Now onto some new cute release!

Have you been wanting and yearning for more cuddlebugs from Tierra Jackson? Well, she's done it again! This brand new release at Unity Stamp is just AMAZING. If you've not started buying any cuddlebugs, these may just be the one to get you started. Just sayin' :)

So I have NEW VIDEOS and cards for you.

For my first card, I am using the new Cuddlebug Dragon. I feel that if you're a Game of Thrones (GOT) or How to Train your Dragon fan, this would be perfect for you! It's cute and not overly scary. 

I stamped the dragon on my new Strathmore Toned Gray paper and colored it in using Prismacolor colored pencils. What's great about using pre-colored paper, is that I didn't need to color in the entire image! Plus, the paper has these really cool fibers in it that adds interest to the card.

For my next card, I used the new Cuddlebug Sea Turtles; which are just so darn cute! Every cuddlebug is just so much fun. So, as you can see, I had lots of white space to fill up and instead of coloring in the space, I dotted small dots with my Tombow dual brush marker pens. You could use any markers that you have for this technique. Just a fun way to color in your image.

The new Cuddlebug Otter is also just SO CUTE, I made some water swirls for him to swim in :)

I used my Tonic Studios Nuvo drops (jewel, glitter, crystal) to just swirl the colors in. Really easy peezy!

And for my final card of the day, I used the freebie of this week called Patience and Love. Seriously, this is my FAVORITE! Way TOO cute! :) I colored in the quilt for the entire family using my Copic markers, then added stars and lots of sparkles with Tonic Studios Nuvo Glimmer Paste [moonstone].

So, go shop now at Unity Stamp and get this freebie! You do not want to miss this.

Wishing you a Happy Easter weekend too!

For my first card, it's this beautiful mermaid "Adella Girl" by Angie Girl. I used my new Jane Davenport watercolors [Bright Palette] - the colors are very fun and BRIGHT! LOVE them. Plus, a little goes a long way.  I also added some Nuvo drops to create the bubbles.

For this card, I used the "Drink Wine Feel Fine" stamp with the cute wine bottle/glass. I colored it with copic markers and inked the "table" with some Distress Oxide inks. Then I wanted to create like a wallpaper background, so I used the new Tim Holtz idea-ology collage paper "Botanical". This comes in black/white so it's fun to color them it or just leave it be. I used the Creative Devotion crayons to color them in to get a soft look.

And for my final card, I colored "Daisy Girl" with Spectrum Noir sparkle pens for the glitter. For my background, I used the new Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks [Tattered Rose / Squeezed Lemonade / Shaded Lilac]. The colors are so pretty! Then I sprayed some water over a Tim Holtz stencil to get the 'negative' look as the inks will react with water.

For my first card, I am using the stamp "Today and Always" which features this super cute dog! I LOVE IT! So I wanted to add lots of hearts onto this card and created this melt art hearts with embossing powder. YUPS! How cool right? I saw Marianne from WOW Embossing powder demo-ing this technique and just have to try it out for myself. I used Zing metallic embossing powders for this technique. Imagine the possibilities!

And now, a card for the cat lovers! This "Meow & Furever" kit is jsut PURR-fect don't you think? I wanted to create a fun background for this card so I just grabbed some cat-related washi tapes and wa-la! :) Quick and easy (and a great way to use up your washi stash).

Oh... When I saw this "Happy Mind Happy Life", it literally just blew my mind! Don't you think this is such an awesome stamp? So carefree, relaxed and just happy? So I wanted to create some clouds as if she is just swinging in the skies. I played with some Golden glass bead gels and this thing is just AWESOME if you feel/see it in real. It literally has actual glass beads in it! Once it was dried, I used some Golden watercolor to color so that it looked like clouds (or water, if you prefer). I think it turned out awesome!

And for my final card, I used the "Angelic Wishes" stamp which is just so angelic! I wanted to create a dreamy effect so I mixed up some Tim Holtz distress oxide inks with..... (wait for it).... gesso! It creates this really nice soft tinted embossing paste - which I applied through a Tim Holtz stencil "Clockworks". 

Hope you enjoyed these quick techniques and do try it out for yourself!

Have a fabulous weekend.
