Winter Card With Mitten Stamped & Colored Background

The design team has been sharing previews of the upcoming new release for Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.  For my project today, I've created a stamped background using the new Mittens stamp that will be featured in the new release.  Scroll down as I share special tips for creating this A2 sized top fold card.

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)

To begin, I trimmed a 4x6 inch piece of Neenah Solar White card stock for stamping my images, using my Misti stamp positioner.  I wanted a more subtle appearance so I chose my Catherine Pooler Ink in Sand Castle.  I simply staggered my stamps in diagonal rows until my paper was filled.

To color my images, I used my Jane Davenport markers from the Mermesmerizing set and Feathered Friends set (Fairy Wren, Dodo, Egg and Bluebird).  I also embellished with a white gel pen for a snowy appearance, and used my Kaisercraft glitter and gel pens on my ribbon string.  You'll find links to most of  the products that I've used, at the end of this post.

I thought it would be fun to bling up my mittens even further, so I added some sequins and bubble gems from Buttons Galore from the Island Breeze sparkletz collection and Shades of Chambray shaker mix.

My quote is from the Echo Park Paper Hello Winter collection and it's popped up on foam circles from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  I also have a lace and ribbon focus on top of my stitched die cut panel using Pretty Pink Posh dies.

Thanks so much for stopping in today!  Look for the new release coming soon!  Be sure and hop over to the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Blog for information on the current promotions we have going on.  See you next time..... Terri

Blog Hop with Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps and Imagine Crafts

Hello cardmakers.  Today is Day 1 of a 2 day blog hop with Imagine Crafts and Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps!  If you've been following along, you should have arrived from Iris Rodriguez's blog.   There's several prizes up for grabs so be sure and comment at all the blog stops along the way to qualify to win.

Imagine Crafts was so kind to allow us to choose some yummy inks to play with.  I chose to work with the Brilliance Pigment Ink Dewdrops.  They dry quickly but also stay wet long enough to heat emboss, if you so desire.

For my card, I chose to use a smooshing technique with a watercolor paper panel.  I mixed some of my colors too, to get an orange-ish hue, as well.  The colors I'm using today are Rocket Red, Sunflower yellow, Coffee Bean, Pearlescent Chocolate, Cosmic Copper, Pearlescent Rust and Moonlight White.  To achieve the orange hue, I mixed the yellow and red together.  This is such a fun technique and always gives great results,  just dab your ink on a craft mat, spritz with water and smoosh your watercolor paper into the mix.  I did this twice, drying with me craft heat tool inbetween smooshing.

For my one-liner word, I masked my sentiment and stamped with my Misti, the word "procaffeinating" from the Procaffeinating stamp using the Brilliance Moonlight White ink, heat embossing with white embossing powder to really make it pop.  I used a leftover piece from my trimmed watercolor panel to stamp and heat emboss part of my sentiment on the inside.  I heat embossed, using the Cosmic Copper for the inside sentiment.

To color my coffee, I stamped the cup with the Pearlescant Chocolate, then used the Copper Rust for the Coffee Heart stamped image (inside the cup).  I dabbed some of the Coffee Bean and Chocolate ink on a craft mat and used my waterbrush to mix and swirl the colors.  A touch of Moonlight White was used on my hearts.

I have shopping links to most of the products used today, further down.  Next, be sure and hop on over to Jennifer Vanderbeek's blog.  If you get lost or need to start at the beginning, visit  the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps blog.  Thanks so much for stopping by and good luck!
