So here we go for July'sTheme Week!

Make ANY project using rainbows (papers, colors,, patterns, etc!)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Katya Bess here from KattyXotica's Kreations and I'm here to show you my rainbow card.

I had a blast coloring this image. I did ask for permission from the owner Annie to alter the bangs and

the clothes.... just an F.Y.I. Keep in mind that the owner has the right to say no.... This time Annie was okay with it and I had so much fun coloring her like Rainbow Brite. Did you gals or guys

have any of Rainbow Brite dolls or toys? The Color Kids or maybe even a Sprite?

I only had a Rainbow Brite and I remember she had yard hair.... to be honest that is all I remember of of the doll of yeah and she had a purple star on her cheek. I did watch the cartoons in Spanish growin up but and I found some of the English videos on YouTube and I watch with my youngest daughter

when trying to soothe her and distract her from her severe Eczema itching.

I used Memento Desert Sand ink dye pad to be able to do the "no-lines-coloring" technique

and to be able to alter the bangs and clothes without any masking but if you look 

closely you can sort of see the original lines.

Of course I used Copic markers, Copic multi-liner and a Uni-ball Signo White Broad

(I love Sakura but I wish the white pen was a little more opaque

because I so much prefer how it looks in the end)

For the image I used 

Trudy- Happy Day!

This is how Trudy - Happy Day! looks before the no-lines-coloring technique.

Copic makers I used

E0000, E000, E01, E04, E21, R21 and R30

E33, E35, Y35, Y08 and Y26

V06, R24, B24, G05, YR04 and Y08

(sorry forgot the blues in her eyes) 

the colors look a little brighter in person the blues in her clothing look a little too dark here.

Here you can see here up close.

Here you can see the shimmer on the stars. 

The sentiment I use hand-wrote myself

(I was a bit lazy to see if I even had a color themed stamp. LOL)

and I just colored the rainbow background in carefully

and I only gave it two passes since I was scared they would

bleed into each other. The little stars from from some

My Creative Time dies as well as the rectangle to cut out the layer.

The for the stars I chose colors from the rainbow that I colored then I 

added Wink of Stella clear and letting them dry before I glued them 

on to the card. 

I hope you all really liked all of the cards for the theme week,

rainbows are one of my favorite things to see and color. 

I also hope that you get a chance to work on some rainbow themed cards

using Stamp AnnieThing stamps. 

Thank you for stopping by.

Have a colorful day!

Hey everyone!

JoAnn from JoBoogie Stamping here with a fun card for Rainbow Week! Here's what I created to share with you today!

 

I decided to color up Chloe - Stay Cool because she's just too cute! I personally love popsicles so I thought I would color her up to look just like me too. :)

I paired her up with some fun rainbow themed patterned paper I had in my stash and used a sentiment that included "rainbows" in it and used some Hero Arts Ombre ink too. Clever, don't you think?

I love love LOVE how my card turned out and I hope you did too!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to come back tomorrow for more Rainbow Theme Week fun!

Hi everyone! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug and I have a fun card to share. 

I used the Kelly-Happy stamp set for my Theme Week  have card.

I started this card with a standard A2 card base and added the mat cut with the Jaded Blossom Card Mat Dies.

I created the rainbow but cutting each color using the Stitched Oval Dies and then layered them all together, trimming off the sides so it was straight.

I added the clouds cut with the Spring Dies 2 and stamped the sentiment with the Unicorns and Glitter stamp set.

To finish, I stamped and colored Kelly with Copic markers and pop dotted her to the front of the card.

I hope you will play along with us in our Monthly Theme Week! You can see and post all your projects in our Facebook Group HERE

I hope you all liked my project for today and thanks for visiting!

Have a great day!

Back to School with James

Hello Crafty Friends!

Katya Bess, today I am showing you a card with sort of a school theme. I used the fun papers from Doodlebug Design called: Back to School. The stamp I used is James - Happy Birthday to You. This stamp comes with a sentiment but I did not use it this time. 

James - Happy Birthday to You

 I colored him with Copic markers, 

the eyelights were done with a Uni-ball Signo White pen

and the card sketch is very simple to recreate.

I hope you liked the card.

Thank you for visiting.

Have a nice day.

The Cats Meow

Hello! Melissa from Doxie Mel Designs here on the blog. To make this card I combined two stamp sets, Brittney - Purr and One Cool Cat.  Brittney is colored with copic markers.  You can check out the video below and see how I colored her and assembled the card.  The dies are new to my stash and are from Jaded Blossom, Rectangle Dies 1 (large) and Rectangle Dies 2 (inner panel). I am obsessed with rectangle dies, lol.

 

Here is a video with all the details :)

Thanks for checking out my card today. Hope you stop back soon!

Copic Sketch Colors

Happy Purr-Thday

Hi everyone! This is GiGi from The Cricut Bug and I have a fun card to share. 

I used the Brittney-Purr stamp set for my card.

I started this card with a standard A2 card base and added the mat cut with the Jaded Blossom Card Mat Dies.
I created the center strip by cutting a strip of decorative paper and then added edges cut with the Border Dies to the sides, tying a piece of twine around it.
I stamped and colored Brittney with Copic Markers and pop dotted her to the card.
To finish, I stamped the sentiment from the Party Animal stamp set onto tags I cut with the Mini Tag Dies 2.

I hope you all liked my project for today and thanks for visiting!


Have a great day!

Cupcake Time

Hello Crafty Friends!

It's Katya Bess from http://kattyxotica.blogspot.com and I have a little card to show you with 

Megan - Hey Cupcake.

I always like to play around with different skin tones but I also like to 

try out different hairstyles. With Megan I wanted to try and give her some 

braids. I have tried doing braids on another stamp Megan (Winter Wishes) before but with 

Prismacolor pencils and you can see my process here. 

I think it was a little easier for me to do it with markers

but I also tried a slightly different technique that was a little faster too.

I think in the future I will have to show you my braid process with 

the markers but probably when the kids are in school.... 

like I stated above I colored Megan - Hey Cupcake

with Copic markers.

W5 and W7

E11, B34, E37, E34, R22 and R30

E50, (I forgot which yellow I used for the frosting)

but the barrette, the collar, sprinkles

 and the cherry were done in RV29

The uniform was paper pieced

and all of the design paper was all from 

Echo Park: Birthday Wishes

The card base was with Recollections

Oh yea and I added Wink of Stella

Clear that I finally opened up to add some

shiny sugar to the yellow frosting. :P 

I Hope you liked my card.

Thank you so much for stopping by

Have a great weekend.
