Tiffany Johnson Collaboration Week, Day 5

Oh, my friends, I am bummed to say that my collaboration week with Tiffany must come to a close today. It has been a BIG honor to work with Tiffany and to share a few of her creations on my blog. And I have to admit I am sooo thrilled to meet Tiffany in person very soon at CHA! :) Okay, now on to our final collaboration day.

COLLABORATION CHALLENGE: Use this oh-so-cute Tiffany Doodles digi image.

Here is my take:
I printed the image on Copic Express paper and colored using Copic markers. Next, I lightly distressed this panel using Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink. Stickles were added to the hearts. The blue background was created by distressing white cardstock with Faded Jeans and Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink. Stamps (Tiffany Doodles, Sentiment Hero Arts CL497)

Hope you all have a GREAT weekend and on that note I'll send you off to Tiffany's blog to check out her stellar creation using Umbrella Hearts.

Tiffany Johnson Collaboration Week, Day 4

Time for some more crafty collaboration with Tiffany! :)
INSPIRATION BY TIFFANY:

COLLABORATION CHALLENGE: Dust off those colored pencils!
And here's my take using my colored pencils and Tiffany's truly elegant piece of art.
I stamped the floral image using Tea Dye Distress Ink and colored over the stamped image using my Prismacolor colored pencils. Next, I distressed this using Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink and stamped the script using Pumice Stone Distress Ink. The kraft paper was stamped with Hero Arts' Envelope Pattern with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. The edges were distressed using Walnut Stain Distress Ink. All Stamps Hero Arts K5344, S5507, CG170, CL140)

Now be sure to head over to Tiffany's blog to see what she's done with her colored pencils!

Tiffany Johnson Collaboration Week, Day 3

I sure hope you're enjoying my collaboration week with Tiffany Johnson so far! I am having a ball! :) Here we go---

INSPIRATION CARD BY TIFFANY:COLLABORATION CHALLENGE: Use the color combo featured on the cover of this great issue of PaperCrafts magazine.

And here is my take based on Tiffany's inspiration card and the fun color inspiration:

This card began entirely as white cardstock. The floral images on the tag were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Prismacolor colored pencils. This tag was then distressed lightly with Crushed Olive Distress Ink and the script was stamped with Pumice Stone Distress Ink. (I removed some portions of the ink by dabbing the stamp with a baby wipe before stamping.) The smaller tag was distressed with Crushed Olive and Peeled Paint Distress Ink. The blue background was colored with Faded Jeans and Broken China Distress Ink. The polka dot background was stamped with Faded Jeans Distress Ink. Each element of the card was distressed with Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink around the edges. Butterfly punches by Martha Stewart and Fiskars. All Stamps Hero Arts (H5489, K5344, CL479, S5101. CL250)

Be sure to pop over to Tiffany's blog to see what she came up with this great color scheme! (BTW, did you see what she came up with yesterday using her great sketch? If you didn't, make sure you check it out!)

Today, I also have one more sneak peek at a new release by Tiffany Doodles (different Tiffany... ). This floral stamp is called Nicotiana and will be available on Friday, January 28th. Here's a look at the entire set together:

Hope you're having a great day... I'm starting the countdown to my departure for CHA! Still can't believe I get to go!!! :)

Tiffany Johnson Collaboration Week, Day 2

It's day 2 of my fun collaboration with theeeee Tiffany Johnson. I mean, seriously, how lucky am I to collaborate with Tiffany!

INSPIRATION CARD BY TIFFANY:
COLLABORATION CHALLENGE: Follow Tiffany's great sketch! Yep, not only does Tiffany make fun, trendy cards but you can turn to her blog for lots of great card sketches. And if you upload your card to an online card gallery, be sure to tag it with the sketch title so we can check it out! :)

Here's my take using Tiffany's beautiful inspiration card and her great sketch: The flowers were stamped with Tuxedo Black Ink and colored using Distress Ink (Wild Honey and Rusty Hinge). The subtle outline around the flowers was done using Copic Marker W1 Warm Gray No. 1. I then distressed the squares using Pumice Stone Distress Ink. The yellow background (small border) was distressed using Wild Honey Distress Ink and then flicked with water. All Stamps Hero Arts (F5429, CL487)
Now, be sure to visit Tiffany's blog to see what she came up with her sketch.

And again, before I go, here's a card I made for Tiffany Doodles (different Tiffany...LOL) release countdown. The new stamp is the pretty floral stamp called Daphne, available Friday, Jan. 28.
