Peek A Boo Guest Designer Annie Part 2!!!

Hello Creative Friends!

Annie Collins here once again with some more cards using the beautiful stamps.

The first set of cards I created using the
I used the With Love Daisy flowers set for my first card.


This card is an A2 size (4.25"x 5.50"), I created the card panel by using Any Tangerine pattern paper which I layered on to Shimmery Blue card stock. I then colored my image with Copic Markers. Next I applied some Wink of Stella Glitter pen in Clear. I then added the images to the panels and adhered them to the card. I finished off the card with some Gold glitter enamel dots. I added the sentiment to the top of the card layering in on the same papers as the card panel.



For my next card I used the Panda Hugs Set. These little guys just make me smile.



This card is an A2 size (4.25"x 5.50"), I created the card panel by using a die and cutting the three section frame. I also cut some grass from pattern paper. I then backed the frame with blue swirl pattern paper. I then stamp can colored the images. I then fussy cut them and adhered them to the frame. Now, for the sentiment I wanted it to fill the space in the frame so I used die cut letters and alphabet stickers. I redid the sentiment which is just perfect for these to hungry little pandas.


Thank you so very much for stopping by today. Please make sure to visit the Peek-A-Boo Design Store to purchase these wonderful stamp sets.

I am going to share some different style creations today!

CAS Madhubani style card 1


Steps: 

 -I started with a textured heavy white CS using dual-stitched-rounded-rectangle-dieI blended the centre area of my focal panel using tumbled glass, fossilized amber and twisted citron distress inks. Added some golden color splatters.

-Stamped the beautiful peacock with its matching elements from new Madhubani Stamp set 
  in Archival Jet Black ink. Colored them using my Pigma watercolor brush pens with some Japanese brush pens too. Fussy cut them all. Added some textures using my golden gelly roll pen.



-Stamped the sentiment from new With Love Daisy stamp setadded light green color and highlighted it with golden gelly roll pen, fussy cut it.

More visible in close up pic:



-Adhered the focal panel on my card base using pop dots and created a little scene.

-Added few Swarovski crystals in different shapes and sizes. Tada the card was done!

Trio fold window card 2

I just love these daisies, such a happy flower!



-I started with a 15"x18" CS that I cut to measure 6"X 17" and scored twice - once at 5" and other at 11". Once I folded all three sections. I created a window in the very first section, great idea to highlight the image out of the window! So I took my dual stitched rectangle die and set it where I wanted it on the front panel of my card.

-I wanted to cover my card front panel, so I took some polka dot PP from Summer Bloom PP stack and created a mat using the same die. Showing in the pic.....



- Now I created the same mat for the second panel.Then matted up my main image and set it in the inner portion of my inside fold so that it would peek out through the window I created. I colored these daisies with Copic Markers, fussy cut them. Here is a close up: 



-I placed some cute buttons to secure the front window panel underneath them, they are from some wrapping papers, fussy cut and matted them! Wonders!!!

-And here is the entire centre panel looks like: 
-The sweet friendship sentiment is just so perfect that comes with this daisy stamp set!


- I matted a piece of Daisy print PP from Recollections stack- Pretty as a Peacock. Created another mat with placing a polka dotted panel as a pocket attachment and provide an extra mat to write the message or add a self-pic!



This creation can be used for any right occasion by using other sentiments providing in this stamp set! 


Rococo Mixed Media Wall Decor 3

Love this sweet Rococo stamp set with so many possibilities there! 




-I colored the images with Staedtler watercolor pencils. Fussy cut them. 

-Now started with a paper plate, I coated it with gesso 2 times.  Added a paper napkin to create the water pond as shown in the pic: 

-Created a sunrise scene in the BG using pearl acrylic paints and also applied a thin coat of crackle medium too.



-Took a 10"x10" cardboard, colored it with same color palette and using my own designed stencil :),  I applied gesso to it. Tied the upper part with a jute cord and applied a weaved jute lace at the bottom as shown in the pic. Cut the Inspire word 3 times to make a thick pile and adhered it.



-Now created the whole scene with the images with lots of depth and dimension. And finished it with some MDF embellishments and beaded lace and some Tim Holtz idea-ology chitchat words! 



-Now ready to enhance the beauty of your wall!!!!!

Peek A Boo Guest Designer Annie!!!


Hello Creative Friends!

I would like to introduce myself,  my name is Annie Collins and I am honored to be Peek-a-boo's Guest Design Team Member for the month of October.  I was so excited to create cards with such  beautiful stamps.

The first set of cards I created using the Madhubani Stamp Set.  I used the Peacock and flowers of the set for my first card.

 
This card is an A2 size (4.25"x 5.50"), I created the card panel by using Distress Ink in Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Seedless Preserve. Then I sprinkled some Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Gold. While my panel dried I colored the images with Copic Markers; then used a gold gel pen to add some highlights. Once the gel pen was dry I applied a bit of Wink of Stella in clear shimmer to the Peacock. I then mounted the watercolor panel on peacock blue cardstock. I then added the images to the panels and adhered them to the card. I finished off the card with Liquid Pearls in Peacock.


This card is an A2 size (4.25"x 5.50"), I created the card panel by using Distress Ink in Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Seedless Preserve.  While my panel dried I colored the images with Copic Markers; then used a gold gel pen to add some highlights. I then die cut the word Congratulations from white and black card stock. I then layered and adhered them together. Once the watercolor panel was dry I die cut a circle from it to use as a layer behind the two Elephants. To add a grounding element for the elephants I covered a scrap piece of card stock with some floral washi tape' I then cut fish tails into both ends. I layered the the washi tape on top of the leaves from the stamp set. All the components were then layered on top of black card stock panel. Which was adhered to the card front. I finished the card with Gold shimmer enamel dots.


 For my final card today, I used the Panda Hugs Stamp Set. This set is simply adorable. From the set I used the pandas with balloons. I saw these two love pandas letting their heart take flight.


This card is an A2 size (4.25"x 5.50"), I created the card panel by using Distress Oxide Ink in Broken China and Faded Jeans. I then sprinkled with water. I then ran a few stitch dies (heart, loop & wave) over the panel to create a wind feel. Next, I die cut  the entire panel with a cross-stitch die, I then die cut some white card stock with a cloud die. I colored the balloons with Distress Markers in Mustard Seed, Worn Lipstick, Broken China, Seedless Preserve & Twisted Citron. I then applied some Wink of Stella in Clear Shimmer to all the balloons. I adhered all the components to the card base. I then added the sentiment which I then added the word LOVE (Heidi Swapp stamp) stamp in Distress Oxide Ink Fire Brick. I finished the card with a red enamel heart, a purple epoxy heart and red flat back pearl heart.
