AECP - markers technique

-

Hi everyone

 

This card I created for my AECP course Magical Markers Technique.

I decide to try the pouncing technique Sara showed. I never did that before, so I was very curious how this will work.







Here in Switzerland is winter and I needed some spring vibes – so I went for the Magnolia Ballerina Stamp Set. I heat embossed the flowers in white. This helped me to stay into the lines and I also really love the look of it.


Then I started to adding colors using tree markers. R601, R502, C003. I added just a little bit of the darkest color and then I pounced the color with the brighter one. I was really surprised how the ink started to blend in each other. And I think don’t even see that I only pounced the color on the petals.










After die cutting I traced the outline with a dark marker which was matching the color of the paper. I found like this the flower really stand out. I added some white splatters in the background for more interest and heat embossed my sentiment in white.



I’m quite happy with the result, especially because I never used this technique before and I don’t have that much experience with alcohol markers.

  Hi there!   Thanks for stopping by. You must be here from   Caly Person . Otherwise you can go back to the Altenew Blog  or grab another coffee and just have fun hopping around.😉 Today I’m going to show you some cards I created with all the great products which came out with the  Marvelous Monthly July Series . I love all of them.   My first card I created using the Build-A- Garden Tulips and Friends Stamp & Stencil Set. This is actually one of my favorites because I love to color flowers with stencils. This is so easy and you just receive amazing results. And I don’t know about you, but I have a lot of different inks and so I can use them all. Anyway, here is my card. I stamp the image with black ink and embossed it clear. Then I colored the tulips by using the stencil, the stamp and finally I added also I little bit of watercolor.  I created a background with watercolor too. Then finally I added some splatter and a sentiment from the same stamp set.

Hello everyone!   Thank you so much for visiting my blog. You must be here from  LauraJane s  Blog. U nbelievable how creative she always is!   I created some cards I would like to share with you.   My first card I made with the new Daisies stencil that coordinates with embossing folder. I first colored the embossing folder with a brayer and run it through my die cut machine. Then colored the flowers with the stencils in blue and purple. I love this color combination. And with the stencil it is so easy to get great results.  After coloring I put the paper back in the embossing folder and run it through again, so I got back some of the dimension I may have lost with the coloring. I decided to take a small sentiment from the Floral Halo Stamp Set and fussy cut it out. I didn’t want to distract from this beautiful image. I find the daisies literally smile at you, so you certainly feel loved. My next card I created with the Blooming Flower Bed Stencil. With this you can create your own pat

Hi everyone!   Thanks for stopping by. You must be here from  Laurie Willison s Blog. So today I’m going to show you some cards I created with some products from the  September Winter Magic Release Blog Hop. Most of the cards are with Christmas themes. I really love this special magical time. But I don’t know about you, it is also the time when I miss loved ones who are no longer with us the most. So, I tried to add a little bit of sparkle and shine on all my cards, because this makes me just feel happy.   My first card I created with the Poinsettia & Berries Stamp Set. O stamped the flowers and leaves and die cut them with the coordinating dies. As background I took the Dotted Pinwheels Stamp Set.  I really love this background because it adds so much interest to a background and its also very versatile. Then I assembled all together. To finish the card I Added some glossy accent to the flowers and berries.                                         ----------   My next card I did wi
