* Vera Lane Studio: All Heart

Hello!

Today is my DT day for Vera Lane Studio and I decided to make a Valentine card with the All Heart digi set. This set comes with two black outline digis for you to colour, a pre-coloured digi ready to use for collage or card making and a sentiment.

Here is my card:

I used a gelli print as the base for my background. It was a secondary print with splashes of red and gold and plenty of white space. I cut it to size (12.5 x 12.5 cm) and inked around the edges with Fired Brick Distress Oxide to add a frame element. I then added some stamping along the edges using Black Soot Distress Oxide. Next I added some texture paste through a tiny dots stencil and, when this was dry, I used my finger to spread some Gold Sparkle Medium around the edges of the background and also on top of the texture paste.

I coloured the girl with Copics and gave her some white highlights and glittery eyelids. I fussy cut her and popped her on foam pads, then placed her on top of a strip of washi. The sentiment was cut into strips, edged in Black Soot and adhered to the background.

I decided to mat my background onto black paper as this made the bright colours pop even more. Once this was completed everything was attached to a blank white card.

All Heart

I hope you'll come along and play on Vera Lane.

* Vera Lane Studio: Potter

Hello!

Today at Vera Lane Studio we have a new release.

It's Potter! And it's Harry ... and ... he's so adorable with his owl, Hedwig!

I made a journal page:

I'm not giving anything away, but you're only seeing half of my page!!
I coloured Harry and Hedwig with Copics and added some white highlights. I gave Harry's spectacles some Glossy Accent lenses and Hedwig has Glossy accent eyes. I fussy cut them and added some foam tape to the back, so they would stand out from the background.
The background was made with Gelatos and Neocolor crayons which I blended with my finger. I added some gold acrylic paint very thinly, again with my finger. In the middle of the page I applied modelling paste through a brick wall stencil. I gave the "bricks" a wash of distress oxides to colour them and added brick stamping in Vintage Photo around the edges. The edge of the page was darkened with black Neocolor and blended in. I next spritzed the page with iridescent gold Glimmer Mist.
Harry was popped onto the page and some sequin stars placed around his wand. One of the sentiments was cut into strips and adhered to the page, then, when dry, outlined in a scribbly way with a black fine liner pen. The white sentiment looked quite stark on the page, so I used a blending sponge to add a little colour.

* Vera Lane Studio: Magical ATC

Hello!

At the Vera Lane Studio Facebook Group we have a monthly ATC swap. I am hosting the swap this month and I've chosen the theme of Magic.

Here is the ATC I made:

The images are coloured with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers. I used a bunny from the Doodle Bunnies digi set. He is popping out of the top hat worn by the Hatter in Wonderland Set 1 and the trio of stars are from the Unicorn and Pegasus set.

The colourful background was created with Distress Oxides which I blended onto white card. Next I embossed a starburst design with a new Tim Holtz stamp and gold embossing powder. I added some white paint splatters and edged the card with black embossing.

The bunny was glued directly onto the background whilst the hat was popped up on foam pads and given a strip of glitter washi tape to rest upon. The sentiment was printed and cut into strips then glued to the ATC and outlined in black pen. The stars were added around the image and coated with Stickles for some more sparkle.
