FRIENDS – Square Card

Featuring May 2022 Release: Hello Everyone

The main front panel started with a 6×6 piece of paper from the coordinating paper pack from this release. I then cut a piece of 12×12 paper in white in half and scored at 6 inches to form the card base. The panel was glued on top of the card base.

I stamped 3 images from the stamp set and pulled out my color wheel and decided on 3 colors to form my pallet: yellow, pink and blue. This forms a triangle on the wheel. It is called a triadic color scheme.

Hello Everyone Stamp Set

I chose the images with the bird, kitty and frog hoodies. The color blends used are:

  • Light Skintone – E04, E11, E21, E00, E000 and R20 cheeks
  • Dark Skintone – E59, E57, E15, E33, E31 and R22 cheeks
  • Bird Hoodie – T9, T7, T4; Beak – Y23 and Y19 and T0 – white sections
  • Brunette Hair -E59, E34 and E57
  • Kitty Hoodie -BG0000 (white parts used to lay down shadow
  • Blonde Hair -E25, Y26, Y21 and YR24
  • Pink Bow & Shirt/Socks – FRV1 and RV00 – (Silver Spica pen dotted for glitz)
  • Overall Shorts – FBG2 and BG000 (white gel pen for polka dots)
  • Frog Hoodie & socks – FYG2, YG01, Y00
  • Black Hair – BG02, C3, C5, 100
  • Striped Dress – R20, R24, R39 and R39

I used a geometric basic stencil and the coordinating stencil from this release on top of one another to create an inked panel to show off my colored images. I matted the square in coordinating colors and cut strips of other patterned paper for added interest. The images were adhered to card with dimensional foam tape.

My Blood Type is –COFFEE–

I created this A2 size card by cutting a piece of white card stock and stamping the coffee girl with IV pole in the center. I then created the hospital room scene using COPIC markers.

Chocolate Makes Everything Better

I started the card using a 110 lb cardstock and used the U Bridge Card Die Set from Stamp Anniething. It allows you to create this fun fold card simply and a photo of the dies are below.

U Bridge Card Die

This die cuts several pieces and score lines you will need to use by your bone folder down the scored edges to smooth and crisp folds.

I used the 6×6 coordinating paper pack and selected the coordinating paper to create the scene using the die and then gluing the patterned papers onto the base card previously cut out of the white cardstock with liquid glue.

Ever Since We Said I Do……

Scrappy Boy Design Team Project – May 2, 2022

I had so much fun making this card with my husband, Louie. We grew up watching the show that inspired this month’s release and we enjoyed reminiscing as I colored up the images with my Copic markers.

I tried to keep this card’s color palette simple… combining a soft pink with grayscale tones. The Copic Markers used on this project are photographed below. For her lips, I used R81.

This release is so much fun. There are two 6×8 stamp sets and coordinating outline dies, coordinating stencils and the cutest coordinating paper packs in both 6×6 and slimline. See http://www.scrappyboy.com to check out all Sean has to offer.

I used Scrappy Boy’s A2 Stitched Scalloped Edge Dies. They cut like butter and are powder-coated in Scrappy Boy Blue, which helps me tell my dies apart from others.

A2 Card featuring April 2022 Release, Everyone’s Favorite Red Head
Copic Markers Used to Color All Images

I started with a piece of white cardstock cut 5 1/4 x 4 and used the Hearts and Dots stencil, which is one of two coordinating stencils released this month. Because I wanted a card to reflect the nostalgia of black and white TV, I used a combination of black and gray to create dimension. I also shifted the stencil slightly and used the dirty blending brush (I didn’t add additional ink) and ink blended over the entire stencil. This created a slight gray shadow.

I then cut the stenciled piece in half in half (the long way), leaving one piece for another project. I then cut the remaining piece in half, long-wise and then one strip in half, leaving one fatter vertical piece and two thinner strips. I ink blended the edges lightly to give dimension.

I cut a piece of black cardstock 5 1/4 in x 4 in. I cut a piece of black and white polkadot 2 in x 4 in. from the coordinating paper pack. I glued the stenciled pieces to the black cardstock. I then glued the polkadot piece 1/2 in. from the bottom of the black cardstock. All the colored elements were popped up with foam tape. A flag was cut for the sentiment.

Zonk! & Splat! – Creative Masking Card

Exited to share this card where I took one image and used masking and creative color placement to creating a totally different look. In a FLASH, I created a SPIDER!!!

Here is a prior card using the same image without creative masking.

I used the the coordinating paper pack to create the primary background, as well as a skyline die from my stash. You can find the entire collection at http://www.scrappyboy.com.

I stamped the image, masking the face and certain markings on the body. You can mask with post-it notes , tape or by simply wiping off from the areas of the stamp directly.

I colored the image with Copic Markers after lightly penciling in new details to include the eyes of the mask, đź•·suggestion of a spider on the belly and the classic lines on the suit, including his feet. I also took a piece of metallic thread to create a faux web. No metallic thread, look for a piece of Easter Grass or other thread.

  • Red – R20, R24, R29 and R39
  • Blue – B01, B04 and B06
  • White- Posco White Marker Pen
  • Black Lines – Micron Fine Liner Pen
