Scrappers Delights er vår sponsor for denne ukens utfordring #30 hos Creative Fingers ~ som vanlig har vi 'Lag-hva-du-vil' med et valgfritt tema som denne gangen er å bruke Perler/halv-perler! Jeg fikk 'Super Hero Boy' digistempel å vise frem, kjempesøt! Og jeg har prøvd meg på et typisk guttekort... med Perler!!! Ikke helt typisk det da, og litt utfordrende... men det funket til slutt!
Vi har også en DT-Call på utfordringsbloggen ~ så om du kunne tenkte deg å være med på vårt design-team, ta en titt her! :)
Jeg har latt kreativiteten flyte fritt, og lekt meg med Gelli Arts gel printing og lagd flere bakgrunner, både på dette kortet og på flere som kommer etterhvert! Kjempemoro med stenciler og blekk og maling :) Mere info på engelsk lenger ned i tråden, med flere flotte linker til videoer på youtube!
PSst: imorgen har jeg bursdag, så det blir nok en el. annen overraskelse her i bloggen snart! :)
We're also currently expanding on our design team, so if you're interested in joining us at Creative Fingers DT, take a look see at our DT CALL!
I really wanted to do a boy card and with this digi ~ and I struggled a bit with adding pearls to it... a bit unusual to go with a boy-theme, but at least they are blue! *lol* :)
Had some new cogs-dies too from Sissix that I wanted to play with ~ perfect for boys or steampunk cards I think.
My background paper is done with a brayer and different colored inkpads ~ on a Gelli Plate! I'm totally hooked on this new technique, after seeing this video by Lavinia Stamps on youtube 'Card creations using the Gelli Plate', I knew I just had to buy one. It arrived recently, and I've made lots of fun backgrounds ~ wich will end up on cards soon :) Gelli Arts have their own channel on youtube with tutorials on how to use the gel plate. And this lady ~ Patti Parrish ~ has some very cool techniques that I'll try out sometime (she's very entertaining too!).
And by the way.. Tomorrow is my birthday so there will be a surprise giveaway soon!!! :)
I enter my card in theese fab Challenges: [Ends on]
● Crafting Musketeers #12. ~ Monochrome! [April 28th.]

● 4 Krafty Girlz #15. ~ Anything Goes! [April 16th.]

Techniques: Gelli Arts 6x6 Gel Printing Plate. Background paper made with a brayer and misc inks, like Ranger's Adirondack 'wild flower' dye ink pad. The pattern is made with a piece of metal punchinella.
I used Twinkling H2o's and Tim Holtz Distress Ink pads to watercolor and distress image and papers.
Comfort Craft Distressing Tool by Ingvild Bolme for the edges -> This btw. is also a new addition to my stash, and I LOVE it! Usually I have had 'sandpaper-fingers', I've could have been a cat-burglar with fingerprints almost vanished *lol* But this tool is awesome for all your distressing needs! Highly reccomend it - I got mine at Joanna Sheen.
