hugs lucilight

Hallo allemaal! Zoals jullie misschien wel weten hou ik van schattige plaatjes, de Winter Hugs set was dus weer ideaal voor mij :D.

Hello everyone! You might know that I love cutesy images so the Winter Hugs set is a great set for me :D.

Voor deze kaart heb ik een pinguin en ijsbeertje ingekleurd met alcohol markers. Ik had nog achtergrondpapier liggen met bijpassende pinguins dus die heb ik hierbij gebruikt. Ik heb wat cirkels gestanst uit bijpassend papier en zo wat laagjes gemaakt voor mijn kaart. Ik hou ervan als kaarten meerdere lagen hebben, maar moet zelf altijd een beetje zoeken naar de juiste manier om het ook toe te passen.

For this card I colored one of the penguins and one of the bears with alcohol markers and cut them out. I had a patterned paper with little penguins that was perfect for these cute images. So I decided to die cut two circles out of patterned papers with similar colors and to create a couple of layers with patterned papers behind the images and the stamped sentence. I love layering on cards but I'm still learning how to use it on my own cards.

Today I made two cards; one with Snow Much Fun and the other one with Poinsettia Greetings.

Let's start with Poinsettia Greetings. I stamped the image on watercolor paper and colored it with Gansai Tambi watercolors. I did a light wash of the colors the first time. You can still see that effect in the blue background. But the colors turned out a bit too dull so I decided to add another layer of color to the poinsettia. I heat embossed the image before I started coloring it with gold embossing powder, this made it a lot easier to color.

I stamped the words 'Peace & Joy' with blue ink on a small white piece of paper and distressed the edges of the paper with the same blue ink. I adhered everything to a white card base, added some sequins and that's it.

For the second card I used 'Snow Much Fun'. I stamped the snowman on marker paper and colored it with alcohol markers. I cut out the image and looked for a couple of matching papers. I stamped the greeting from Poinsettia Greetings and added gold embossing powder to that too.

I hope you're inspired to create. And have fun on the blog hop! The next blog on the list is Lyn Tomlin.

Hello everyone! Today I want to show you two cards I made with the stamp set fur-ever friends.

You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you'd like me to take it with my next order) or at Sweet 'n Sassy stamps.

Ik heb de plaatjes weer ingekleurd met alcohol markers en daarna uitgeknipt. De gouden accenten van vorige week waren me wel bevallen bij de bruintinten dus dat heb ik er voor deze kaarten ook ingehouden.

I colored the images with alcohol markers and cut them out. I liked the golden accents from last week so I used them for these cards too.

Dit keer heb ik alleen wel voor een groene achtergrond gekozen; die vond ik wat leuker passen bij deze plaatjes.

This time I used a green background; I thought it fitted these images pretty well.

En om het bosthema nog even door te zetten heb ik houten elementen gebruikt naast de sequins.

And to continue the forest theme I used wooden elements next to the sequins.
