Glitter, Stencils, and Stickers!

Hello, my name is Angie and I am addicted to outline stickers!  I don't use them as often as I should considering the number of them that I've accumulated.  I recently got a couple sets of stickers that were little garden fairies and rushed home to do something with them.  I decided since they are fairies, coloring them on glitter was the way to go.  I covered some paper with ScorTape, burnished on some glitter, added a few stickers, and got to coloring.

After that, I couldn't decide what to do with them.  So they sat on my desk for a couple of weeks while I figured it out.  Then when I watched on of Darlene's recent videos, I was inspired.  (See her video here.)  I loved the card layout and thought these girls would look great on a hill of their own!

I didn't put any sentiments on so they could be used for whatever.  There was a ton of die cutting involved, some distress inks, colic airbrushing, embossing paste, ad lots of time, but I love this little set of blank cards.

I'm playing along with the following challenges:

Bright Airbrushing

I feel like my Copics have been neglected lately so I decided that I wanted to do something with them, but didn't have the patience to sit and color.  I pulled out the airbrush and just started in.

I picked out the eight fluorescent markers and layer down an air brush based with one of the lighter shades.  Then I grabbed some stencils and just started airbrushing away.  Here's what I ended up with:

Now when I started the airbrushing I had an idea in mind to do a little masking and use black gesso.  So I just kept airbrushing until I was happy with the background.  I cut out the work 'love' from some masking paper on my Silhouette and put that on the pages.  I added some wash tape on the top and bottom of the page and the covered it all in black gesso.  When I removed the masking paper and wash tape, I added a little white paint pen and some scallops with a brush marker to end up with my final page:

Good to feel like I finally got some crafting in!

This is for the challenge over at MarkerPop this week as well.

Happy New Year!

Is your new year off to a good start?  After having some of the in-laws in town for the holidays, I finally had some time to get up to my craft room and have a little fun.

I recently got this adorable stamp at my local scrapbooking store and was itching to color it up.  Here it is:

After coloring the main image with my copics and cutting it into the wonky rectangle,  I stamped it again on some masking paper.  It took me quite some time to get it cut out with all of those little blades of grass, but it was finally cut out so I masked my coloring, added a few cloud die cuts from the same masking paper and airbrushed the sky.  I airbrushed it with a blue copic marker then after removing the cloud masks, decided it needed a little bit of gray, it is raining after all.

I matted it on a larger wonky rectangle, then adhered that to a standard size card that I clear embossed with that amazing background stamp.  To finish it off, I colored a piece of white seam binding with the darkest copic from the flower and added that to the side.  Such a cute mouse!

Thanks for stopping by!
