JDS - Salty Kisses and Sandy Toes

Hello and Good Day my dear Crafty Friends!

Today's DT Card is once again featuring the wonderful Jan and her brand new Digital Stamp Set called Sand Box. It was so much fun creating this pretty Mini Slimline Card as it reminded me that Summer is almost here!

Salty Kisses and Sandy Toes

To create this pretty beach scene, I first printed my images and sentiment on Accent Opaque 80 lb Cardstock and then proceeded to add my colors.

Here is the list of Copic, Ohuhu and Distress Oxide used:

Sky: Distress Oxide - Broken China - Using a blender brush and a handmade cloud stencil, I lightly applied ink to the top portion of the panel.

Sea: Copic - B21 and White Gelly Roll 08

Sand: Copic - E33, E35, E37

Bucket: Ohuhu - G1, G2, GY8

Whale: Ohuhu - GG3, GG1, Copic - B21

Sea Shell: Copic - R22, R21, R20

I then glued all my panels together using Gina K Connect Glue. Here are the dimensions of each panels: 

Card Base: Accent Opaque 100 lb - 6" x 7" scored at 3 1/2"

Black Panels: 3 x Accent Opaque 80 lb inked with a black marker - 5 3/4" x 3 1/4"

Top Panel: Accent Opaque 80 lb - 5 5/8" x 3 1/8"

And that completes the card, very easy and quick. You can find this pretty stamps set here in Jan's Digital Stamp Shop.

JDS - I REEL-Y MISS YOU!

Good Morning my Crafty Friends!

Once again, it's time for a card featuring Jan's Digital Stamp Shop using this wonderful set called Gone Fishin. This new set is on sale for the month of April so it's your chance to go grab it.

I REEL-Y MISS YOU!

Today's card was quite simple and easy to do and here is how I did it.

I first sized and printed the Fishing Basket and Rod at approximately 2" x 3.3" on Accent Opaque 80 lb and colored the image with the following Markers:

Basket - Copic: E33, E35, E37

Rod - Ohuhu: G5, G8, G7 and GG1, GG2, CG5

The basket and Fishing Rod were then fussy cut and stacked 3 times to give it a little dimension.

I then proceeded to ink 2 pieces of Hill Shaped cardstock with Distress Oxide Mowed Lawn. The sky was inked using a Cloud Shaped Hand-made stencil and a light touch of Distress Oxide Broken China.

I printed the sentiment and matted it with some black cardstock and then proceeded to assemble the card. Here are my panel sizes:

Cardbase - Accent Opaque 100 lb : 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2"

Black panel - Accent Opaque 80 lb made black with a Black Marker: 5 1/4" x 4"

Sky and Grass Panel - Accent Opaque 80 lb: 5" x 3 3/4"

And that was it, very quick and simple card.

I hope my card will inspire you to create! As always, I encourage you to go check out the Challenge Blog to see the rest of the DT creations.

JDS - Flying by to say Hi!

Hello my Crafty Friends,

Today's DT card for Jan's Digital Stamps was quite fun to do. 

Flying by to say Hi!

I first started by inking seven different cardstock with my Distress Oxide Inks to create my Rainbow. Below are the inks I used:

Pink: Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberries

Red: Candied Apple

Orange: Carved Pumpkin

Yellow: Mustard Seed

Green: Mowed Lawn

Blue: Blue Print Sketch

Purple: Seedless Preserves

I then proceeded to die cut seven rainbows using the Trinity Stamps Slimline Rainbow Builder Die Set and used one piece of each color to create the perfect Rainbow. 

Next step was to die cut my Clouds and to ink my Sky. To do so, I used one of the cloud piece with Distress Oxide Salty Ocean and a Blender Brush to ink clouds here and there on my Accent Opaque 80lb Panel.

For my Hot Air Balloon, I printed this beautiful digital stamp from JDS store called up-UP-AWAY! and colored the image with the following Copic and SN:

Balloon and Basket Fabric - V09, V06, V04

Ribbon - YG95, YG93, YG03

Sweater - IG3, B21, BG01, B000

Overall Pants - IG5, YG95, YG93, YG03

Basket - E37, E35, E37

Skin - E04, E11, E02, E000

Helmet - IG5, IG3, IG1

I have to confess that it was a challenge to color my image as most of my Copics are dry but I managed to mix different shades and for some miracle, my Green lasted until I was done so it all turned out ok.

I then assembled my card and cut my panel to 8 1/4 x 3 1/4 and glued it on a 8 1/2 x 7 top folding cardbase scored at 3 1/2.

The last step was to glue my sentiment.
