Go Wild with Guest DT Justine Hovey!

Hi Crafters,

it's Justine again and I'm back guest designing for Gerda Steiner Designs. I just love these critters! They are too adorable and I had this funny image in my head of the animals car-jacking the safari vehicle and leaving the guide behind so this is what I created with my Copics and the Go Wild Stamp Set. I'm am also giving away a Go Wild Stamp away on my Blog!

If you would like to know more about the colours I used for this image, check out the video or my Blog! Thank you Gerda Steiner Designs for having me again!

I am doing giveaways every weekday this month, along with a video tutorial so head over to my blog for more details on that!

Sportsy Santa Techniques with Guest Designer Justine Hovey

Hi Crafters,

It's Justine again guest designing today and I'm super excited to be showing off a video tutorial. Today I am using the Sportsy Santa stamp and I'm going to have a skating Santa losing his hat on the ice. I used several techniques on this card that you can see up close in the video: stencilling, masking and curving clear stamps to manipulate them exactly the way you need them.

For this card, I die cut a circle in white cardstock. I masked off a straight line at the bottom using 3M tape and laid my stencil overtop. I stencilled in the birch trees using Tumbled Glass ink. I then stamped the Santa and hat on a sheet of Neenah cardstock and I got to work with my Copic Markers. I put everything together and embellished with some Nuvo drops.

Copic Markers:

E000, E01, E11

N0, N4, N6

I am delighted to have had the opportunity to guest design again and I will see in the new year. I wish all of you and your families a Merry Christmas or Happy Time-off this holiday season! Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel for more videos!

GSD on the 12 Days of Christmas!

Hi Crafters,

I’m Justine and I’m here guest designing again today. I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with GSD stamps again! For those of you that don’t know me, I am from Canada and I’m a teacher. I have a YouTube channel and love crafting. I have been cardmaking for over 10 years. I am doing a series currently on YouTube and it is my third year doing it. I do a minimum of 12 Christmas tutorials for my 12 Days of Christmas series. Today, I am featuring the Up on the Housetop stamp and die set to create this adorable scene! 

To create this card, I die cut the frame for my scene so I knew the exact size I was going to work with. I masked off a snowbank using some masking tape and inked up a night sky. I used distress inks: Chipped Sapphire, Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch. I then stamped and coloured some of the images from the Up on the Housetop stamp set with Copic markers. I finally put everything together and I think it turned out so cute!

Markers Used:

R14, R39, R37

N2, N6

E13, E15, E17, E33, E55

Happy Birthday Human with Guest Designer Justine Hovey

Hi Crafters,

I'm Justine and I am guest designing today here at GSD Stamps. I am super excited about this opportunity to use these stamps - they are just too cute! 

A little bit about myself. My name is Justine and I am originally from Canada but currently living in Edinburgh, Scotland. I am a teacher by profession but have kept a crafty blog and YouTube channel for quite some time now as a sort of "second job". I enjoy crafting, reading and traveling or just wondering the streets of Europe and getting lost in them. 

I have created a YouTube video on how to make this card - a sort of step-by-step tutorial if you are interested in recreating a galaxy background or this card itself. A big thank you to GSD Stamps for contacting me and letting me know about their awesome stamps! Can't wait to make something else with these babies! If you liked what I created, don't forget to follow me on Instagram (@justinehovey), subscribe to my YouTube channel or like my Facebook page.
