Hop To It :)

Hello crafty friends. 

I'm sharing a card today which I made using the new Tonic Studios Showcase set.

This one here - 

It's a whopper of a set -  you get 34 dies and 21 stamps and there's 36% off at the mo. 

The thing I like about the set is that there's other things you can use it for, so it's for life and not just for Easter :) 

And this is one of the cards I made with it  - 

I used Nuvo Alcohol pens to colour everything in. 

And the little beads on the grass are Prills - Tonic don't do them anymore which is a shame because I quite like them.

We have a green gingham bow today - I've given the black and white one a day off lol.

Mt favourite bit of the card - the cute little carrots. 

I coloured them in and then I applied some Nuvo Crystal Glaze. 

I think it makes them look so cute.

That's my little bunny card and I'll share more over the next few days. 

 I've popped the affiliate links below in case you want to nab one of these sets or have a look.

Also, I've done a YouTube video where you can see the dies and stamps in a bit more detail, plus some other samples I made with the set to give you a few more ideas hopefully. And there's a tutorial to put together a pop up card. 

If you get a sec and want a mooch, you can se it here -

Right I'll be off then. 

I'll see you tomorrow with another bit of cardage and until then,  take care and stay safe xx

No Place Like Gnome

Hello lovelies - hope we are all OK today and that nobody has been too badly affected by these dreadful floods.

So I'm sharing my sweet Polkadoodles Gnome Is Where The Heart Is card today - I think I mentioned it yesterday.

 I cannot tell you how much I love these images :) 

And I LOVE colouring them - I could do this all day.

I coloured her with quite a few Copics and then went over a few places with my polychromos pencils.

I actually remembered to write down the pens I used and they were - 

Skin - E000, E00, E11, E13, E50 R00, R05

Clothes & shoes - C00, C0, C3, C4, C5, C9, R00, R05, R17, R27, R59

Flowers -  Y03, Y08

Plantpot -  E000, E13, YR00 YR20

Grass -  YG00, YG03, YG95

Grounding C00, C1

I might have got the colours mixed up for the plant pot - I'll have to check!!

I stamped out the heart from the set then coloured it with R27 and cut it out. Then I covered it with Tonic Studios Crystal Glaze before adding some Posca Pen dots. 

I also gave her a Posca Pen polka dot hat and ribbons because I like her to match!!

That's rather good alliteration there!!

And you'll notice that the gingham ribbon is back :)

Didn't take long did it lol.

I stamped out the flowers then cut them out (badly - I am rubbish at cutting out)  and then doused them with glitter. I also added glitter to the flowers on the actual image.

I shouldn't have favourites, but ....

Right I better be off. 

I'll be back tomorrow with some Easter goodies and some very bright and zingy colours. 

I thought it would cheer us all up a bit.

I'll add my affiliate links below and I'll see you then. 

Take care and stay safe and well xx
