Grateful for your Kindness

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and I created this fun underwater card using the Gerda Steiner Designs Deeply and A Whale of a Time stamp sets:

  • stamp the submarine, the bear, the jellyfish and some other fish from the Gerda Steiner Designs Deeply set and the starfish from the Gerda Steiner Designs A Whale of a Time set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black
  • color the images with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
  • create a background with the help of Distress Ink (Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon) - use water droplets to add extra texture
  • ink up the edges with Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire
  • cut out a hill-shape from kraft cardstock and add brown and white splatters to it
  • stamp the sentiment from the Gerda Steiner Designs Deeply set with Distress Oxide Ink Chipped Sapphire


I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

I'm so lucky to have you 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 tag featuring the adorable Garden Critter - 4x6 Clear Stamp Set and  Garden Critter Dies. How cute is this set??

To make this tag I took a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock and cut a tag die.

The background was created by blending kitscn flamingo distress oxide ink,I spired some water onto it and soaked it up with paper towel.
I also splattered some kitscn flamingo distress oxide ink with water on it.

Than I colored the sweet critter using copic markers and glued it to my panel using  mini action wobbler.

Next I stamped a greeting from Ladybugs - 4x6 Clear Stamp using white powder and heat embossed it.

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

                                  

Thanks for stopping by,

Thanks So Much

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and I created this watercolor Thank you Card using the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Bee-Day stamp set:

  • stamp some poppies from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Bee-Day set with Versafine Clair Nocturne onto a rectangular piece of watercolor paper - use the masking technique
  • color the image with Karin Brushmarkers Pro
  • splatter the finished piece with watered-down white gouache
  • ink up the edges with Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire
  • stamp the sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Curvy Sayings with Versamark onto a Lawn Fawn Curvy Banner cut from dark blue cardstock and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
  • cut another banner from vellum and layer both on top of each other
  • add a strip of patterned paper to the top and bottom of the panel before adhering it to a cardbase


Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
