I Detect A Birthday - Skrappy Challenge


Hi Friends!
Today I have something a little different to share with you. I know I mainly post card creations, but today I am throwing you all a curve ball and I have a tag creation to share with you. I actually created this tag as part of the Scrappy Challenge kicking off today over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I used the It's A Mystery stamp set and coloured up this super sweet guy with my Copic markers. I die cut out a tag using my favourite Tag die and then stencilled over the Tag die cut using the Houndstooth Stencil, Granite Grey Krafty Kolours Ink and the ever so amazing blending brushes. To finish off the card, I added a few black enamel dots.

For the Skrappy Challenge,  you can make Anything BUT a Card! You can make anything you wanna....except a card! So that means bookmarks, gifts, scrapbook pages, journal art, planner pages, tags, boxes...pretty much anything that includes a krafty Kraftin' Kimmie stamp. One lucky krafter will WIN a $20 gift voucher to the krafty shop!
You have a whole month to play along until
Monday, May June 25th at midnight EST!
Also be sure to share your creations on the Krafty Friends facebook page because we LOVE to see your stuff!

Far Out Birthday


Hi Friends!
I had so much fun creating this card and it has become one of my new favourites! First off, I just love, love, LOVE this adorable Ethan image and I had a blast (no pun intended) colouring him up. I used Copic markers and then die cut him out using the coordinating outline die

To create the background, I simply smooshed and dragged a piece of watercolour cardstock through some inks that I had watered down with water...I love the rainbow effect it gives and I feel it really makes the image pop.

To finish off my card, I stamped the sentiment and also used the "Far Out" word die and accented the black wording with a piece of black and white stripped pattern paper. 

I hope you like my card creation for today!

Until Next Time - Stephen
