Scrappy Boy Stamps Heroes of the Universe Card

Hello friends! Today I have a boy...well, it could be a girl card too. I have a niece who LOVES Spiderman. We will just say it's a little more masculine than the cards I usually make. 


The card design, I cannot take credit for. I was inspired by Jennifer Dove. After asking her permission, I made a similar card. I just used a different image and different papers.

The Film Strip Die I used is from Whimsy Stamps. All the other cuts were done on my Cricut. It had been a long while since I pulled that thing out. 


Supplies Used:

 Copic Colors:
Red: R59, R46, R24
Blue: B39, B37, B34
Black: T10
Grey: T4, T2, T0

Good morning crafters! Popping in to share my 4th card using the Scrappy Boy Stamps Cinderella Stamp Set. I am never going to get tired of this set!

I am also loving Cinderella in purple. It is my favorite color. You can color Cinderella with me following along with this video. https://youtu.be/INIDXKvOU1k In the video I am using a different color combination, but it is the same technique no matter what combination.

Distress Oxide Inks
broken china
tumbled glass
mowed lawn
twisted citron
spun sugar
dusty concord
wilted violet

Junk Journaling with Stamps From Copictopia Creative

 Good morning friends! I started a new craft! Junk Journaling. Thanks to my 16-year-old. She had been talking about Junk Journaling and telling me that she thought it would be fun to do. Me being a mom and always looking for a way to connect and spend time with my kids, thought this would be something that we could do together. I immediately jumped online to do some shopping. 

We had a lot of fun creating our first pages together. Here is my first page...


I decided to make my junk journal for my granddaughter Auoroa. (We call her Rori) I am going to document her first year. 

What I love about junk journaling is not only the time that I get to spend with my daughter, but I can combine my love for coloring with my new craft. 

The sweet little elephant stamp is in the New Arrival Elephants Clear Stamp Set...a brand-new stamp set from Copictopia Creative. It's actually debuting today! You can preorder this stamp from now until the 29th. 


Take a look at this set! So freaking Cute!! I love it for new arrivals, but you could definitely us this set for many other occasions. 


(picture and coloring from Cristena Bagne. Owner of Copictopia Creative)

I found the  Junque Journal at YellowPaperHouse on Etsy. This journal has cute patterned papers throughout the entire thing. My favorite part...it has watercolor paper too! You know I'm gonna have to try that out!! 

Copic Colors
W5, W3, W1, W00, R81, R83, R85


Don't forget Copictopia Creative is having a Retreat in May! You can attend in person or online. It's an awesome experience. Especially if you can attend in person. You always make new friends at these events! Also, Cristena gives out the BEST goodie bags! Sign up HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit! Have a craftastic day!! Hugs, Tina

Scrappy Boy Stamps Magical Cinderella Card

 Hello friends! It's been a hot minute since I have crafted or written a blog post. My first grandbaby was born in March of last year. I have been spending lots of time loving and snuggling with her.

It's so nice to be doing a little bit of crafting again though. I will be doing some guest designing for Scrappy Boy Stamps and for Copictopia. I am super excited to work with both of these companies! 

Now, on to my first project for Scrappy Boy Stamps



It's Cinderella!! I absolutely love this New Cinderella stamp set! When Sean (owner of Scrappy Boy Stamps) and his design team saw this they wanted a video. I couldn't disappoint! Here it is! https://youtu.be/INIDXKvOU1k


In the video, I take you step by step through coloring this adorable image. Each color Copic marker is listed below and in the video description for you. If you don't have the colors I've used that's ok! Practice the techniques I've used with a different color combination. Play around and get to know your markers a little bit better. 

The papers I used for the card are from Scrappy Boy as well. They are so cute! 

I am a big fan of square cards. They make the perfect little canvas. I start out with a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch white card base. I don't really measure anything from there. I just wing it. I know that will drive a lot of you crazy. Sorry about that. 

Supplies:

La-La Land Crafts Long Flags Die

Copic Colors: 
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, RV21, RV23
Hair: YR24, YR23, YR20, YR31

Kangaroo Tag

 Hello everyone! Today I am playing with pencils. Prisma colored pencils. I actually started out using colored pencils. Not Prismas, it was a cheap brand of watercolored pictures. I just used them dry. 

The adorable stamp set I used is from Alpaca Pals. Ever heard of them? I hadn't until about a month ago. My friend Cathy turned me on to them. OMG!! They are so stinking cute! 



So cute that I had to make an order right away. A very large order! Lol! 


Look at all these goodies! It was my birthday gift to myself. I bought these stamps with pencils in mind. I think they are perfect for learning to color with pencils. 

I have been wanting to use my pencils more. I want to get to know my pencils like I know my Copics. It's going to take a lot of practice! 

And on that note, I am off to color! Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a craftastic day! 

Hugs,
