Hey! I'm thinking About You!

 Good day my friends!  Popping in to share a project with you today for Artful Angel using the Hey Hey Hey stamp set from Catherine Pooler.



This is such a versatile stamp set!  It can be used for masculine or feminine cards, for children or adults, and even seniors!

For this card, I chose a more masculine color palette and created a plaid background with my Copic markers.  I stamped the large empty Hey sentiment and also colored it with my Copics and then deepened the shading with my Prismacolor Premiere pencils.
To finish it off, I added another sentiment and some of my favorite enamel dots.


Have you joined the Artful Angel Takes Flight Facebook group yet?  We have loads of fun and inspiration going on in there!

Season's Greetings with Joy Clair Designs

 Are we there yet?  Not quite, but we're getting closer!  I have created a fun Christmas card to share with you today featuring the Merry & Bright digital stamp set from Joy Clair Designs.


Do you know what draws me to digital designs the most??  It's the fact that I can make them whatever size I want!  Sometimes I like to create a scene with multiple images, and sometimes I like to choose one image and print it out as big as I can to have it fit on a card.  This is what makes them so much fun!  Plus, if you are an alcohol marker or pencil colorist, any ink jet printer will do the job.

This image is from the Merry & Bright digital stamp collection and I have colored it with my Copic markers, layered it over some patterned paper and added a sentiment from the same digital stamp set.

Digital stamps are so versatile.

That's all for me today my friends, I will see you again soon!

Merry & Bright with Joy Clair Designs

 I am back and hopefully fully on the mend!  The white stuff is starting to layer on the ground and I am well on my to meeting my Christmas card goal!  I am sharing a fun Christmas card with you today featuring the Merry & Bright digital stamp set from Joy Clair Designs.


I printed the present image in this digital stamp set large like I love to do lol.  I colored it with my Copic markers and popped it up on some dimensional adhesive.  I layered it and the sentiment from the same set over some banners I cut from patterned paper.  Lastly I added a bow made from teal colored string and some enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs.

I will see you again soon...I'm going to play in the snow!

Christmas Wish with Joy Clair Designs

 I am back again today, yes, it's catchup day after being down and out for the last two weeks with Covid.  And sadly, now my daughter is also recovering.  Anywho...I am back to share a Christmas card with you today featuring the Christmas Wish digital stamp set from Joy Clair Designs.

 

I colored this skiing Santa with my Copic markers and then layered hi over some die cut patterned paper to look like a hill.  Not everyone has a white Christmas like we do up here in the North, so I thought it would be fun!  I added some die cut snowflakes to mix it up hahaha.  I layered up the sentiment on some dimension to give it interest and finished it off with some of my favorite enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs.

I am all caught up with Joy Clair projects, so I will be back on the 19th to share another fun Christmas card with you!  See you soon;)

Thank You For Your Kindness with Joy Clair Designs

 Kindness.  The word means so much.  But do we think to say thank you for it?  Sometimes I wonder if many people do.  I have created this card to say just that!  I created this Copic-colored Thank you card using the Potted Succulents digital stamp set from Joy Clair Designs.

HLS ATC August Challenge...Time!

It's time for a new ATC Challenge at HLS!  The theme this month is "Time" and I have created another bundle of ATCs :)



I started these just as I usually do, with a big piece of bristol or mixed media paper.  Then I added some Dr PH Martins Hydrus watercolors and let them move around.  Next I did some stamping and then I cut them down to size.  I got 8 ATCs out of this sheet of paper and I kept the little extra pieces to add as embellishments to these cards. 

After I cut them to size, I distressed the edges with distress inks and heat embossed the text which comes from a stamp by Tim Holtz.  Then I layered on some embroidery thread, and the extra bits of paper which I also added three brads to.  I think the brads give a nice finishing touch.

Thanks for stopping by to visit, I will have more projects for you again soon!
