Lighthouse by Reneé Matarese- Chameleon & Perfect Paper Crafting Blog Hop

Hello Ai friends!  

Happy Father's Day!

Art Impressions is having a special hop this week with Chameleon pens & Perfect Paper Crafting!  What a fun combination!  From June 15th-21st we are having a mini blog hop each day between the three company blogs.

You should have arrived here from Perfect Paper Crafting.

I used Lighthouse - Background (Sku#T1475) to create my masculine card.

The sky, grass and water were all colored with THE CHAMELEON COOL TONES

5 PEN TONE SETS. I used some Copics to add some "highlights" and color the rest of the image.  It's so cool getting so many shades from one marker!

The layers for my card were cut with the Mini Perfect Layers tool and a Perfect Paper Crafting Cutting Mat.  I used both 1/16th and 1/8th inches to matte my card.  They were really easy to understand and the self healing mat is very durable and great quality!

Inside I used Happy Birthday (Sku#E597).

Chameleon pens used...BL3 Sky Blue, BG4 Aquamarine, BV4 Blue Violet

Copics used... C0, C3, Y02, YG11, G43, B0000, B01, B52, B60, W1 W3, E21, E37, E42, E53, E55, E84

TriArt markers... B-12, SK-5

Chameleon and Perfect Paper Crafting Blog Hop Day 6!

Hello AI Fans!!

 

Welcome to day 6 of our blog hop with Chameleon Pens and Perfect Paper Crafting! We hope you're enjoying this week long adventure and are getting lots of inspiration from all the amazing creations!  You should have arrived here from the Perfect Paper Crafting Bog!

 

 

Today I'm showing you a new Art Impressions Stamp Set that is exclusive to Hobby Lobby called Live Laugh Love. It comes with 7 stamps!

 

 

So have you tried the Chameleon pens yet? It's amazing that you can get so many different shades of color out of one pen! From highlights all the way down to deep shadows!  I used the Primary Color Set for my card today, using YL2, GR3, RD4, and BL6.

 

Many years ago, I purchased a Perfect Layers set, but for this card I used the Perfect Layers Mini Border Tool Set which is perfect for making cards or matting photographs! What I really love about it is that with a paper trimmer, you have to have at least one straight edge in order to easily trim your paper straight.  With the Perfect Layers tools, you can use any piece of scrap paper that is large enough for what you want! It doesn't matter how crooked the edges are! I adhered my image to a piece of black scrap paper and trimmed it perfectly all the way around!

 

 

Then I adhered it to a scrap piece of the yellow polka dot papers and trimmed that with a nice wide border, then again with the black mat! Easy peasy!!

 

 

Simply added my sentiments, a flower with a silk bow, and some Viva décor pearls!
