Zany Zebras - With Rainbow Markers - Video Tutorial


Have you ever used Markers to 'ink' up your stamps? That's the technique I used for creating these cards in today's Video.

The card layout is a more simplified version of the one I used for my previous Video - I like it :o) So you'll probably see it again in the future too.

I used the wonderful Zany Zebras stamp set, which is a super cute set.


Daffodil Delight was the main colour used for this first card. 

The sentiment was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and overstamped using Versamark ink before heat embossing with Clear powder.


All the papers come from the Brights 6" Designer Series Paper pack.


This is the card I created in the Video. I used Granny Apple Green. This is such a simple layout and would work with lots of different colours. 

I inked up the stamp using the Stampin' Write Markers. These are water-based dye ink markers and are perfectly safe to use on your stamps. I first outlined the stamp using Basic Black and then I coloured all the stripes in Rainbow colours. These were all from the Brights and Regals collections.

These are the colours I used:
Real Red
Pumpkin Pie
Daffodil Delight
Granny Apple Green
Pacific Point
Rich Razzleberry
Highland Heather

Zany Zebras - Time To Celebrate


Here is my first card created using the super cute Zany Zebras stamp set! How adorable are these Zebras? :o) This stamp set is perfect for beginner stampers - you don't have to do any colouring on the main images at all :o)

This was a really quick card to create the only colour added was to the little hats - which were cut out by hand. 

I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink for stamping and coloured the Party Hats using the Stampin' Blends Alcohol markers.


The background paper is from our now retired Country Club Designer Series Paper pack.

Pampered Pets - Dog & Cat Cards - Video Tutorial


I've been playing with my Pampered Pets bundle again for today's Video :o) I love these products!


I decided to create both a Dog and a Cat card this time but keep the layouts basically the same. 


All the images in this set are adorable and very easy to colour. I stamped them with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them using the Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.


The sentiment was also stamped using Memento ink. It was then over-stamped using Versamark and heat embossed with Clear powder - I love the added dimension and shine this give :o)
