Happy New Year from Kennedy Grace Creations!

Happy New Year to you all!  It's Brenda here, and I'm kicking off 2018 for Kennedy Grace Creations.  This month we are switching it up a bit and instead of having a mood board, we have a fun Tic Tac Toe Board for inspiration.


I picked the bottom row to inspire my card so I will be using buttons, sequins and flowers on my creation.  It seemed so perfect with all the wonderful flower sets and the awesome sequin collections.  I chose to use the beautiful stamp set Kindness Medley and a wonderful sequin collection called Enchanted Evening.  Here's what happened -


I stamped the flower (Tic) image three times on heavyweight vellum with VersaMark and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  I colored the flowers on the back of the vellum using Copic Markers.  The sentiment was stamped with VersaFine ink to get the nice dark image.  I love the size of this stamp which is also in the Kindness Medley set.  I put my ScanNCut to work cutting out the sentiment while I fussy cut the line of vellum stamped flowers.  I generally find vellum a challenge to work with because it can be difficult to hide  the adhesive.  No problem here, the coloring hit it nicely.


I added a few sequins (Tac) from the Enchanted Evening mix.  This mix is so nice!  I'm really wanting to make a shaker with it.  Just take a look at all these yummy sequins and beads -


To complete my row, I got out some tiny buttons (Toe) from my stash.  They matched the flower color so perfectly.  The buttons were tied with a thin gold twine and adhered to the card base to finish things off.


That's it for me today.  I wish all good things for you in the coming year.  Stay tuned for the good things planned here at Kennedy Grace Creations!  

Blessings,
Brenda

It's Heidi on the blog today

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing well!  Today I have my third and last guest design post for you all.  For this fun and colorful card I stamped one of the pretty flowers from the “Grace’s Little Note” stamp set from Kennedy Grace Creations with Memento’s “Rich Cocoa” ink on Copic friendly paper. After coloring all of the flowers with my Copic Markers I used a black Copic Multiliner 0.3 on the hearts of the flowers and created some white lines on the flowers and the leaves to make them more interesting to look at, using a white Gelly Roll pen.   The background was created very easily by stamping one of the sentiments from the “Grace’s Little Note’s” stamp set repeatedly on some crème coloured linen textured card stock. The same sentiment was used on the vellum part with black ink. If you would like to know more about how I made this card and what exact colours I used then you can go over to my website for more details: http://www. mak...
