My Design Team Card for Mother's Day using Kangaroo Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miler Creative Studios
My Mother’s Day Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here with My Mother’s Day Card using the digital stamp called ‘Kangaroo’ Digital Stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. Mother’s Day is just around the corner and this stamp is perfect for that special mom!

I coloured this sweet digital stamp with my Copic markers in Spring like colours. Don’t you just love how the little Roo is hanging out of his mummy’s pouch! Sneak peek…the Designer Series Paper I used is from the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue that starts in May 2021! It was sitting on my desk with it’s pretty colours just begging to be used! Lol! The butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies was die cut from the DSP as well. The Pool Party Sheer Ribbon  tied in a pretty bow went perfectly with the DSP! The sentiment was embossed in white and then die cut with a scallop die from the Layering Circle Dies. A scattering of rhinestones, Wink of Stella and Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen add some sparkle to the card.

My Some Bunny Card

My Design Team Card
My Some Bunny Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Some Bunny Card as my Design Team Card for Conie Fong Art & Design. This card uses 3 different digital stamps including Bunny Daffodil Bundle which includes 9 stamps and Daffodil Flowers Bundle which includes 7 stamps.

I thought it would be cute to create a slimline card and use the Fields of Daffodils with the sweet Bunny Daffodil in front almost like he has picked those flowers just for you!

I decided to colour my daffodils in both yellows and white/yellows to give a variation to my field of daffodils. Daffodils can come in many different colours, but these are the colours that I have in my garden. My favourite is the white with yellow centres! To fit my field onto the slim line base, I cut it in half so that there is a slight gap which you can’t see behind the bunny. So, it looks like a continual field of daffodils! I did the same thing with the 6” pretty paper that you can just see peeking out as a border around the daffodils. This saves paper and you can’t see the gap hidden behind the bunny. A win-win situation! A couple of die cut butterflies with rhinestones and some epoxy water drops is all the embellishments that this card needed.

Hydrangea Thank You Card

My Hydrangea Thank You Card

Today is I am sharing my Hydrangea Thank You Card that I made for a swap using the beautiful Hydrangea Haven Bundle by Stampin Up! I love how the watercolour hydrangea pops out of the DSP and the Stitched Nested frame!

I swooned over the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper when I saw it! All my favourite colours are in it like Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather and Mossy Meadow to name just a few! So, I decide that I wanted to use some of the colours in the DSP for my hydrangea flower head and leaves.

The Process of the Watercolour Technique

Prepare to get all inky! For my card, I pulled out my Stampin’ Up! Ink Refills of Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Misty Moonlight and Seaside Spray to use on my watercolour paper. I drop a couple of drips of each colour onto my work space and added a few spritzes of the Frost White Shimmer Paint (that was premixed with rubbing alcohol) and then a few spritzes of water. I then dragged my watercolour paper through the ink picking up the colours.

Once the ink was dried on the flower heads, I used my Blending Brush to add a bit more Gorgeous Grape to the raised petals to give it a bit more dimension.

I did the same steps for the stem and leaves using Old Olive and Mossy Meadow.

Here is a video that I presented to fellow demonstrators showing this technique:

I love this look since you can get different variations in the flowers. Here is an example of both light and dark flower heads.
