Simon Says Stamp Spring Gnomes

Hello everyone! First of all, I want to know how you're all doing? This COVID-19 situation can be scary and stressful. Finding the things we need is a hassle and creates panic. Let's take a breather, regroup and focus on trying to be positive in between the chaos. Let's craft up a storm and make the best out of it all. Today, I wanted to share a St. Patrick's day inspired card, featuring SSS new stamp set, Spring Gnomes. Such a fun one to color and I think it can be a very versatile set. I also decided to pair it with the Delicate Flowers set, also from SSS. I will be using my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers to color up my images , which you can watch the entire process on my YouTube channel. All product details listed below.

Hello everyone! Happy FRI-YAY! Today I have a fun and easy project to share with all of you featuring tonights OddBall Art Creepy Cute Chronicles newsletter freebie. I begin by printing the image on 70lb Neenah Vellum white cardstock.  I first do a base of color with alvohol markers. I have chosen really stof pastel colors to begin.  Ones the full main imagebis colored, I will also hand draw some paint platter behind the image. I love this look for craft related images. Adds a fun touch. I will add extra color, texture and details with Prismacolor Premiere pencils. The alcohol markers help build up the color and create faster shading and highlights.  I will them trim the cardstock down to size and add some Distress Oxide Black  Soot over the border of the paper. A really quick way to create card covers. How would you color this image? Would you use something bright? Make sure to sign up for tonights newsletter, so you can get...

Hello everyone! I'm back in the studio after a big cross country move, and I'm ready to start sharing! Today i have a fun project and video tutorial featuring images from OddBall Art. I wanted to create a outer space design and images #522 Alexa Oola Intergalactic Superstar and #152 Molly "Ice" Malloco Intergalactic Moon Walker were the perfect pair! I used a program called InkScape to create my overall layout and then printed on smooth white Neenah cardstock. To color the images and background, I used Arrtx Alcohol Markers and added texture with Prismacolor Premiere pencils. You can find the full tutorial by visiting my YouTube channel . Make sure to visit the OddBall website and check out the rest of the wonderful images available. Use coupon code Eny1 to get 1 free stamp set with the purchase of two! Happy crafting!
