Winter Berries Frame | Pinkfresh Studio

Published on September 28, 2023April 7, 2024 by Rowhouse Greetings3 Comments

HEY FRIENDS! Something a little different today. With the holidays coming, I like to add a bit of sparkle and shine to my cards, so I pulled out my Spellbinders Glimmer Foil System and got to work. I recently purchased the Winter Berries Frame foil plate by Pinkfresh Studio and decided to use it as the focus of my card. Now I know that not all of you have a Glimmer System – no fear! This same image is available as a clear stamp set that you could use with gold embossing powder the result would be equally elegant.

After the image was foiled on Hammermill cardstock, I colored the leaves and berries with Copic markers. I wanted a soft effect so I used more muted tones instead of the usual darker greens and reds. Copic marker BG90 is very light and hard to blend with BG93, so I used the tip-to-tip blending method to make it work.

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

Santa’s Helpers | Simon Says Stamp

Published on September 18, 2023January 31, 2024 by Rowhouse GreetingsLeave a comment

HEY FRIENDS! I’m slowly working through my stash of stamps and I came across the Santa’s Helpers stamp set by Simon Says Stamp. I’m usually a one and done kind of crafter — I use a stamp once and I rarely go back and use it again. This mindset has advantages because I don’t get so attached to my stamps that I can’t destash as needed. But it does get expensive to use a stamp set just once and then set it aside indefinitely. So I decided to try to use as many of the images and sentiments from this stamp set and came up with three cards which I have to show you today.

Snow Cool | Anthony’s Paper Craft

Published on September 12, 2023January 31, 2024 by Rowhouse Greetings1 Comment

HEY FRIENDS! I stopped by the Stamp Scrap Art Tour show in Westminster this past Sunday and roamed around the various vendor booths. It was nice to get out and talk with representatives of the various companies, especially have these past few years when such events were suspended out of necessity. I have a thing for snowmen so when I saw the Snow Cool stamp set by Anthony’s Paper Craft I knew that I had to color this image.

Since the snowmen are marching in such a strong diagonal, I decided to make it a design element for the card. I stamped the image on Hammermill cardstock, stamped the image with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink and colored it with Copic markers (see list below). I cut the image panel on the diagnonal and backed it with design papers from my stash. I stamped one of the sentiments from the Feeling of Christmas stamp set by Penny Black in the lower right corner using Versafine Clair in Nocturne. I covered the ink with clear embossing powder and heat set it so that the sentiment would stand out against the pattern paper.

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!

HEY FRIENDS! Quick post today – I have another project and a new Copic coloring video featuring the Anita Jeram Bird Perch Mini stamp set by Colorado Craft Company. There’s a reason why this stamp set is called Bird Perch that would have been more obvious if I had remembered to stamp the bird. But the rabbit works by himself. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!
