MISTI for Partial Stamping and A Blizzard

 

 

 

Hello and welcome to My Sweet Petunia Team Tuesdays! Today we have rather an odd card: we are only stamping partial images. My chicken family from the Ink Blot Shop is struggling in some snow. To make the snow I followed an older blog post from Sandy Allnock, the Queen of Copic Coloring, located HERE. This is a very useful technique to have in your Copic or alcohol ink markers toolbox. Using this you can create smoke, blowing snow and blowing dirt amongst other things. 

However, you will need a MISTI. First I placed each chicken where I wanted it on the card panel and picked it up with the MISTI door. I very carefully inked only part of the image with Memento Tuxedo Black. I did this to give the image the appearance of being deep in the snow. I very carefully stamped a couple of the images closely together with my MISTI. 

After stamping the images, I carefully colored them in minding the cutoff points for each image. I then used Sandy Allnock's technique to develop the snow. 

Thanks for stopping by! Get your MISTI out and have some snowy fun!

Butterfly In Bloom

 

Hi card making friends It's Sandi here with a quick and easy card share for you.

I was digging around in my "purchased but not used" bin again and came up with this lovely Butterfly in Bloom by Catherine Pooler. 

I decided it was high time to get it a little inky.  This was a super fast and easy card to make and took me about 20 minutes.  Check the instructions below.

 

How to create the Butterfly in Bloom Card:

Use the Misti to stamp the butterfly image in Hero Arts Intense Black Ink.  

I used my new STICKY MATS for this and they work great. 

Once the ink is dry, color the image with Copic Markers and then cut out with the coordinating die.

 

COPIC MARKERS USED:

Purple:  V13, V15, V17 

 Blue:  B12, B24, B26 

 Teal  BG53, BG45, BG57 

 Yellow:  Y06 

 Green: YG03

Creating the Background:

Spray Pixie Spray onto the back of the Geometric Arces Stencil from Simon Says Stamp and place it over a 4 x 5-1/4 piece of white cardstock.

 (I must apologize, I didn't realize this stencil was retired until I started doing the product list, so I have linked a few others that would look just as nice). 

Use blending brushes to add Simon Says Stamp's Pawsitivily Inks in Surf and Royal.

Next, once you have a nice even blend of color, remove the stencil and add a light layer of ink to get rid of the white between the ink lines. 

Attach this to a top folding A2 White Card Base. Place the card back into the Misti and stamp the sentiment in black. (I really love the font on this sentiment, don't you?) 

Finally, Use foam squares to add the butterfly and embellish with Picket Fence Studios Purple Side of a Rainbow Gem Mix.
