Pajama Party | Jane’s Doodles

HEY FRIENDS! As many of you know, I’m the primary caregiver for my elderly parents and that has taken up a lot of my time. But we’ve been forced to not only slow down, but stay at home since my husband tested positive on Tuesday for Covid-19. Luckily I’m still testing negative. We’ve spent these days taking it easy — albeit in separate parts of the house — which has been a nice contrast to all of the running around that we’ve had to do lately. I’ve stayed upstairs where my studio is located so I’ve had a lot of pajama time in the studio since I don’t have to go anywhere. When it was time to create a card for Jane’s Doodles, the Pajama Party digital stamp was a natural choice!

Tea Time Fun | Colorado Craft Company

HEY FRIENDS! Just a quick post to show you some early Saturday morning coloring! Here I’m featuring the Anita Jeram Tea Time Fun stamp set by Colorado Craft Company. I didn’t sleep well last night which means that I’ll crash hard later today, but instead of tossing and turning in bed, I decided to hang out in the studio and do a little coloring. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

I stamped the images with Memento ink using my Misti. As you know, this is the traditional Copic safe ink but it doesn’t always result in a crisp image. So I left the stamps in place on the Misti lid and after coloring the image, I put the image panel back in and stamped a second time using Versafine ink. This resulted in a darker, crisper image for the final result. Just make sure that you are finished coloring with your Copics BEFORE you restamp with Versafine since the ink is not alcohol marker compatible.

That’s all for today! See you again soon!

For the previous cards in this release, I relied on masking the stamped image when creating my ink blended scene. This time I masked a rectangular background that I ink blended using Distress Oxides in Lost Shadow and Hickory Smoke and then used Anita Jeram 3 Kings coordinating dies to cut out the image.

Hope you enjoyed today’s project!
