Mad Hatter Girl Card - Santoro Gorjuss Stamps

This is my favorite of my Santoro Gorjuss Stamps, this one is called "The Hatter". I stamped her onto white cardstock, and colored her and the background in with Dick Blick Markers. The Dick Blick Markers are alcohol based, and some say as good as Copics, but at a much cheaper price. The only Copics I own are some skin color copics, so I couldn't really say if they are as good. I can say that I myself do like them very much, as does my pocket book. :-) I used decorative scissors to cut around the edge of the stamp and the yellow card stock behind it. I attached the stamp design to the yellow cardstock with double sided tape, then attached them to the beautiful scrapbooking paper (the green flowered background paper) It was in a set from Michaels. I love the bright colors, and thought it went well with how I colored my stamp. I'm one of those who does the stamps backwards. I've read that most people pick out the papers that they are going to use for their cards, then color their stamp according to the colors in their papers. I on the other hand color my stamp however I feel, then hope I can find some coordinating papers. LOL The butterfly stickers at the top are the only part of the card I'm not very fond of. I think it would have looked nicer with die cut butterflies, but at the time I didn't own a butterfly die set. I have sense corrected that. :-)

Happy Crafting All...

Mad Hatter Spray Paint Art

This piece of art I created to enter into a contest. The contest rules was you had to create something using Oramask 813 Stencil Film purchased from https://expressionsvinyl.com/ . I didn't win the contest :'-( but had fun making this piece anyway. What I used was a piece of semi smooth wood approximately 24"x18". I purchased the wood at Home Depot. The silhouette of the Mad Hatter (The Johnny Depp version) I found online. I transferred the silhouette into my Silhouette program, traced it in the program, and cut it with my Cameo. The Wording at the bottom is one of the scripts that came with my Silhouette program. I also cut it out with my Cameo. I then weeded the whole thing....it took a lot of time, but I think was worth it. I weeded it backwards, so there would be no film in the areas that I wanted the design to show. The only stencil I left was the stencil in the negative areas. Reason being this was to be applied to the wood and spray painted. First I add...

Wonder Woman Card

The image of Wonder Woman is NOT my image. I found her on Google. Not sure who is the artist, whoever it is, they are amazing. :-) It was already colored in as well. This was just a quick card I put together for one of my girlfriends that I work with. She is always working her rear end off, and doing more and more. I was joking with her that she must be wonder woman, I then saw this image and just had to make a card out of it for her! Something to make her smile, when her day sucks. I printed up the image on some off white cardstock, then attached it with double sided tape to black cardstock. I used some scrap paper I had that I thought went well with it, added some black see through ribbon, a couple stars, and a couple metal embellishments. The image and black paper were attached using foam tape, to give the card some dimension. The rest was secured using double sided tape. Quick and easy card. :-)

Alice in Wonderland-Stencil Art

I created this piece to go along with the one I did of the Mad Hatter. It is also made out of a piece of semi smooth wood approximately 24"x18". I also purchased this piece of wood at the same time as the one for the Mad Hatter. It was one piece that I had them cut for me. I then took it home and spray painted the whole thing with two coats of black spray paint. This design was also found on the web. I put the design into my silhouette program, traced it and cut it out of Oramask 813 Stencil Film I purchased from https://expressionsvinyl.com/ . I then weeded it out, removing all the negative pieces. I added my transfer tape, and removed the backing. I then put the design onto the painted piece of wood and removed the transfer tape, leaving the stencil secured to the wood. This time I decided to paint the design with acrylic paints, GLITTER acrylic paints!!! <3 GLITTER!!!! You can't really tell from the photo, but in person it shines like a diamond. :-) I sponge ...
