Monochromatic in Winter

Hi everyone,

Hope you all are doing well. Today I am sharing a cute little card I created for our Challenge at International Art & Soul themed - #63 Monochromatic. I thought it turned out pretty cute.

I used my blue gelato's for the background to get a nice monochromatic look to the night sky. I used Inky Antics Polar Bear Pals stamp set. For the stars I used an old Stamp'n Up stamp from my stash.
After the gelato background dried I then, stamped and heat embossed my bears in black embossing powder. I painted in moon with antique linen distress paint to give it a night moon look. I used versa mark to stamp my stars around and used heat n stick powder then added my glitter. I also used Fran-tage by Stampendous, using the Shabby blue (I love Fran-tage) to give it an little glimmer of falling snow around the bears.  For my bears I painted them in with white paint and then added white flock on top of them. I didn't place a sentiment on the front as I am not sure if it's going to be a Christmas card or just a thinking of you card. Either way I think it came out nice. Wish you could touch the bears cause they are so furry. lol
I hope you all like the card.

This photo shows the white flock on the bears a little better.

Day 3 Growing In Unity Gal - You Are Lovely

Good Morning,

**Don't Miss Out**

This is a little card measured at 4x4. I stamped the heart in memento ink - Love letter Red, and I cut out the inside of the heart. I then used gelato pink to paint the front of the card and used stickles in the corners. I added red holographic paper behind the cut out heart image.

Thinking In Colors

Hi all,

I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend. Guess what today is??
Yep, it's a new start of a great challenge at One Stitch At A Time Ch. 272 Anything Goes with Monochromatic. I don't know about you but these cards are always so hard for me.

For this image I used my gelatos and did watercoloring on this inside of this gorgeous butterfly I did a pink to purple coloring on the top and then I used blues on the bottom. I just love this butterfly designed by Coosty Creations - Love Is To Be Free, just click on the name this will take you directly to the link. I used my copics to color the flowers and the leaves then added star dust stickles over the flowers to make them sparkle. I was going for a simple look on this card, I wanted the butterfly to be the main focus. So I enlarged the butterfly, cut my card at 5x5 and placed the butterfly right on top with 3D adhesive squares. I added a lovely lavendar satin sheer organza with satin center bow to the top of the card.

Let's Go Fishing

Good Day All,

I hope you all are having a good start to your week. Today at Crafty Sentiments Designs we are having a New Challenge - For A Man so this is a good time to start those early Father's Day cards or Happy Birthday Cards for the lovely men your your life. :D  

I chose Let's Fish stamp from Crafty Sentiments Store for my man card. It's the first time I think I've combined so many stamps in one card, plus got to use my NEW Cricut Explore. :D  This is such a cute stamp. I absolutely love it, reminds me of my hubby when we would go fishing he would be so excited if he caught one.

Here is my card -

I think it turned out cute. 

I did water coloring on my image with Tim Holtz Distress Markers. 

Water was water-colored with Gelato's and used Copics for my

water waves and splash I drew for the fish. 

I like how the his hat and clothing turned out

cause they look worn out. Something guys would wear for fishing.
