Blending Colors with Gamsol: CS Take It Make it Challenge

Hello everyone!!  I’m here today with CS Take It Make It Design Team for our CS Take It Make It: Take a Stamp Challenge for the month of November.

This month’s theme is Take a Stamp!!  That means take any stamp and create something, anything goes!! Now if that isn’t easy, I’m not sure what is!!

Take a look at my card:

merry-christmas-timi

Here is a close up of the gingerbread man:

This Neat and Tangled Beary Merry stamp set is so cute and I had to use it for this challenge.  This bear is so cute and the fact that he can hold the different objects in the stamp set makes it even better.

I used Prisma Color Pencils to color in the bear and the gingerbread man.  The colors I used were Goldenrod (PC1034), Light Aqua (PC992), Chocolate (PC1082), Warm Gray (PC1050), Cool Gray (PC1059) and Crimson Red (PC924).

I used Gamsol to blend all of the colors out.

Then I used a PenBlade to trim one of the bears hands so that he could hold the gingerbread man.

I lifted the bear’s hand slightly and slide the gingerbread underneath it.  He stayed put.

Nice and easy!

Sooooo, what do you think? Please let me know below.

We have two prizes to offer this month, the first is our sponsor prize. This winner will be chosen randomly from all of the entries in the challenge! The sponsor for November is: The Artistic Stamper!

Stamping on Pattern Paper

Hello everyone!!  I am here today with CAS(E) this sketch!!  I haven’t had a chance to play with them in awhile, so happy I can today.

CAS(E) This Sketch #116 was done by Leigh Penner.  Take a look at her sketch:

CTS_Sketch_116When I saw this sketch, I know immediately what I stamp set I wanted to use.  Since I have all of this “new stuff”, I figure why not use it!

Take a look at my card:

Bear Hugz

Oh baby!!  Isn’t this the cutest bear you’ve seen!  I want a hug from him!!  What about those dies that is behind him?  Totally awesome, right!!

Here is how I created this card:

1.  I started out with Simon Says Stamp Fog cardstock.  I cut it to an A2 size card, 4.25 x 5.50.

2. I used 2 of the bigger dies from Lil’ inker designs Wonky Squares Die to die cut Lawn Fawn Let’s Polka, Mon Amie pattern paper and Neenah Solar White cardstock.

3. I stamped Simon Says Stamp Make A Splash Set to stamp my little bear and used the coordinating die to cut it out.

4. I used Copic marker R24 and colored his heart in.

5. I added all of the pieces with foam adhesive.

6. I added Your Next Stamp Crystal Clear Gumdrops for added interest.

So what do you think?  Please leave me a comment below!!

I’m also linking my card up to Darnell’s NBUS Challenge #4.
