Glitzy Glitter

By KariV on July 25, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hi there! It’s the final Day (day 5) of MFT Camp Create and the challenge is Glitzy Glitter. For this one, I pulled out my all-time favorite Seagull stamp.

I love that little seagull. I colored him up with Copics and added white dots for some fun detail. The “ocean” is made with glitter paper cut into wave shapes, and behind that seagull is even MORE glitter paper in silver. I created an Oval dry embossed behind the seagull to highlight this critter even more.

I hope you have enjoyed this week of creating with Camp Create! I officially have completed all FIVE DAYS! Here’s my badge for today.

It was a wonderful week at Camp Create! A big thank you to My Favorite Things Stamps for the challenges!

See you next time!

Sensational Sliders

By KariV on July 24, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hi there! It’s time for Day 4 of MFT Camp Create, which brings us to slider cards! I have to admit, I don’t make very many slider cards right now, but when I do make them I LOVE them!

Today I tried a new technique of a HIDDEN slider and it’s pretty slick! I learned this from the MFT video for today’s challenge.

Don’t you like how this hula girl dances across the card! Lol. I love it. I cut out the word “Aloha” from MFT alpha dies and colored them with copics to match her outfit.

I made the card background pretty simple on this one, with some ink blending and copics, but I wanted to concentrate on that slider element.

Here’s the badge I earned for today:

Thanks for stopping by! Aloha!

Spectacular Shakers

By KariV on July 23, 2019 in Paper Crafting

It’s Day 3 of MFT Camp Create and that means SHAKER CARDS! I love shaker cards and this time I inked up those mermaids with Copics. I forgot just how much I enjoy coloring mermaids!

I tried a new way to color up their tails and I like how it turned out…gives quite a bit of texture. For the background of this card, I used an MFT stencil to ink on some Distress Oxides in mermaid colors. Then I used some Glitter embossing powder over the entire panel! Can you see that glitter?

Those shaker pieces are so much fun (from Trinity Stamps!) and I love the shine they have. Perfect for a shaker mermaid card!

Here’s the badge I earned for today:

I hope you enjoyed this shaker mermaid card today!

Remarkable Resist

By KariV on July 22, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m participating in MFT Camp Create Day 2, which means emboss resist technique!! I Love this technique and I had a great time making this card.

I used the Roses Background Stamp and embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I used a makeup brush to ink on some Distress Ink in my favorite color: Peacock Feathers! [Side note: I was going to use a traditional rose color, but that turquoise was just calling my name!]

The striped paper is the FAMOUS paper from MFT that is all black and white. Love that paper pad!

Here’s the badge I earned for today:

Hope you enjoyed my turquoise roses today!

Wonderful Watercolor

By KariV on July 21, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m participating in MFT Camp Create challenge! It’s Day 1 and that means watercolor cards!

It’s been a while since I’ve watercolored with Distress Inks, so I thought I’d give it a go today on my images. For the background I used Gansai Tambi so I could get a bright, vibrant sunset!

I set the background first to dry before starting in on the images. That fence is a die from My Favorite Things that I’ve had in my stash for AGES!! I love that I got to use it on my cowboy card today.

Isn’t he cute! I originally watercolored his hat with brown (Vintage Photo), but I felt like it washed his face out too much, so I went over it with Black Soot Distress Ink.

Here’s my badge I earned for today!
