Spring Happy Birthday Card!

Hi, Marina is here and I'm going to inspire you with fresh spring colors of my card! I'm dreaming about Spring and it's beautiful flowers! So I've found some of them in the  Friendship Blessings   Stamp Set :) It was a real pleasure to color these beauties with Zig Clean Color Markers. I used Cobalt Blue, Blue, Violet, Light Violet and Yellow colors. To mix the colors I used a waterbrush. Happy Birthday Sentiment is from the amazing  Just A Rose  Set! I'm in love with these stylish sentiments and use them a lot! I also picked a pair of sequins from the  Chantilly Cream  and Leather&Pink Lace mixes as little accents. At the end I sprinkled all the card with a perl spray to make it sparkle! Thanks for stopping by! Be inspired!  Please be sure to follow the Kennedy Grace Creations blog , facebook , twitter , instagram and pinterest . Our Design Team has great projects to inspire you with our great stamp sets. 

Flower box

I know Christmas is on everyone's mind right now but I'm bringing you some floral delights today!   I thought it was about time I make a box card and I knew just which flowers to use!   Without any delay, here is my first picture of today's project. Isn't it just lovely??  All of the flowers are from the same stamp set -- Friendship Blessings .  The set comes with the main cluster of three images but I wanted some single flowers.  With a bit of creative masking and delicate cutting, I managed to get several "single" flowers to use for this project.  I stamped the flowers several times on Cryogen White cardstock.  I used Copic markers to color all of them in with a range that matched the floral paper I used.  I also colored a piece of cardstock in the same green I used for the stems and cut out several greenery pieces with a die. I made the box from Stampin' Up Blushing Bride cardstock and stamped a background design with Lost L...

Tags abound

Hiya to all the crafty people who are stopping by at the Kennedy Grace Creations blog today.  I'm here with a bit of a treat.  I have LOTS of tags to show you.  The best part is that I'm showing different ways to use the same stamp sets.  I hope this gets you thinking! When I first started on my project the only thing I really had in my mind was that I wanted to make tags and I wanted to use some of the gorgeous Kennedy Grace Creations sequins.  I mean, have you looked at all the different sequins they have available?? Let's dive right in to the first set. Look at all the pretty sequins!  Let's take it tag by tag so I can give you all the details. I started by cutting out a piece of cream colored cardstock with a stitched die.  This was not intended to be a tag but I punched out a hole and instant tag!  I stamped the floral image from Grace's Little Note  and heat embossed it in silver.  I masked it and sponged on Antiq...
Hello, hello! Erica on the blog today with my last post for October. I can't believe it's nearly November, this year has seriously just whooshed past! My card today is a bit of a "I'm in denial it's almost winter" card, using bright summery colours. It turns out I seem to have also used the colours of our October mood board on closer inspection. Maybe my subconscious is actually more onboard with the changing seasons than my conscious self? Who knows? Anyway, let's get to it shall we before this get's all psycho-analysing, shall we? I started by cutting out an A2 stitched panel in Copic friendly card stock before stamping up the flowers from the  Kindness Medley  stamp set. One bunch of flowers in the bottom right corner and one in the top left corner. Then got my copic markers out, I used various yellow and orange ones to give my flower petals depth and highlights. For the leaves, I use a few different green ones to make sure they didn't end...

October Mood board with Erica

Hello! Erica on the blog today with my take of our October Mood board. It's full of fun colours and textures but I immediately knew I wanted to use these new Cathrine Pooler inks a friend sent me recently. It was like a stroke of fate, the colours my friend sent perfectly matched the mood board! It just had to be done. I started my placing the big 'kindess' stamp from  Kindness Medley  in my MISTI and then I got to work with my inks. These inks are so juicy and stamp incredibly well, I am so impressed! Saying that, I do prefer to use my MISTI whenever I stamp up anything, just in case the lines aren't as solid as I'd like or the colour doesn't cover the image very well. It is definitely one of my absolute must-haves. Anyway, after stamping away for a while I had a nice and bright panel which I used as my background. To incorporate some of the other colours on the mood board I decided to cut out the panel with a scalloped die so i...
