Happy Birthday Badge-Card

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and I created this fun badge-card using the Gerda Steiner Designs Juggling Tiger:

• resize the adorable Gerda Steiner Designs Juggling Tiger in order to fit his face to a 3 cm (1.2'') badge and print it out twice
• color both images identically with Delta and Touch Twin Brush Markers
• add highlights with a white gel pen
• I used my new Bandai Badge it! to create the pin out of one of the images - so many possibilities, don't you think?
• cut out a stitched panel around the second image and color the background with alcohol markers as well
• stamp the sentiment from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Hoppy stamp set with Versafine (Onyx Black)
• I adhered the badge to the card with three rolled glue dots ... the recipient should be able to take off the badge without ruining the card itself

This is a picture of the card without the badge:

The Gerda Steiner Designs Juggling Tiger was part of the Digital Stamp Bundle August 2016 and is now sold separately. If you like stamp bundles with adorable images and a discount on top, you should really check out the Digital Stamp Bundle September 2016 which is available until the end of the month.

I hope you got inspired.

Yours,

Happy Mail Monster

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and I would like to share this creation using a Gerda Steiner Designs digital stamp with you:

• color the super cute Gerda Steiner Designs Monster Letter image from the Digital Stamp Bundle August with Delta and Touch Twin Brush Markers
• add some details with a white gel pen and Glossy Accents to the little heart on the envelope
• stamp the sentiment from the Create a Smile Happymail stamp set with Versamark onto a stitched watercolor paper panel and heat-emboss it with four different colors of WOW! embossing powder (Pink Lady, Parma Violet, Lagoon, Blue Tang)
• create a background by stamping several envelopes from the Lawn Fawn You've got Mail set with Versafine (Smokey Gray)
• color the envelopes with Daniel Smith Watercolors and add some black splatters with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolors
• add a strip of black cardstock to the left side of the panel before adhering it to a white cardbase

Have a colorful day.

Hi there,

• create a background for the little bear with the help of Distress Re-Inkers (Tumbled Glass, Pumice Stone) and a waterbrush

Thanks for stopping by.
