Sea You Soon! Good Bye to the Drive by Crafts Design Team...

Hello Friends Waleska here from craftinglovew with my last post on the Drive by Crafts Design Team.  Time definetely flies when you are having fun!!! I loved my time on this team and sharing with you my ideas!!! For my last card of course I wanted to create a scene with some of my favorite Lawn Fawn sets from all time, some old and some new!! This long card is very colorful and shows lots of different characters and must haves if you are like me and enjoy making cute cards.

CARD DETAILS:

I started with the card base which is a letter size sheet fold in half, I cut 2 inches so it can fit inside a long business envelope.  I cut different sizes of water waves and colored them with oxide inks in colors: Faded Jeans, Peacoack Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon and Salty Ocean.  For the little island I used Kraft Cardstock, I splashed all the waves with water for a realistic water look. 

For the sky I used Squeezed Lemonade and Carved Pumpking Oxide Inks.  I planned my scene from top to bottom, my inspiration was an image I found of the ocean with lots and lots of little fishes.  I started stamping and coloring all the characters I wanted to use and placing them on the card without adhering them.  I build this big scene little by little and I tried to use kind of the same colors for a harmonic feel.

After I knew exactly where I wanted all my images I started adhering them to my card, with glue and some with 3D foam.  I used a white gel pen to draw attention to some parts of the images and some glitter glue for sparkle.  I finally stamped the sentiment with black ink.

I hope I inspire you to mix and match some of your stamp sets with this card!!!! I had the best time on the Drive by Crafts Team, I learned a lot and made some great friends!!! Take care and thank you so much for all your kindness during my time as a DT Member!!! 

Keep on Crafting!!!

Love,

What is Canoe with you?

Hello Friends Waleska here, today I want to share with you a card I created with one of the most adorable Sugar Pea Designs set called Indian Summer. This set is full of racoons in different poses to create great outdoor scenes.  Let me share with you how I created this card.

CARD DETAILS:

To create this card I used many different Oxide Ink colors, I wanted to make a night scene on a lake with this cute guys.  To make the this scene I tear a piece of white cardstock trying to form the shape of a lakeside.

I used this piece as a mask to apply the Oxide Ink colors Peeled Paint, Vintage Photo  ans Faded Jeansfor the forest.  I used Mermaid Lagoon Oxide Ink for the water.  

I added some water splashes and colored  with markers three of the racoons from the set.  I also created a moon with a circle die, gray ink and water splases.

I stamped the sentiment and adhere all the elements to the front panel of my card.  I hope you like my card and I hace inspired you to create something amazing today!

Out of This World Reveal Wheel!

Hello everyone Waleska here, thank you so much for stopping by for my weekly blog, today with a new, interactive and fun card.  If you follow me you already know I am a big, huge Lawn Fawn Fan... This recent release in my opinion was one of the best.  One of my absolute favorite was the Reveal Wheel Die Set... this die is a total must have in your die arsenal... It is so easy to ensemble and so fun to make cards...

CARD DETAILS:

To start my card I die cut three of the main pieces with white cardstock.  I wanted to use the 

Beam Me Up stamp set to create a galaxy scene so I first place the spaceship where I wanted the reveal wheel to rotate and drew with a pencil around it to know where to cut the space window for the aliens to be.  After I cut the window I trace on the rotating wheel three times the window to know where to stamp the cute aliens.  After this I started creating the galaxy on the front panel with Oxide Inks Seedless Preserves, Blueprint Sketch and Black Soot, I used lots of water and some little star sequins to create the galaxy.

After the background was completed I started the assembly of the card,  I stamped other images from the set to create a scene, where the alien dad is at the galaxy spaceship stop to leave his son who is going on a field trip to the earth.  The light from the spaceship was made with tracing paper that I colored with a yellow marker.  I used black cardstock for the card base as well as for the sentiment.  

Every time you turn the wheel a different Alien shows on the spaceship window...  This card was so much fun to make... look on your stamps and dies for other fun ideas to use the Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel... I guarantee you will have a blast creating one of this.

Birthday Bus to a Beach Party!

Hi Everyone, today I have a fun and colorful birthday scene card with the adorable Birthday Bus critters from Avery Elle.  I've wanted to create a card with this fun little set for a long time, I am so happy I could finally use it... I love this little stamp sets from different companies because the prize is great and you can pair them with lots of other sets you already own.  You can find this and other small stamp sets at the shop.

CARD DETAILS:

My creating process starts with a color combo I want to use for the entire card, I almost always try to use only the colors I choose, three or four colors I find work great for a design.  I color the cute birthday bus with markers in the colors I already choose to start and work from that. 

I then started with the background, to color the background I used Mermaid Lagoon Oxide Ink with some water splashes.  I cut a strip of black cardstock for the road and with a wave die I cut from kraft cardstock the sand, I wanted this party to be at the beach.

I adhere everything to the front of the card and frame the scene with a rectangle frame die I colored in the same hot pink color I used on the bus...to complete the beach look I needed a palm tree, this palm tree is part of the MFT Beach Scene Builder Die-namic, (a must have die set, if you ask me), I colored it also with markers.

I finally stamped the sentiment with black ink and added some nuvo drops in the same tones.  I hope you like this happy birthday beach card,  I wish you have a wonderful rest of the week...
