Windy Winter Scene w/ Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be using a the Ai Sledding Window Set (5454)! This set is part of the Ai Shadowbox Window Collection and there are several sets in this series. In order to create a Shadowbox Window card you would need to purchase the Ai Shadowbox Window Set (5408). This will create a fun dimensional effect on your card. However, today will be using this image separately in order to create a magical windy winter scene!

If you would like to have some detailed instructions and see some cards that I have created using the Shadowbox Window please click on the links below:

To get started on today’s card we will stamp and color in the pretty winter scene using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Shadow Pink, Pale Rose, Pale Yellow, Haze Blue, Aquamarine Blue, Smoky Teal, Plum Gray, Plum Mist, Lt Gray, Cool Gray 3, Cool Gray 6. As I mentioned in the video, several of the colors that I used today are from the new set of colors and I will link the video below. In this video I will talk about these newer smoky colors and also doing a sample swatch of each of the colors.

Next, we can create the windy sky using a windy sky background stamp and we will be inking this up using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Pads. We will using some blending brushes in order to soften the look of the background. Now let’s add some spattering with water and then some white gesso for the look of snow.

By adding layers of black cardstock and some foam tape we can really highlight the focal image and make it stand out!

Finally, let’s add some pretty gems in a variety of blue colors and a variety of sizes!

Art Impressions Feline Snuggle Slimline Card

Hello Ai Fans!!!

Todays card is inspired by the current Art Impressions Blog Challenge which is called “Feline Crazy”. You are welcome to participate in this fun challenge if you wish by creating a card of your own and submitting it to the challenge. Oh and….there are PRIZES involved here….yay!!! We can’t wait to see what you create!

So the idea is to create a project in any cat theme….just keep in mind that you do want the cat to be the focal point of the project.

So for my card and video I have created a fun winter scene with the little snowman from Art Impressions Chubby Snowman Set (5351) and the precious cat from the Art Impressions Feline Set (5369). We will alter the snowman image slightly so that we can place our adorable little cat in his arms for a winter snuggle!

I was thinking that maybe for some of you the thought of filling an entire slimline card might be a little too time consuming or intimidating. So I’ve created todays card to inspire you to look at these a little differently and to show you how you can create a fun card by just leaving some “white space”.

We will do some simple masking to create the sky section on this card! We will also add some paw prints in the snow which will fill in some of the space on the bottom section of the card. We will then add a sentiment, some vellum snowflakes, and some sparkly embellishments to complete our scene!

If you love this Ai Feline Stamp Set then you may want to check out my Art Impressions Let’s Pawty Card !

And…if you love the Chubby Snowman Set you may want to check out my fun little shaker Art Impressions Chubby Snowman Shaker Card !
