Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Challenge # 529 Layers

Good Morning and welcome to another Saturday Challenge at

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

Bonjour et bienvenue à un autre Défi du Samedi

chez Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

This week I am the hostess for this fun and krafty challenge

to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing!

and my challenge for you is

LAYERS.

Cette semaine, je suis l'hôtesse de ce défi amusant 

qui peut vous aider à garder votre pensée créative en ébullition.

et, mon thème est 

ajouter des couches ( LAYERS)

I love building cards with many layers!

for this one, I started with a plain cardstock, and used both 

Whimsical Wisteria and Gorgeous Grapes 

with our Confetti Stencil to build the base of my card.

I wanted to go vintage, so I went with a flowery patterned paper (from Magnolia)

for my center piece where I wanted to enhance the sentiment

from

PARTY TIME  SENTIMENTS SET from artist Melissa Baker Nguyen

j'aime beaucoup construire des cartes à plusieurs couches

je trouve que cela donne du volume et de la dimension.

Pour la base de cette carte, j'ai commencé avec le Stencil Confetti

et les encres Whimsical Wisteria et Grogeous Grapes.

J'avais envie d'un style vintage, qui marierait bien ces teintes de violet.

j'ai choisi un papier imprimé à fleur de Magnolia, qui mettrait en valeur

mon sentiment

de l'ensemble PARTY TIME SENTIMENT SET  de l'artiste Melissa Baker Nguyen.

A die cut doily from Marianne Design constitutes the center piece,

to which I added an inside circle with same paper

finally placing my sentiment.

I created a bouquet, decorated it with string ribbons.

I added purple color to my flowers with same shades of inks and

completed their glittery finish with Glamour dust cristal. 

little krafty dots at the opposite corner to add details.

Une découpe de Marianne Design constitue la pièce centrale,

auquel j'ai ajouté un cercle fleuri pour rappeler la base

Puis mon sentiment embossé avec l,encre purple grapes.

Pour compléter le tout, un bouquet de fleurs, dont les couleurs ont été rehaussées

à l'encre violet, et enduite de Glamour dust pour plus de brillant.

un ruban jute, allant bien avec le style vintage complète le tout.

sans oublier, les petits Krafty dots dans le coin opposé aux fleurs.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Tips and Tuts - Zoodles

Hello Friends!
I hope you hare all keeping safe, and krafting alot!
I am on the Kraftin' Kimmie blog this morning sharing the

 making of a  cute card with the brand new ZOODLE stamp set from Neda Sadreddin.

Following is a list of everything I used.

Bonjour!
J'espère que malgré la situation vous trouvez de quoi vous amusez!
si vous avez besoin d'inspiration, bien ce matin, j'ai une marche à suivre pour faire une jolie petite carte avec le nouveau jeu ZOODLE, chez Kraftin' Kimmie, de l'artiste neda Sadreddin.

Voici une liste de tout ce que j'ai utlisé:

Bristol Velum Paper

Polychromos Pencils : 

Red: 225-142-126-121-189-140

green: 267-266-171-205

Y-ellow/Brown: 175-176-182-108-184

Black,  white

cold greys: 230-232-234-235

warm greys: 270-272-274

Kraftin' Kimmie Hybrid inks:

Crisp Crimson, Morning Marigold, Yummy Yellow, Party Peach (stamping image)

Confetti Stecil

Coloring Process
From left to right: Step 1: shadow mapping with darkest red ( 225) ; Step 2:  shading and blending with 142 and 126, I also added black in the nose area, mouth and eyes; Step 3: I continue extending my colors towards the center with softer reds (121 and 189). for the mouth area I used a blend of warm greys, starting with the darkest to the lightest getting close to the nose area. Step 4: The eyes are colored with blends of  cold grey, starting with the darkest where the two eyes meet, and getting lighter towards the pupil and the remaining part of the eyes. Same with the two little horns (called ossicones). 

I chose to color the patches in green, to keep a certain harmony  with the parrot.

I fussycut my images.

The colors I used for the parrot.

Background Process
Creating a background is a fun way to get creative! I used the lovely Confetti Stencil  with the Yummy Yello, Morning Marigold and Crisp Crimson inks. I brushed the colors starting with the red in the middle, it took a few repetition to get the shade I wanted. I let the ink dry, and applied the Morning Marigold, on both sides of the red, ending with a slight stroke to bring the Yummy Yellow softer shade. Then I positioned my stencil at the top only, brushed slightly a coat of red close to the red area and gradually went very light towards the top, to be able to add Morning Marigold darker at first, and very light towards the top of the paper. Then, I inked all borders with Morning Marigold followed by Crisp Crimson.  Of course... I had to add stickles !!!!

I then matted my background on a red cardstock, placed it on the base of my card; I positioned my letters, leaving space for the giraffe in the middle, then placing my parrot on top of the "S".  I thought there was something missing in the right corner, so I colored a blue-green monkey offering the banana to the giraffe.. who looks pretty surprised, all this on the eyes of Mr. Parrot!  Perhaps bananas are not part of her diet!!!

et voilà.....

Hope you have enjoyed the process! and that will give you plenty of ideas to create fun cards with ZOODLES!
Stay Safe!
Kraft a lot!
