Hey there Artie!! Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Make Merry Release Blog Hop - Day 2! Woot Woot!!!
This week has thrilled the whole SSS Creative Family. How exciting to hop along with everyone for Day 2 of the hops!! Thursday night, on Del & Artie Live, I colored in some poinsettia images from Simon Says Stamp called CENTER CUT HOLIDAY FLORAL.
You can watch the coloring sped up here!
The Center Cut Holiday Floral Stamp features a gorgeous poinsettia bouquet with a center circle with an interchangeable pop out sentiment!! I created two cards with this stamp as my focal point.
Card #1 is the Colored Pencil on Dard Cardstock
You can watch the video for details on this cards creation. Here is a list of supplies I used to create it:
First, clear heat-embossed the image on the dark blue cardstock. Then, I added black Copic marker to the shadows and blended blue and white colored pencils over the edges. I stamped the peace center and heat embossed it with some light blue embossing powder.
To finish off the card, I added some Boiled Sugar Jelly Hearts with liquid adhesive.
Card #2 - Full Color Card
To create this card, i stamped the image in Intensified Black Ink. Then, I colored it in with red, green and yellow Copic markers. You can use the Altenew Artist Markers, instead. All the colors you need come in one set for a fraction of the cost of Copics.
I used a 3.5” x 8.5” slimline card I created out of Neenah Solar White Classic Crest 110lb cardstock.
After coloring everything, I used a blender brush and the Mega Deco Stencil from the Make Merry Release to add a green accent on the right two-thirds of the card.
I finished it off with more of the Boiled Sugar embellishments.
Here are the supplies I used to create the Full Color Card.
