labels… – First Posted: Monday, January 31, 2011

Hiyah.

I have a heart shaped balloon digi for you today which went perfectly with this little bear stamp from hero arts, I printed out the image and coloured with copics then trimmed and popped up with a 3D foam pad. I drew a straight line with a fine nibbed marker and ruler to the little bears hand, you could really easily recreate this idea with any cute digi or rubber stamp character you may have in your stash.

I have some label cut files for you too today, I used the middle label in my tag today. I have several sets of labels so there are more of these to come in future posts, they all come with a matting layer shown in pink. I hope you like them and they come in handy for you.

Here is your digi:

Hi There!

Well I’ve been having a play with my new Copics and they’re great, this is my first Copic card! Woot! The colours are so vivid compared to markers I have tried in the past and you barely have to touch the page to colour in images. It’s going to take some practice to get used to them but I can tell already that they blend so well, they really do seem as good as everyone says, its just my skill that needs some work now lol and thats all part of crafting isn’t it? Learning new skills and techniques is one of the best bits of our hobby I reckon.

I have a tattoo inspired heart and scroll digi stamp for you today, one with a sentiment and one plain so you can hand write or stamp your own message on it. I hope you like them.

I went for a less traditional take on a valentines card with some strong colours and used the faux tile technique on my image: I coloured my image to match my patterned paper then cut into squares and covered with a layer of crystal effects type laquer then stuck onto some black card when dry.

Hiyah!

One thing I am particularly excited about is that I have figured out how to make matting layers for my cut files, finally lol, I am still trying teaching myself how to use Illustrator, mostly by trial and error ha ha. Ok so the matting layers will appear in pink so if you cut the pink layer and the white layer in different colours you will achieve the effect shown in the cut file images which is exactly what I did in todays card to make the medalion like frame around my sentiment.
