HEY FRIENDS! Can you stand more cuteness? Today I have three cards for you featuring multiple stamps from the Anita Jeram Summer Garden release by Colorado Craft Company. I’ve been on a roll the past few days, making several cards from the new images. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.
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.

This card is much simplier in comparison to the first! I cut a piece of Hammermill cardstock to 4″ x 5.25″ and stamped the image from the Anita Jeram Rooting for You stamp set using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black. The image was colored using Copic markers (see list above).
I cut a scrap of white cardstock to 3.75″ x .75″ and stamped the sentiment using Versafine Ink in Onyx Black and cut the two sides as a fishtail. I adhered the image panel to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest and assembled the layers as shown.
I added foam tape to the back of the image panel for dimension and adhered the panel to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest as shown.
That’s all for me today! See you again soon!

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.
I adhered the background panel to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest and assembled the layers as shown.
That’s all for me today! See you again soon!

HEY FRIENDS! Today I have a familiar image with a bit of a twist. As you can see, I have used one of my favorite images from Colorado Craft Company — Anita Jeram’s Bunnies and Robin — but I set aside my trust Copic markers to check out the new kid to the alcohol marker neighborhood — OLO Markers. I’ve held off purchasing other alcohol markers as they came on the marker because I already had a full set of Copics and saw no reason to invest elsewhere. But I was curious about OLO Markers. Then my friend Jill Killeen raved about them and Jennifer Dove started using them at her Boot Camp so I decided to take the plunge and purchase a set directly from OLO.
So first, let’s talk about these markers. OLO Markers is a system of 128 half markers which you can connect together using an OLO Connector Ring. Each half marker contains 2ml of ink and uses OLO’s patented free-flow ink technology to use over 90% of the ink in the marker. You can custom build your marker so that you can have a different color on each end or the same color on each end with different nibs (brush or chisel). When you need a refill, you simply purchase a new ink cartridge, remove the nib and empty cartridge, insert the new cartridge and get back to coloring. OLO explains this much better than I can so be sure that you check out their website for more information. And take a look at Jill’s blog post where she goes through the pros and cons of the markers.
So I purchased 128 brush markers which I combined using the collector ring to create 64 markers where each end is a different color brush marker. If you’re interested in these markers, you can either buy directly from the company or purchase marker collections from Simon Says Stamp which I have linked below in my supply list.
The price point is more affordable overall than Copic markers. So OLO Markers are a good alternative if you’ve wanted to take the leap to alcohol markers, but have been put off by the price of Copics.

The first thing I did after receiving my markers was to purchase Sandy Allnock’s OLO Marker Hex Chart. Sandy’s Hex Charts arrange colors in visual order rather than numerical order so you can easily see blending colors. Sandy suggests that you create your selected hue by looking 2-5 spaces away from the initial color to locate a light and dark. For today’s project, I picked some combinations by relying on the OLO Color System and others by using the Hex Chart as Sandy suggested.
