Technique Tuesday - Children's Cards - Happy Hedgehogs

 Today's card was made for a little girl called Mia I know who will be turning 5 very soon. She woke at about 10pm one night and looked out of her window to see little creatures outside. She was really excited as she'd never seen them before so her mum told her they were hedgehogs. She has loved them so much since that night and now everything is hedgehogs this and hedgehogs that! So I've used the stamp set called Happy Hedgehogs of course. I  started with a piece of Misty Moonlight card and stamped It's In The Stars stamp all over the card with a white ink pad. On a separate piece of card. I stamped the tree and hedgehogs then coloured them in using my Stampin' Blends pens. I fussy cut them all out and added them to what looks like the night sky on the card background. I used the Alphabest for the number and Charming Sentiments for the rest.

 

This or That Thursday - Backgrounds - It's In The Stars

 Hello, thank you for stopping by. Today for my first card, I stamped the image from It's in the Stars using Versamark Ink pad onto a piece of A5 white card. Once done, I turned the card around and then repeated it across the other side of the card. I poured White Embossing Powder across the whole sheet and then heat set it. Using a Blending Brush I coloured the white card using Starry Sky ink. I didn't want it too dark so was very careful how I applied it. Once complete, I used a tissue to rub over the stars well to make them shine. Using the In The Moment stamp set, I stamped one of the images and coloured it using my blends pens. Then I did as I always like to do and fussy cut it all out. I stamped and added some sentiments and completed the THIS card. 

THIS AND THAT

 

 

THAT

My next card is using the other half of the blue sky and stars. This time I have die cut some of the Cheerful Daisies and pieced them altogether. I added a few of the fine leaves behind them, some sentiments later and the THAT card is complete too.
