Sunday with Tamibella: Special Delivery Valentine or Birthday Card

Hi! Tamara here with you today. For this week’s post I made a Valentine’s Day/Birthday card using the SPECIAL DELIVERY rubber stamp.

I stamped my image with Archival Ink – potted soil first on a sheet of copy paper and then on my 300 g HP watercolour paper so I got a very soft stamped image. Image was coloured up with Distress ink pads.

Colours used:
owl: vintage photo, spiced marmalade
letter: pumice stone
background: tumbled glass

For the card I used my new Valentine’s day papers. I added some die cut clouds so it looks like the owl if flying to deliver something special in her envelope.

Have a great Sunday!!
Hugs, t.

Sunday with Tamibella: Oddball Gnome Parents Card

Hi!
Tamara here with you. For this week’s post I made a Birthday card featuring the ODDBALL GNOME PARENTS rubber stamp set. Oddballs are my favourite like of Stamping Bella rubber stamps and really enjoy colouring them. On this card I used mom, dad, fox and mushroom from the set. You get one more image in this set and you can all mix and match it with ODDBALL GNOME KIDS rubber stamp set.

Images were stamped with Archival Ink – Jet Black on 300 g HP watercolour paper and then coloured up using Distress ink pads.

Distress ink pads used for colouring:
skin: vintage photo
hair: antique linen, walnut stain
his outfit: peeled paint, faded jeans, walnut stain, forest moss
her outfit: barn door, fired brick, villainous potion
fox: spiced marmalade
mushroom: barn door, hickory smoke
grass: peeled paint
sky: broken china

To decorate the card I used some papers from my stash and added some forest themed die cuts like tree, leaves, mushrooms …

Sentiment “happy birthday” comes from MINI ODDBALL HAS A PRESENT rubber stamp set.

That’s all from me today!
Hugs, t.

Hi!

Tamara here with you today with my latest Stamping Bella card featuring Bundle Girl with a Christmas tree and a Birdie. Sentiment “We wish you a Merry Christmas” comes in the Christmas Camper stamp set. I think I have enough Christmas cards for this year but I still have some of my rubber stamps unused and I just might ink them and make some more. lol
I think I made a lot of them this year and I really like every one of them, because Stamping Bella’s images are simply the best!!

A bit about today’s card … I stamped my image with Archival Ink – Jet black on 300g hot pressed watercolour paper and then coloured it up with Distress ink pads. I used one of my rectangle dies to cut it out.

Distress ink pads used for colouring:
skin: vintage photo
cheeks: worn lipstick
outfit: barn door, dusty concord
tree: rustic wilderness
ornaments: fired brick, fossilized amber, spiced marmalade
background: tumbled glass

I added a few small and tiny snowflakes around the image and added some tiny glittery dots with Stickled glitter glue to make it look like snow. Design paper chosen is an old one from my stash, but I absolutely love the colour of it.

Have a great Sunday!
Hugs, t.

Hugs, t.

cheeks: worn lipstick
hair: antique linen, walnut stain

Hi! Tamara here with you. I hope you’re all enjoying the Summer. It’s crazy hot here so I have time for colouring and making cards. This week I have a 50th Birthday cards for you. This is a card I made for a friend’s Birthday and the only request was there’s a martini mentioned or seen somewhere. LOL I decided to combine two different sets. I used Uptown Girl OPAL the OPTIMIST and sentiment from EDNA needs a MARTINI.

I decided to do red-white colour combination with added roses everywhere. I added big number 50.

Image was stamped with Archival Ink – Jet black on 300g HP watercolour paper and then coloured up with Distress Ink pads.

Distress ink pads used for colouring are:
skin: vintage photo
cheeks: worn lipstick
hair: antique linen, walnut stain
dress: pumice stone, barn door, peeled paint

Have a great Sunday!
