Let's Celebrate with Jane's Doodles

 Hello and welcome!  Today, I'll share a fun card with you featuring a new digital stamp set from Jane's Doodles!  This one is called Surf's Up. This is another fun, must have set.

I have an inexpensive laser printer. I wish it could handle heavier watercolour paper but sadly, it does not. It does, however, handle a 90lb weight mixed media paper. I used an old Canson spiral bound paper book. 

I'm not sure if it's my printer or the paper, but I find that some of the line work will fade or rub off. Easy fix with a fine liner pen though!

I used watercolour pencils to colour the images, then outlined them the best I could. I just had to add some sparkle and shine with a glitter pen and Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

I hope you enjoyed my card featuring this super cute set!

See you soon!

A Blog Named Hero with Jane's Doodles!

Hello everyone!! Tonight I made a card for the current A Blog Named Hero challenge.  This is my first time participating in one of their challenges and I'm super stoked because it involves two of my favourite things: clean and simple style and Jane's Doodles stamps!!

I was so excited to break out the Seamus stamp set!! I've had it for so long now and have never used it, shame on me.  I started by cutting a panel with a wonky stitched rectangle out of some grey cardstock and stamped some of the images onto some Neenah cardstock.  I did some VERY simple colouring with my Promarkers and fussy cut the images out.

I then went through my Hero Arts stash and found the perfect sentiment to go with Seamus!!  It comes from the set Stamp Your Own Cactus and it simply says "hug me".

For some finishing touches, I added some Clear Wink of Stella to the sun and clouds and some Glossy Accents to the sun and Seamus's eyes.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you like clean and simple Seamus!!
