Magengo | Happy Winter

  Hi, Ute here.... What for a special winter this year? 

We have no change to meet all the family, friends like all the years before. CORONA is still here and we have to step down this year, hope that next year will be normal, like before. 

Next week is the end of the special year... I wish, that we get a better 2021. 

A new card. a new inspiration ;)

I decided me this time to use an older stamp set from Magengo. I have more than one idea in my head, but this time I decided me to color on kraft paper with my Luminance Pencils. 

I used follow products:

I also need tie for coloring (Luminance Colors, from Caran D'Ache). I used a ribbon from my stuff. also a paper piece from my stuff. The sentiment is from Stampin UP and means "When things don't go that way, sprinkle Glitter on it".

How I made this card?

I use Pages on my PC and arrange the images near together. I print this scene on kraft stock. After printing I cut the card in A2 format (US format) and beginn with color. I colored the penguin first and thought it will be nicer, if the eyes are open, also I draw another border for the black body. After I finished the penguin, I color the snowman. Here I decided also to change the face a little bit, as the original. After coloring I add a snowy border, under this I add a paper trip from my stuff and a ribbon. I cut out a snow flake from the second set on foam. I hot embossed the snow flake and add this n the border. I add the sentiment., also details with my white gel pen and Glossy Accent and finished the card. 

I hope you like this idea. I wish you a wonderful NEW Year 2021.

Hugs Ute

Wie habe ich diese Karte gemacht?

After printing the funny stamp I color them with a few Alcohol Marker from my stuff. I randomly use the colors from different companies, like Copic or Spectrum Noir. I add a few details with an pencil in my image. After coloring I fuzzy cut the image. I use this time another format 6x6Inch card. I made the background by myself with a snow flake stamp set from Stampin UP (SU) and Distress Oxide Inks. After than I made a scene with a snow bank and trees. I add all to the card and at last I used a sentiment from SU. 

Nachdem ich den Stempel ausgedruckt habe, habe ich diesem mit meinen Alkohol Markern ausgemalt. Ich benutze mehrere Firmen, wie Copics oder Spectrum Noir. Auf fast allen meinen Colorationen nehme ich einen Schattenstift, um noch ein paar Details zur Geltung zu bringen. Nachdem ich damit fertig war, habe ich das Bild ausgeschnitten. Ich benutze hier eine 15x15cm Karte. Den Hintergrund habe ich selbst gemacht, mit einem Schneeflocken Stempel von Stampin UP und verschiedenen Distress Oxide Inks. Ich habe mich auch diesmal für eine Szene entschieden, also habe ich aus weissen Papier einen Boden ausgestanzt, sowie zwei Bäume. Diese habe ich mit einen Glitzerstift angemalt. 

Als letztes habe ich noch ein Sentiment gewählt von SU. 

Thanks for visiting my blog. Wish you a happy crafting.

Magengo | We are blessed

 Hi, ... and I come with a new inspiration for you.

Do you know the Christmas story? 

I grew up as a Christian. Every Christmas we remember to the brith of Jesus. They pink text is a text from the Bible, it tells the story of Jesus birth. I used a King James Version, maybe an older one. I have no idea which translation is easier to understand in English. 

"... and it came to pass in thoose days, that there went out of decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the worl should be taxed. This taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria. And all went be taxed, every into his own city, Josef also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, witch called Bethlehem. To be taxed with Mary his epoused wife, being great with a child.And so it was, that, while they where there, the days were accomplished that be should be delivered.  She brought forth her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

and there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. The angle of the Lord came upon them and the glory of the Lord shone around them and the shepherds were very afraid.The angle said unto them, fear no, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be all to the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. ... You shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward men. ..." 
LUKE 2 | 4-14 (KJV)

"... When they (the 3 wise men's) heard the king, they is departed. The star which they saw in the east went before them till it came and stood over where the young Child was..."
MATTHEW 2 | 9 (KJV)

I was inspired the the story, as I made this card... I think, that all saw the star in the east and all they which are follow found Jesus wrap in swaddling clothes and was lying in a manger. 

 

I need follow product:

time for coloring. I used Alcohol Marker. The Sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "blessed".

How I made this card?

I add the fox and the hedgehog closely together on the left side from my card. I wasn't sure, which background I will color, thought on a star... I am a student from Sandy Allnock, let me inspire and learn a lot. So I found the raising star and thought it will be fit perfectly to the story and I try it with my Spectrum Noir Marker. I add shadow to the critters and finished the card with a little glitter to the star. I found a sentiment from my stuff and I use it with white embossing powder on the dessert bottom.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas, be blessed and stay safe. 

I hope you like this idea. 

Hugs Ute

CAS Birdhouses Christmas Card

 Today I was playing after work with a Challenge from Create a Smile.

Ok, the MOODBOARD is really a Challenge for me. Hmmm, I saw this colors and fall in love, but with all the other things... I thought about, what can I do? 

I decided to play with this challenge: 

Something with rain or a window or yarn ( two colors green and grey) or recipe...

I looked at my Adventskalender (is only in German) and saw the bird stamp on my table and the idea was come...

I fall in love with this cute birds and why not to use a sentiment from the calendar?

I stamped firstly the houses on wooden paper and cut them out. I cut also the circle in the middle out and add a paper, which I was colored in a brown tone. Than I add a few shadows on the houses and colored the top with a warm grey and the ground with a lighter grey. The lights i colored only white. 

I add cord on the card and use liquid glue. The cord is white and silver. For the green I used the Rosemary from the Hero Arts Set CM155, it is an older stamp set and I couldn't find another name for this set.  I stamped this 4 times with two different green inks and add this to the top of the card over the cord. 

I used two birds from the set. I colored them with my Spectrum Noir Tri Blend Marker and add this on the houses. 

I stamped the sentiment "nun wird es besinnlich" from the calendar on my card in two different colors. This means "now it is getting thoughtful". 

I add white on the birds to for accents. At last I add a few more glitter on the roof and the herbs. 

I hope you like my card idea. 

I wish you a wonderful 2. Advent and hope you will find some time for crafting. 

Hugs Ute

Wie habe ich diese Karte gemacht?

I print the little guys on alcohol friendly paper and color them with my Triblend Makers. After colroing I add details with a pencil. I cut the image out with my Scan and Cut Machine, with a small white border. I use an A2 card base and sprinkle black and golden spaltter on it. I add the image with foam tape on the base. After than I add the sentiment (it is German and means, Happy Holiday wishes).

Now I add Glossy Accent to the Christmas balls and add glitter to it, I also add Glossy Accent top the candy cone.

Ich drucke mir zuerst das Bild aus und male es dann aus. Diesmal benutze ich meine Triblend Marker von Spectrum Noir. Anschliessend benutze ich meine Buntstifte für Details auf dem Bild. Ich gebe das Bild in die Scan und Cut Maschine und schneide es aus. Dabei lasse ich einen kleinen weissen Rand. Nun die Basis Karte...Es ist eine A2 ( US Format ) Karte. Diese bespritze ich mit Schwarz und Gold und habe so einen ganz edlen Hintergrund. Nach dem Trocknen klebe ich das Bild mit Abstandsklebern (Foam) auf die Kartenbasis auf. Nun stempele ich noch das Sentiment. Zum Schluss füge ich noch Glossy Accents auf meinem Bild zu (Christbaum Kugeln und Candy Cone). Auf die Kugeln gebe ich noch ein wenig Glitzer und wieder st eine Karte fertig.

After this I distress the paper with only 2 Distress INK Oxide- I used Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch and distress the background. As next I use a water spray and going over the card. For the golden sprinkles on my card I use an old box (from my mail) and put the card into the box, then I use the watercolor GOLD.

Coloring Tote bag from La La Land Crafts

I ordered the Spring Box from La La Land and in there was a Tote Bag. On this was an uncolored image. Hmmm, not sure how to color. So I put it away. 

I thought I need a tutorial, but I saw never one, so I wait to color...

Every time I saw it at my La La Land Crafts products and today I found my courage to try the coloration with my Inktense Colors. 

I began to color the flowers first. I like the brown lines, so it make it easy to color.  I must say I like the coloring at the fabric. So I add details. 

The result is:

Never thought that my bag can looks like this... I am so happy with the result. 

Hope you like my inspiration and I can't see more Tote Bag from you ;)

Wish you a wonderful week and hope you will find crafty time.

Wie habe ich diese Karte gemacht?

I print the image on card stock and colored it with my Copics. After coloring I add a few pencils for more details. I cut out the image with my Scan and Cut machine.  I cut out a white cardstock 4x5,25Inch and use a snowflake Embossing folder (Stampin Up) for bring little details on the background. I place the birds on it and stamped the sentiment. It is a German sentiment, thats mean "from far away lovely holiday greetings". I glue the white embossed cardstock to the A2 card (chocolate brown) and add the birds with foam tape to the card. At last I use Glossy Accent for the phones and beak, also a little glutter to the white (snow, hats).

Ich habe zuerst die Vögel ausgedruckt und danach mit Copiccs ausgemalt. Nachdem ich fertig war, habe ich mit Buntstiften weiter ausgemalt, um so mehr Details oder Effekte zu bekommen. Als letztes habe ich die Vögel mit der Scan and Cut ausgeschnitten, mit einem kleinen weissen Rand. Ich habe mir weissen Cardstock vorbereitet (4x 5,25 Inches) und diesen mit einer Schneeflocken Embossing folder geprägt (Stampin Up). Meine Karte hat die Grösse A2 (US Format) und ist dunkel braun (Schokolade). Den weissen Hintergrund habe ich auf die Karte angebracht. Die Vögel habe ich mit Schaumstoff Abstands Kleber befestigt und das Sentiment an die Seite gestempelt (auch von Stampin Up). Zu allerletzt habe ich die Telefone und Schnäbel mit Glossy Accent verschönert, ebenfalls habe ich noch ein wenig Glitzer auf die weissen Stellen, wie Schnee und Mütze aufgetragen.

I print this dog on alcohol friendly paper and colored him with Copics. I add some pencils for more details and cut them out with a small white border around the dog. I use an A2 card base and add some leaves behind the dog. At last I add a sentiment, this means Do you know? That you are magical, This is from Stampin Up. 

Ich habe den Hund auf Alkoholfreundlichen Papier ausgedruckt und ihn anschliessend ausgemalt. Nachdem ich mit der Coloration fertig war, habe ich den Hund ausgeschnitten.
