Stampin with Liz Design: Rain or Shine Card with Video Tutorial!

Hi guys! I'm excited to show you guys a new fun card today! It's been raining here for days in the Netherlands now and the rain doesn't seem to be stopping soon. So no place better to hide then in my craft room, but since we have two dogs and four horses I still dare to go outside, and I most say I am an outdoor kind a girl, so a raincoat and umbrella will do the trick!

I created this fun card for the new challenge that started yesterday at the Mft stamps Card Challenges. There is a new sketch up and I just love doing those! I created this card with the amazing stamp set Rain or Shine, just love the images in this set!

The base for this card is created from a piece of thick white cardstock in A2 size. I added a front panel that I diecutted with the largest die from the Stitched Rectangle die from the Die-namics set from Mft. I blended this panel with three colours of Ranger Distress ink, Faded Jeans, Mermaid Lagoon and Tumbled Glass. To make the background pop a bit more I added some ink spatters and rain drops that I drew on my card with a white gel marker.  I added two clouds that I diecutted with the dies from the Stitched Cloud Edges from Mft and then diecutted these again with the same Stitched Rectangle Die to make it match my front panel perfectly. 

I then started working on the focal point for this card, the cute little girl. I stamped, diecutted and coloured her with Copic Markers. I placed her with dimensionals on to my card, just right over the rain pool. Above her I added two clouds that I also coloured with Copic Markers with dimensionals as well. To finish this card I added the text I Love You Rain or Shine. I think it's pretty cute! You can see which colours I used in the photo below!

If you would like to see how this card came about, then check my Video Tutorial on my YouTube Channel. I would love it if you'd leave a thumbs up, to let me know you are watching! Just click on the photo below or here!

Thank you so much for watching today, hope to see you next time! 

Stampin with Liz Design: Tweethearts Card!

Welcome (back) to a new Blog Post from Stampin with Liz Design! Are you all feeling a bit creative today? I had a busy couple of weeks, so it's nice to have some crafting time! Weather here in the Netherlands is a bit sad, we had days of rain now, so it's nice when time lets you, to just crawl under a blanket in your craft room! For today I created a simple, but sweet card!

I started my card with a white base in A2 size. I love to use a bit thicker cardstock for my base to make my card really firm. I then added a front panel that I diecutted with the largest Stitched Rectangle die from the Die-namics set from Mft. I blended the sky with a blending tool and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink from Ranger.

I then diecutted two pieces of white cardstock with the same Rectangle die to make this part match my front panel perfectly. I then diecutted it again with the dies from the Stitched Cloud Edges from Mft. I diecutted the text Birthday Wishes in Gold Foil Paper. I added a piece of adhesive sheet behind the gold paper, to apply it with ease. I also diecutted the text in to the front white cloud, so the gold text would just fall in there.

I then stamped and diecutted the four cute birds from the Tweethearts stamp set from Mft stamps. I coloured these cuties with Copic Markers and placed them with dimensionals on my card. To finish my card I added some sequins in soft blue.

Thank you so much for watching today, hope to see you next time!
