Deeply Grateful For Your Friendship by Noga Shefer

Hi crafty friends,  Noga here and I am so happy to share with you another project for Gerda Steiner Designs today.

My card featuring  Deeply 4x6 Clear Stamp Set and Deeply 4x6 Die Set.

I would like to make a fun card with those adorable critters.

To make this card I took an A2 panel of Bristol smooth cardstock. The sea background was 

created by blending tumbled glass, speckled egg and faded jeans distress oxide inks.

I spired some water onto it and soaked it up with paper towel and

splattered some faded jeans distress oxide ink with water on it.

The sand background was created by blending scattered straw oxide ink and

splattered some walnut stain distress oxide ink with water on it.

Next I colored the images using copic markers. 

I glued them to my panel with foam tape for dimension. 

Next I stamped a greeting from the stamp set using black ink.

I hope you enjoy the project I created and feel inspired to create!

Have a wonderful week!

Go Wild!

Hey there, friends!




It’s Kelly Martin here, and I’m so honored to be a guest here on the Gerda Steiner blog today. I’m so grateful for their kind invitation and I had so much fun creating with these adorable “Go Wild” critter stamps!

These cards were pretty easy to pull together--and they are all one-layer! So let’s get right down to it, shall we?
I started out by cutting and scoring two 4.25 x 5.5 inch card bases and then got to work on creating the scenes.

For one layer cards, it’s all about masking. It helps to do a little bit of pre-planning, but it doesn’t have to take long! Just stamp out your images on to a piece of scratch paper and that will help you figure out what order you need to stamp your images and apply your masks on the real card.

And you know what I love about these stamps? They’re really easy to create masks for. Just stamp out the images on to some masking material (I used these full adhesive post-it notes) and then stamp your front image first, then apply your masks and stamp the rest of your images (following your scratch paper plan) accordingly!

I colored these critter images from the Go Wild stamp set with copic markers and then stamped the sentiments (again using some masking with painter’s tape!) to finish off the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today, and be sure to check back in a few weeks for some more cards that are just ducky!!

Hugs,

Kelly

These cats from the All Cats stamp set are ohh so adorable and the one holding the poster is so stinking cute.

Guest Designer | All Cats.

Hi all - I am Anna Sigga and I was thrilled to be asked to guest design for Gerda Steiner Designs.

I used this adorable stamp set called All Cats and I must say these lil creature are too darn cute for words!

I love how cute this lil cat is (psst. I think he is my fave ;) from all the bunch) so I just had to create two cards but using the same design.

These stamps are great to use for any occasion and I love how a simple color combo can make the card look and feel different.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope your day is a crafty one!
