Stampin’ Up! Wild and Sweet for Crafty Addicts

This month for the Crafty Addicts Design Team, I have again used the gorgeous Koala image from the Wild and Sweet stamp set. I just love it, it’s soooo cute! But I promise to start sharing some cards using the rest of images from the set soon.

The background on my card is a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock which has been embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
The koala has been stamped with some Early Espresso Ink, and very gently coloured with Blender pens in Mossy Meadow, Pecan Pie, Early Espresso and some white Craft ink.

I did make a youTube video of creating this card, the lighting is not great but hopefully you can get an idea of how I have made it. And I’ve been working on fixing the lighting situation, I’m going to try that out shortly.

Make sure you check out what the rest of the Crafty Addicts Design Team have made this month, and please feel free to share your creations with us, we love to see what you have been making.
Happy stamping!
Chris

Colour Creations Stampin’Up! Pecan Pie

We are creating projects using the gorgeous neutral Pecan Pie for this week’s blog hop, and I have chosen the sweet koala image for the Wild and Sweet stamp set for my projects.
The first card I am sharing is a very simple one, great for those just starting out in cardmaking and stamping.

I have used a card base of Pecan Pie, with a strip of gingham in the same colour from the Glorious Gingham Designer Series Paper. The white panel is die cut using the Deckled Rectangle Dies, and the koala stamped in Pecan Pie ink. I’ve added a couple of gold adhesive backed dots from the Festive Pearls for a finishing touch.

My second card uses the same elements, and Pecan Pie cardstock base, this time with a strip of the gingham down the right hand side. I’ve used some of the Fluid 100 Watercolour paper with a water brush, and added some Balmy blue and Mossy Meadow ink across the paper. Then once it dried, I have again stamped the koala in Pecan Pie ink, and added some Linen Thread. The focal panel and the gingham layer have all been sponged with Blending Brushes around the edges with Pecan Pie ink.

If you would like to watch the video of how to make the second card you can find it on my youTube channel. You can get a better idea of the colours in the video.
I will also be uploading it to my new facebook group. It is a very new group and I would love to have more of you join us at The Dotty Stampers.

Next on our blog hop is the talented Kate Morgan.

Chris
