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.

Hi Friends and today we get to kick off another fun Krafty Challenge!

I want you all to play along and would love to see your creations!

This week is all about....

SNOW!!

I coloured up the Fairy Loved stamp set and made her into a Winter Fairy. I had a lot of fun turning this spring image into a winter one. I used the Krafty Kolours inks in Bubbly Blue and Mermaid Melody to ink blend the background as well as to tint the texture paste into a matching blue colour. I then applied the texture paste onto the Sparkling Snowflakes Stencil and added a few iridescent sequins to finish off my card.
