My Favorite Things MFT Squeeze The Day

Jenoblade is my favorite illustrator with the My Favorite Things team. I just love the chubby adorable critter sets she creates – and each set has supporting images to easily create many different scenes.

This card was inspired by one of the design team members projects (nickynoocards) from the release. And with summer just around the corner here in the Pacific Northwest I was inspired to create with this set as soon as I got it.

I very often make cards with no sentiment so that I can keep them on hand for whatever occasion may come up.

This stamp & coordinating die set is available on the My Favorite Things website now – thanks for taking the time to stop by! 💛

Lawn Fawn Hello Sunshine with Spectrum Noir Markers

It’s been absolutely gorgeous in Vancouver this winter, temperatures hovering around 10 degrees since January while the rest of east coast has been getting tortured with insane amounts of snow and crazy cold temperatures!

That is what inspired me to make this card from Lawn Fawn, using their Hello Sunshine stamps & coordinating dies.  I have been coloring with my Spectrum Noir markers and I have been really starting to get the hang of it. While I still have tons to learn, I was happy with the way these little tweety birds turned out so I knew I had to use them on a card right away!

Crazy for Coloring!

Coloring.  Not just for kids anymore!  I just recently acquired a set of 48 Prismacolor markers.  These are very similar to Copic markers – they are alcohol based ink which allows for blending and non-streaking when filling in.

Thanks to the brilliant Darlene Devires and her tutorial post showing step-by-step instructions on how to color with copics markers (or Prismacolor in my case) I was able to color this Mouse stamp that I had got to make boyfriend a Valentine’s Day card with.

And here is my first colored image using alcohol markers:

Those penciled notes you see in the top left corner are my notes with each of the colors I used to create this image so I know for next time what the best colors are to use.

Yay!
