Cat Fever for Halloween!

Hello everyone! I'm back to share some Halloween inspiration with a Tiddly Inks card using a set that is not particularly meant for Halloween but works very well for this occasion too! 

I stamped this sweetie from the Cat Fever clear stamp set onto Make It Colour Blending Card and coloured her in Copics. The paw print comes from the same Cat Fever set and the sentiment is from the Bewitching set. I only added a punched border to keep my card very simple.

Tiddly Inks Halloween scene

Hello everyone! Halloween is really just around the corner, so I thought I would share a spooky cute scene today! This one is 100% Copics and Tiddly Inks stamp sets - I love that they include characters, accessories and sentiments - just everything I need!

I stamped the cute character from the Batty For You clear stamp set on Make It Colour Blending Card, coloured her in Copics and cut her out. For the background, I stamped the tree from the Grow Old Friends set and the moon from the Batty For You set, airbrushed the background then coloured the tree and bat. On a piece of vellum, I added the Happy Halloween sentiment from the Bewitching set and embossed it in white. I put my Batty Girl on foam squares for a bit of dimension.

Tiddly Christmas!

Hello everyone! If you love fairies, Tiddly Inks has super cute ones... And they are in the store!!! The new clear stamp sets are all here! And if you want to start on your Christmas cards, here is an adorable fairy perfect for the occasion! 

I have used Willow Christmas Fairy, stamped her in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Make It Colour Blending Card and coloured her all in Copics. I die cut her using an MFT die and then added a bit of Stormy Sky and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks on the edges. I put my fairy on a piece of Bo Bunny DP and simply added a snowflake button.

Believe in magic...

Hello everyone! Today's post is about a garden with a bit of magic in it, some Copics and acrylic paint!

This cutie is from the new The Greeting Farm Magical Beans Kit. I LOVE this kit!! All the Beans are so cute, and there are TEN of them! I stamped this one in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Make It Colour Blending Card, coloured her in Copics and cut her out. The background was made using acrylic paint on watercolour paper. The flowers are from the Tiddly Inks Harmony At Home Set, I stamped them on a piece of watercolour paper, coloured them in acrylics too and glued them to my background. The branches were made with a stencil. And for a nice finishing touch, I added 2 Make It Crafty Mini Dragonflies and a Mini Butterfly chipboard too.

After Ellie, meet Chloe!

Hello everyone! I am back to share some more Tiddly Inks inspiration today, this time with the second totally new character of the release - the adorable Chloe! There are three different sets with Chloe and I have chosen to use two of them, to make a little scene.

This super cute Chloe is from the Chloe and Her Friends Set, so is the sentiment, and the mushroom and Chloe's two Friends are from the Chloe Darkwing set. They are different elements, you can use only the mushroom if you like, or just one animal... which is what I like - you can have fun and combine them the way you want! 

My scene is coloured with Copics on Make It Colour Blending Card and I have added a punched border and a Make It Crafty Chipboard from the Love Heart Swirls Set. There are still a few chipboard sets available, but these are the very last... once they're gone, they're gone!

Tiddly love and news

Hello everyone! I am here to share some Tiddly Inks inspiration today... It's no secret how much I love Tiddly Inks stamps and you may have spotted a few sneak peeks announcing a big release coming on February 3rd... with new stamp sets which are of course all going to be available from Quixotic Paperie! I can't wait! In the meantime, for my inspiration post today, I have used another Tiddly Inks clear stamp set I adore - Hello Pet!

I have kept my card extra simple as you can see - I stamped Hello Pet and coloured my image using Faber-Castell Polychromos, and the sentiment is from the set too. The set also includes a "Have a Wild Birthday" sentiment and a couple others and a few very cute accessory stamps. 

As a finishing touch, I added a punched border. 

That's all from me today - thank you very much for your visit, enjoy the rest of your Sunday! Hugs,

Snowbuddy loves you like I do

Hello everyone! It's Delphine here today - have you seen all the new stamps coming to the store this week - Tiddly Inks and Make It Crafty? To celebrate, I thought I would make a little Tiddly Inks/ Make It Crafty scene, and went for a Christmas card.

For this scene, I used 3 stamps - Winter Wishes Wryn by Tiddly Inks, Winter Fence and Pine Trees by Make It Crafty. The Fence and Trees are sold individually and are also part of a must-have collection set called Winter Backgrounds including all the elements you need to make beautiful winter scenes. I coloured my scene with Copics on Make It Colour Blending Card and added a sentiment from the Winter Wishes Wryn set. The two snowflakes are Make It Crafty Snowflakes Chipboard, covered in gold and silver paint. Don't forget to order the chipboard you want quickly, because once they're gone, they're gone!

New Tiddly Inks and Make It Crafty stamps will be in the store this week but are already available for preorder! Thank you very much for your visit, have a lovely Sunday! Hugs,

Hello everyone! It's Delphine here today to share a card featuring a little scene with a very stylish lady from Tiddly Inks simply combined to a Make It Crafty background. 

This gorgeous lady is from the Tiddly Inks Stylish Friends set and the background is Make It Crafty Rose Garden. They are coloured in Copics on Make It Colour Blending Card and the sentiment I added is from the Tiddly Inks Fairy Happy Day set. I kept the layout very simple as always with just a stripe of paper to "bring out" the image.

I used the Tiddly Inks Happy Day clear stamp set for this card. I stamped Wryn on Make It Colour Blending Card, and stamped a little present too. I coloured with my Copics, then cut out my images. The red heart was made with a Greeting Farm die from the Film & Polaroid die set, and the sentiment is from the Tiddly Inks Happy Day set.

A Tiddly Inks Scene

Hello everyone! It's Delphine here with a Tiddly Inks scene I made, combining different stamps. Can you tell I love my clear stamp sets;)? I thought I would combine media too, with a bit of watercolouring and Copic colouring... Here is the result!

The row of houses is from the Harmony At Home set. I stamped them twice (to have a row the size I wanted) on watercolour paper using Sepia Archival Ink and coloured them with Aquatone. The adorable Wryn is the one you can find in the Happy Mail set. I think she is perfect for any card! She was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Make It Colour Blending Card. I coloured her with Copics then cut her out and put her on foam squares. The heart is from the Harmony At Home set too, watercoloured with Aquatone, cut out and put on foam squares. I then added two little pearls at the top and that was it!

That's all from me today! Thank you very much for your visit, enjoy the rest of your Sunday! Hugs

Fairy Happy Day with Tiddly Inks!

Hello everyone! It's Delphine here with some Tiddly Inks inspiration - I just love these stamps, love colouring them so much! For today, I have chosen one the gorgeous new fairies, Fairy Happy Day!

I stamped Fairy Happy Day on watercolour paper to colour her with different sorts of pencils, both watercolour and dry. I used Neocolor II and Aquatone with water mostly for the background, and Polychromos and Luminance pencils for the fairy and details. The flower is from another Tiddly Inks clear stamp set - Harmony At Home. I watercoloured it to match the flowers in my image, cut it out and put it on foam.

Thank you very much for your visit, have a lovely Sunday!

With Joyful Gratitude

Hello everyone! It's Delphine here today with a Tiddly Inks card to share. I used a set... just a set and nothing else. That's one of the things I love about these sets, they have everything you need to use them by themselves if you like - character, accessories, sentiment! 

The set I used is Celebrate Joyfully. I had in mind to make a bright scene and colour a background, using different media, so I stamped Emma and the flowers on a Mixed Media paper. I coloured my sky and grass using a combination of Neocolor II and Aquatone pencils which I both love for their intense colours and did some watercolouring. Then I used my Polychromos to colour Emma, the flowers and details, and I added some acrylic paint to the grass.

I loved colouring this little scene, hope you like it! Thank you very much for your visit, have a lovely Sunday! 

Hugs
