Lucky Mouse | LOTV Stamps

HEY FRIENDS! It’s time for another edition of Nancy and Jill Color Together! As you know that Jill Killeen of Killeen House Studio asked me to participate in a monthly challenge with her where we would color the same image and see how we each interpreted it. 

This month we’re coloring a digital stamp by Lili of the Valley called Lucky Mouse. If you want to play along, you can find the stamp in their Etsy shop. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

Here’s my interpretation of this month’s image!

Featured Supplies

As you can see, Jill and I went in different directions this month. Jill matched her colors to her design paper, which created a beautiful contrast overall. I stuck to lighter colors and added a stenciled background. I added the clouds after I finished the Copic coloring using Distress Ink in Speckled Egg.

And here’s Jill’s interpretation of this image. Check out her blog post for all of her card details.

Bundle Girl Cherry Blossoms | Stamping Bella

HEY FRIENDS! I’ve got something different for you today. I bet you think that all I color are cute bunnies and sometimes that’s what it feels like. So for a change of pace, I pulled out one of my favorite Stamping Bella images today — Bundle Girl Cherry Blossoms — to share with you today. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

Today’s Project

Rowhouse Greetings | Bundle Girl Cherry Blossoms by Stamping Bella

Featured Products

I stamped the image on Hammermill cardstock using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black and then colored the image using Copic markers (see list below). I fussy cut the image, added foam squares to the back and set it aside.

For the back ground, I used the Diagonal Stitched Rectangles die set to cut both a plain and decorated rectangle from Hammermill cardstock. On the plain bordered piece, I stamped an image from the Stamp Set #399 Framework Elements stamp set using Archival Ink in Shadow Grey. Next, I used the Lotza Dots Stencil to inkblend a random design. I intended using Distress Oxide in Twisted Citron, but I hadn’t cleaned off the stencil from the last time I used it so I ended up with random colors that transferred from the stencil. A happy accident!

I created an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest and assembled the layers as shown.

That’s all for me today!

I started with the box, using the Outside the Box Die-Namics to cut the back and sides from Sno Cone Cardstock. I used the Outside the Box Grassy Hills Die-Namics to cut the inside grassy layers from Limelight Cardstock. Before assembling the box, I stamped the background panel using the Anita Jeram Summer Garden Background and Versafine Clair in Warm Breeze. I assembled the box and grassy layers as shown in this video tutorial from My Favorite Things.

I stamped the sentiment from the Garden Therapy stamp set on Hammermill cardstock and adhered it to the front. Although you can’t see it in the photo, I also stamped the “Find Me in the Garden” sentiment on the side panels. I used Versafine Ink for the sentiments.

Next, I selected images from the following stamp sets:

The images were stamped on Hammermill cardstock using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black and colored with Copic markers (see list). Coordinating dies (see Supply list below) are available for the stamp sets, but I didn’t have them so I fussy cut the images. After deciding on the placement, I adhered the images in place on the grassy layers using foam squares.

Copic Coloring Video

If the video is not visible below, click HERE to view it.

For the background, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp Cardstock in Fog to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and stamped it with the Anita Jeram Summer Garden background stamp using Versafine Ink in Morning Mist. I quickly covered the ink with Simon Says Stamp Clear Embossing Powder and heat set the powder. I adhered the panel to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest using Beacon’s 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue and set it aside to dry.

For the main panel, I trimmed a piece of Hammermill Smooth Cardstock using the A2 Chunky Scalloped Rectangle Dies and stamped the images from the Veg Out! stamp set using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. I colored the image with Copic markers (see list above).

After I finished coloring the images, I applied Crafty White Foam Tape to the back of the image panel and assembled the layers as shown.

For my final card, I trimmed a piece of Hammermill Smooth Cardstock using the largest Wonky Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics. Next, I placed the Sun Ray Stencil in the upper left corner and applied Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Sunbeam and Citrine to create the sun and rays. Next I used the Cloud Stencil and created the remainder of sky, working from top to bottom using Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Marine and Sprout. I inkblended the grass using Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Sprout, and Field. Finally, I stamped one of the images from the Greener Grass stamp set using Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Field. I set aside the panel to allow all of the blended ink to dry.
