Sending Hugs and Crokisses Card

Hi there!
Samantha here, and today I'm sharing a pretty, encouraging floral card!

 

     

I really love those crocus flowers! And it's been a while since I colored them up! 

Let's make this card together!
- I started by stamping and coloring the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers! It's hard to tell, but each flower is colored a different shade of red/pink!
- once they were all dry, I added some details with a white gel pen, and then fussy cut them out
- I used Blueprint Sketch, Wilted Violet and Peacock Feathers Distress Inks to create the ink blended background.
- then I placed the stencil on top, and used the same colors, but with more pressure, to ink blend again!

- I also splattered some water and ink color on the background, too!
- I finished by adding some clear droplets on the flowers, which totally reminds me of dew!

This card wouldn't be too hard to make one layer! You could stamp the flowers, mask them off, ink the background, then color the flowers! But I popped up 2 with foam tape, because I love dimension! lol!

I used the beautiful Crokisses stamps set, and for the background, I used the cool and graphic Diagonal Grid!

    

There is ALWAYS a fun challenge going on in the Create a Smile Stamp Facebook group page! It's fun and filled with prizes! I love seeing all of the incredible, unique and amazing inspiration!

Under My Umbrella

Hi everyone and welcome back to our creative space! 

Raluca here with a brand new card showcasing a combination of newer and older stamp sets from Create a Smile Stamps shop.

I love using soft backgrounds and bold colored images. This cute mouse was perfect for my idea!

* First I die cut a white panel using the largest rectangle die from the Cool Cuts Double Stitched Rectangles set. 

* Next I created the background using some cheap watercolors and a flat paint brush.

* After the background dried I stamped the Cling Cloudy Day on the top part of the panel and the florals from the Clear Floral Decorations on the bottom part. Under the clouds I added some rain drops from the Clear Sweater Weather and I love how it looks.

* On a white panel I stamped the adorable unicorn from the Clear Sweater Weather and colored it with Spectrum Noir markers. * After the coloring was done I fussy cut the image and mounted it on the card.

* On the top half I stamped a sentiment from the Clear Sweater Weather using black ink and mounted the panel on a white card base.

* I glued a few clear sequins and my card was done.

I had so much fun creating this card and I love combining different products. All the Create a Smile products coordinates beautifully and I hope that you'll take a look at your stash and decide to use more products for one project cause it's really fun!
