Your Next Stamp Birthday Blog Hop!!!

Posted in August 2015, Your Next Stamp Blog Hop by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!! Yayyy, my second blog hop featuring new products from Your Next Stamps tickles me pink!!

If you’ve been hopping along, you would have arrived from Deborah’s blog and if you’d like to start from the beginning, you can click on over to the linky at the bottom and start at Jeanie’s blog.

I’m over the top excited about this birthday blog hop and this great release! All of the sets and dies are amazing!! My favorite one is the Cute Alpha Stamp Set and die! I used that set on one of my cards below.

Are you ready for my big reveal? I made two cards to inspire you!

Take a look at my first card:

I have to admit, I’m not a dog or cat fan. I’m totally afraid of them but this card makes me change my mind for just a minute, LOL. I love the how this card turned out. I also love how this stamp set comes with so many small pieces that can be used for so many different card looks.

YNS Supplies: Phoebe with a Wagon Stamp Set and Die Set

Other Supplies: Neenah Desert Storm Cardstock, Black and White Cardstock

Take a look at my second card:

This is my favorite card. I created this card for my daughters new teacher. It’s a back to school card that my daughter will give to her new teacher. I really thing she will enjoy this.

I love making shaker cards. They are super fun and interactive. For this card I decided that I wanted the entire card to be a shaker card. I created the watercolor panel and didn’t want to add anything to it. So I decided to project it behind the plastic.

Check out my process:

I used Versamark Ink and inked up my entire stamp set without taking the stamps off of the sheet they came on. That allowed me to keep letters and numbers nice and even.

After I stamped onto the watercolor paper, I added embossing powder and heat set it.

I used my paint brush and added a good amount of water to the watercolor paper. Then I added my distress ink colors one at a time to the watercolor paper. I did two watercolor washes, heating setting in between each wash. I totally love how this turned out. How could you add anything directly on top of it? So the only way to decorated it with out touching it was to create a full shaker card.

My daughter did write on the back of the watercolor panel before I sealed it in the plastic. I blocked out both names to protect them. I just wanted you to see what the back looks like.

My daughter loves how this card turned out.

Lets take another look at the card:

YNS Supplies: Phoebe with a Wagon Stamp set and die, Cute Alpha Stamp set

Other Supplies: We R Memory Keepers Tool Bundle, Lucy Abrams Just Peachy Sequin, Copic Markers R27, Y17, C3, Vellum, Versamark Ink, Hero Arts White Embossing Powder

So what do you think? I had so much fun creating these cards to inspire all of you and show you the versatility of the stamp sets! Which one of these cards are favorite? I would love to hear from you!

So Suzy Stamps April Release Blog Hop

Posted in April 2015, Blog Hop, So Suzy Stamp Release, So Suzy Stamps Challenge by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!! I’m here with So Suzy Stamps. Welcome to the full reveal and blog hop of So Suzy Stamps April Release!! If you arrived here from So Suzy Stamps blog, then your on the right track. If you arrived randomly, the blog hop starts at So Suzy Stamps blog. Yuu don’t want to miss out on any of my design team members cards. They did a fabulous job.

Check out the card I created for this hop:

I used the Girl on the Swing Stamp to create my card. This little girl is so cute. I had to take my time and color her.

I have to admit I messed up just a little bit. Instead of using my new MFT Hybrid Black Ink or my Memento Black Ink, I used the VersaFine Black Onyx and stamped my image.

Big no, no! The black ink bleeds. When I realized what happen, I was already to far gone with my coloring. I just took my sweet time and tried not to touch the stamped edge.

That was hard to do. The image is so intricate that I had to get really close. Never again will I make that mistake!!

In any case, she turned out well. This card is a very CAS card. Your attention is drawn to the girl on the swing.

Here is how I created this card:

1. I cut my cardstock to 4.25 x 5.50 scored at 4.25.

2. I used Simon Says Stamp Stitched Circle Die to cut out my circle off of the side of my card front.

3. I stamped my So Suzy Stamps Girl on the Swing image inside the circle cut out.

4. I used Copic Markers to color my image:

Dress, shoes and antennas: V01, V04, V06

Winks: BG11, BG13, BG15

Swing Bench: E13, E15

Swing String: C3

Skin: Eoo, E11

Hair: E33, E35

5. I attached Stampin’ UP! Coastal Cabana Bakers Twine to the top of my card.

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

7. The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp Whatnot Sentiments Set.

I did a sneak peak of one of the new stamps a couple of weeks ago. Check out that card here.

Easy Peasy!! Now its your turn to play along with us! Oh wait, I didn’t tell you what the new challenge will be this month!!
