Making Holiday Memories

 Good morning, I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and didn't over eat!

My post today is sharing one of the adorable bears from the Making Memories Digital collection. There are 3 sweet bears and some great sentiments:



Rather than add him onto a card I made him into a card. I resized him and printed him onto stamping card. He was colored with alcohol markers and glaze pen added to his eyes and nose. I then used my scan n cut to cut him out, I kept the cutting lines on my machine, added an offset and cut 2 more images in grey card. One of these was scored at the base of his antler headband and both grey sections were glued together by the antlers making a card base. I then added my bear - he can now stand up!


Here's a view of the card back so you can see how it works!

Best wishes

 Good morning! We still have amazing summer weather, I just wish it would cool down a bit!

I'm here today with more inspiration from the Joy Clair August new release. My card today is using the Prized Life digital Stamp Collection. I chose to demonstrate how you can still do no line coloring with digital stamps.

I placed the image and sentiment into a graphics program and resized them. I then reduced the opacity on the image to 50% this gave a me a light grey image instead of the black lined. I then printed onto stamping cardstock. I colored the image with Copic markers ensuring that I covered all the grey.

Once my image was colored I matted a black card base with a green cardstock that coordinated with the green leaves. I added my image and finally scattered a few enamel dots on my card.
