Ice Skating Marci

Hi all! Kristina here with another card and video for you guys. :)

Today I used the Ice Skating Marci stamp from La-La Land Crafts. Isn't she so cute?! I love her skating outfit! Although, now that I'm thinking about it, I should have colored her legs a different color so that was wearing tights. She's probably cold! LOL!

I used Copic markers to color Marci, so be sure to watch the video below to see the exact colors I used (they are shown in the top left corner of the video as I use them). I also used an M-Bossabilities folder from Spellbinders to add texture to the white background of the card, and the Merry Everything stamp set for the embossed sentiment.

Enjoy!

Nina Brackett & My Mind's Eye!

Hi All!
I hope you've had a relaxing weekend so far!  I love this time of the year - such a great time to get creative and SO much inspiration to be found!  Speaking of...here is a fun card by Nina Brackett!

Nina used some My Mind's Eye papers found in the whimsical Winter Wonderland collection.
Making a lot of Christmas trees this year?  Try the Sweet Folk Art die by Spellbinders so you don't have to hand cut them!

Aren't these three tree cards gorgeous too?!  I love that they're slightly different but they still coordinate.  What a great way to keep things fresh!

 

Here is are another card by Nina made using the Winter Wonderland cardstock!

Here are some supplies you might find yourself reaching for if you make cards like these:

She's an amazing artist, and I'm inspired by her daily! Below each card you will find similar ingredients to make your own version if you would like to!

Thanks for reading! Be sure to check our blog next Saturday for the second installment! In the meantime, did you know that there are TWO new holiday collections from Magnolia this year? Christmas Story & Nativity are both fantastic collections!
