I’m popping in with another card using one of Jane’s Doodles latest stamp sets called Daisies. This card is pretty much identical to one of my cards from the last blog hop (which can be found here), but I decided to step it up a bit and create my own plaid background (using the Stripes and Dots stamp set) and changed up the sentiment and the colours.

Thanks for stopping by. I’ll be back again early next week.

Welcome to the latest spotlight blog hop for Jane’s Doodles Stamps. You should have arrived from Vesna’s blog. If you get lost along the way, there is a blog hop order at the end of my post that should point you in the right direction.

Today we are spotlighting the latest two stamp sets to the store called Daisies and Special Delivery. Both sets are very versatile and beautifully designed by Jane herself.

Daisies

 Special Delivery

First up I stamped the daisy stamp onto some white card stock and coloured the image with Copics. I then fussy cut around the flowers before adhering it with foam dimensionals onto a yellow card base.

For my second card, I die cut some clouds from some masking paper. I then sponged on some Salty Ocean distress ink and moved the mask several times to create the cloud scene. The stork and baby were coloured with Copic markers and I then fussy cut around these before adhering them with foam dimensionals.

I’m back with another Penny Black card using some products from their latest release.

I usually create a background like this one with distress inks. But this time I used Kuretake watercolours instead. What I love about these paints is that they are so creamy. I started by wetting some water colour paper with plain water and a paint brush. I then randomly painted on some teals and blues and let the water do the blending. I dried this with my heat tool, before putting some of the watercolours onto my craft mat and adding water to make little pools of colour. I then dabbed the paper into the paint to create the splotches. I did this several times until I was happy with the result.

Once the panel was completely dry, I die cut it with the Penny Black Medallion Creative die. I removed some of the die cut pieces and then adhered the rest onto a card base with some liquid glue. The Hello die cut is from the Penny Black Hello Christmas word set. I really love how it turned out.

Happy Easter! I have a card over on the Jane’s Doodles blog at the moment. It uses the Under the Sea stamp set and the sentiment is from the Hello Friend stamp set. By the way, Jane is having a sale at the moment – 20% off all stamps. Shop here.

After stamping the fish in some waterproof ink, I water coloured the scene using my Kuretake water colour paints. I mixed in some of the white pearlised paint with the aqua paint, and it turned out beautifully. It has a nice lustre and shine to it.

Thanks for visiting. I hope you have a blessed Easter.

Sadly, today is my last post as a designer for Sunny Studio. I have had a blast being on the Design Team for the last 6 months. I am very thankful to Mendi, the owner and designer of all the Sunny Studio products, for allowing me the opportunity to play and have fun with her super sweet products.

This week the team are showcasing the Sunny Borders stamp set. I have used the chevron stamp out of this set to create a fun backdrop for the cute critters out of the Sending My Love stamp set.

I just changed up the colours in the chevrons and also the critter.

I’ve got 2 cards over on the Sunny Studio blog today. The first one uses a set called Sunny Sentiments. It is one of my favourite sets – it has some greats fonts. I masked off a strip and blended in some distress inks. To create the dots, I used a stencil and removed some ink with a baby wipe.

This second card was really fun to make. I had fun mixing and matching different sets – Birthday Smiles, Bundled Up and Sending My Love stamp sets.
