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.

Whimsy Stamps Inspiration Four Calling Birds

   It is a new week for inspiration...  This time I share the digital stamp "Four Calling Birds"... They are so super cute...

Eine neue Woche, eine neue Inspiration... Dieses Mal zeige ich Euch den digital Stempel "Four Calling Birds", d.h."Vier rufende Vögel" die werden wohl eher zwitschern (LOL)...

I made this card as inspiration blog post for:

How I made this card?
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.

Magengo Frohe Weihnachten

  Hello Ute again, with a new idea from Magengo. Christmas comes soon and I share another Christmas card today...

How I made this card?

After the arranging the stamp images on the right place I print out the image on alcohol friendly paper, because this time I colored with Copic Markers. I made a simply sky, and colored than the houses and at last the bunnies and the moon, also the shadow. On the sky I add some white dots. 

I use again a German sentiment from Stampin Up and this means Merry Christmas and much luck in the New Year.

We can also have temperature from 20°C, but this is normally not so often... This little doggy fits perfect to a warm, great fall day...

Eine neue Woche, eine neue Inspiration... November Wetter unterschiedlich. Es kann kalt sein, regnerisch, nebelig oder es kann sogar sehr schön sein, blauer Himmel, Sonnenschein, bunte Bäume... auch bis zu 20°C...

How I made this card?
Wie habe ich diese Karte gemacht?

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. Dabei habe ich auf eine kleine weisse Umrandung geachtet. Auf einer A2 US Format Karte habe ich Blätter in den Hintergrund des Hundes arrangiert und dann alles fest geklebt. Als letztes habe ich das Sentiment auf der Karte angebracht.

Magengo Weihnachtspost

  Hi, Ute here for Magengo... with another inspiration...

How I made this card?

At first I open my page programm, because I work on a MAC, but it also works with Word on the Windows PC. There I open all images in PNG, which I like to use and change the size and sometimes the direction. So I arrange the images like I want, if I am like the scene I print it out, but before I must decide, which color medium I prefer for this card. On the picture you can see, that I prefer for this card alcohol marker... So I have printed out on alcohol friendly paper. 

Now I color the image and add details with my Luminace pencils. I also add glitter to the Christmas decoration (WOW Embossing powder) and I add snow appliqué to the hat at the bear. At last I use a white pen for details. I stamped a German sentiment to the card from Stampin Up...

#10minChristmascard Create a Smile | Die Cut

  what for a fun CHALLENGE... cards in no time, every week another idea..

It is already the third week... Hmmm, I was sure, if I have Die Cuts from CAS... So I searched all my stuff. I saw a wonderful Snowflake, but not at my home. 

I was searching and searching... If you have a lot of crafty stuff at home you will find something. I found a card of Yupo paper I worked on with blue, violett tone. I found an idea. Why not to use a sentiment die cut or a snowflake from an other company?

the idea was born...

What do you need for this card?

* a white card base A2 (US format)

* prepared paper from Yupo or alternativ a piece pattern paper, also a glitter or shiny paper for the sentiments/ Snowflake

* paper cutter
* die cut's (I use a snowflake and a sentiment, which means Christmas)

* optional a stamp set or embellishments

How I made this card?

I set the time and beginn to work. I cut the background sentiment at first, so I know how much paper I still have.  I have enough to cut 4 squares (1.5Inch x1.5 Inch). I glue the squares on the card base. 

Now I cut the normal sentiment and glue it on the background / shadow word, then to the bottom on the card. The card looks empty and I use the word zauberhaft (German, means magical) for the other word. I die cut the Snowflake from the same shiny paper and add this on the squares. At last I use some rhinestones for more details. 

What says the timer, after finish the card?

8 minutes and 56 sec. 

I hope you like this idea and use your stuff too, to make a similar card.

Today starts a new Challenge by bastel-traum.blogspot.ch

Dieses Mal geht es rund um das Thema Winter. Schaue bei uns auf dem Blog vorbei und lasse Dich inspirieren. Jedes DT Mitglied hat sich etwas besonderes einfallen lassen. 

This time is the theme Winter. Please feel free to visit our challenge blog to show what the talented DT made for wonderful inspiration for you. 

Wie werden diese Hintergründe gemacht?
How I made this backgrounds?

Winter oder Weihnacht oder gemischt? Ich war nicht sicher, was ich für eine Karte werkeln werde. Zum Schluss ist diese hier entstanden... Ich habe den Himmel mit Copics gemalt nach einer Idee von Sandy Allnock. Ich dachte, es wäre cool, wenn die Füchse einen Stern nachschauen, wie einen, der zur Zeit Jesus Geburt geschienen hat. Dies musste ja ein ganz grosser gewesen sein. Die Füchse sind von Lawn Fawn "Upon a Star". Ich habe sie auch mit Copics ausgemalt und mit Details versehen (Buntstiften). Danach habe ich sie ausgeschnitten und auf der Karte arrangiert. Noch ein wenig Schatten und fertig. Das Sentiment kommt von Stampin Up. Zu letzt habe ich den Hintergrund auf eine Karte geklebt.

Winter or Christmas or..:? I wasn't sure, what I will show you... I find this little cute foxes and I thought it will be cool, if the look to the Polar star a big one, like the same as Jesus was born? So I decided to draw my own sky with Copics. After drawing (idea are from Sandy Allnock) I color the foxes and cut them out. The sentiment is from Stampin Up. I add the foxes to the card and glue the sky background to a base card.

#10minChristmascard Create a Smile | sentiment

 what for a fun CHALLENGE... cards in no time, every week another idea..

It is already the second week... and now it is a challenge to bring a 10 min card...

The idea comes from Jennifer McGuire.

first try... no, it needs to much time, because masking, but I want to show it also.

My plan is to show a faster card with sentiments and an image... because I am a cute card maker. It challenged me and it make a lot of fun...

Now I did it, I need 9min and 55 seconds... under 10min.

Here is the second card.

Tip, with the Karin Promakers you can really fast color the image and you can add a pencil for details. I have mask the image for repeat stamping the text, but the masking or repeat stamping must not perfect... looks a little retro.

the last card I made is with a Freebie stamp from Janes Doodle, but I forgot to set the timer, so I didn't know exactly how long I need for this card, but it wasn't so long... 

Here I have to print first the image out. I use Mix Media paper (because Watercoloring). I made a fast coloring and add details like before with a pencil. After I sprinkle black and golden to the background, otherwise the card looks so empty. At last I stamped the sentiment and add a little Gold to the word...

You see, not much time and I have 3 cards... maybe it is a little more than 30 min for all, but I don't need a hour...

Hope you liked my idea's... So let begin the next step for the next week DIE CUT... OMG, I must search, I think I have not enough dies from CAS, but I want play with her products, ok sounds like a Challenge for me...

So see you next week again.

Whimsy Stamps Inspiration Christmas Angle

  It is a new week for inspiration...  Chrissy drawn a wonderful image, call Christmas Angel. This is really sweet, she holds also a little bird in her hands. 

Eine neue Woche, eine neue Inspiration... Chrissy hat einen wunderschönen Engel gemalt. Dieser hält auch noch einen kleinen Vogel ind er Hand.

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. At next I uses a card base A2 and use my stencil Sun Rays for the first layer and than I use the next stencil Star Galaxie for a glowing background. I add a little sprinkles too. An Angel lives in heaven, so I think clouds will be perfect. I cut  out clouds with the Grasses and Cloud  Edge Die Set and add this on the bottom from the card. On the first cloud I stamp the sentiment from "Enjoy the little things" stamp set. I put all together and add a few diamonds on the card. At last I add here or there a little glitter. 

Ich habe zuerst den Engel ausgedruckt und danach mit Copiccs ausgemalt. Nachdem ich fertig war, habe ich mit Buntstiften weiter ausgemalt, um so mehr Details oder Effekte zu bekommen. Danach habe ich den Engel an meiner Scan and Cut Maschine ausgeschnitten und beiseite gelegt. Nun widme ich mich der Basiskarte A2 US Format. Ich benutze zwei Schablonen ( Sun Ray und Star Galaxy), um den Hintergrund zu gestalten. Auch spritze ich ein wenig Farbe darauf. Da Engel meiner Meinung nach im Himmel wohnen, musste ich ein paar Wolken finden. Ich habe zwei Wolken ausgestanzt ( Grass and Cloud Edge Die Set). Auf die grössere Wolke habe ich den Text gestempelt (Mache die kleinen Dinge mit viel Liebe oder so ähnlich) vom Stempelset "Enjoy the little things".Nun habe ich alles auf die Karte arrangiert und befestigt. Zum Schluss habe ich noch einige Diamanten darauf befestigt.

Whimsy Stamps Inspiration A Blustery Day

  It is a new week for inspiration... November weather is cold, warm, rainy, windy or foggy, sometimes we have also snow... This little boy fit's perfectly to the month.

Eine neue Woche, eine neue Inspiration... November Wetter ist kalt, warm, regnerisch, windig oder nebelig, manchmal schneit es auch. Dieser kleine Junge passt perfekt zum Monat.

How I made this card?
Wie habe ich diese Karte gemacht?

I print this little guy on alcohol friendly paper and colored it with my Copics. I decided me to color also the background with 3 different grey tones. It is a windy and snowy day. I use an A2 format (US) and use Navi blue card. I cut silver glitter paper a little bit taller than the picture with the boy. I add all to the card. I use a sentiment from Create a Smile, it is German and means "snowflake, snowflake, when do you come snowed?".It is a German song, not sure, if it exists in English too.

Ich habe den niedlichen kleinen Jungen auf Alkohol Marker Papier ausgedruckt und mit meinen Copics ausgemalt. Für den Himmel, habe ich mich für 3 Grautöne entschieden, da es ein windiger und verschneiter Tag sein sollte. Ich benutze das amerikanische A2 Format und nutze hier eine Navi-blaue Karte. Nun nutze ich Silber Glitzer Papier als Hintergrund von meinen Bild, das ich gestaltet habe. Das Sentiment kommt von Create a Smile.

Decorate the Christmas Tree

             .... today I will share you a Christmas card from the Christmas Mice digital stamp set. 

I made a scene card again. This time a really easy one. I draw a flow on the card ans made a wooden pattern on the card and color it. For the wall I decided me only for a little Distress Oxide ink technique, so that the tree with the mice's are in the focus. 

How I made this card?

I arrange all the images I want to the card on the paper. My card is 8,5 Inches x 3,5 Inches. and print it out. I color the images with my Copic Markers and my Luminace pencils and add a background. For details I use a golden pen and a silver pen. Also a snow pen (it is a liquid, if you heat them, it looks fluffy). I die cut the sentiment and finished the card.
