Merry Moose-mas

June 19, 2018 ~ sproatmeyer ~ Leave a comment

My project was inspired again by Annabel and her awesome knitting pattern which I colored again on this Moose. This is Merry Moose-mas from Whimsy Stamps. I colored the scarf and hat originally in Copic markers but wasn’t able to get the details I was looking for. So I then went over it with Prismascolor pencils and brought back in the details.

These are the Copic markers I used on Merry Moose-mas:

B21, 95, 39

BG11, 13, 23, 18

C1, 3

E42, 43, 44, 47

W1, 4, 6, 8, 9

E51, 53, 55, 31, 53

This and other Whimsy Stamps are available at Little Miss Muffet Stamps.

Beaver

June 12, 2018 ~ sproatmeyer ~ Leave a comment

This is Beaver which is a DoveArt for Whimsy rubber stamp. In the background I used the Farmhouse Shiplap Background from a previous project that I deconstructed and recycled. I normally don’t do that but I couldn’t resit pairing it up with the Beaver. The leaves are Make it Crafty chipboard embellishments and colored them green and helped enhance the outdoor woodsy theme.

These are the Copic markers I used on the Beaver and Leaves:

B00, BG10

YG01, 23, 63

BV23

E49, 47, 44, 35, 21

C1, 3, 5

E21, 35, 44

Ice Cream Penguin

June 5, 2018 ~ sproatmeyer ~ Leave a comment

Here’s my second project for the release this month show casing the Ice Cream Penguin. I’ve had some rainbow paper hanging around my desk that I has been begging to be used. I tried it on a previous project but it didn’t work out so well. But I tried it again and it became the basis of my color choices. Anyone want some rainbow sherbet?

These are the Copic markers I used on Ice Cream Penguin:

E42, 43, 44

R05, 29, 89

BG72, 75, 23, 13

R11, 21, 05, 85, RV14, 13

YR13, 04, 07, 18

Y32, 35, 38, YR24

YG21, 06, 23, 63

The green paper is also Whimsy Stamp paper and then I used the new Mermaid Scales stencil on it with Distress Ink. Then I drew a few of the lines with a green marker near the bottom of the page.

Naughty Puppies

May 22, 2018 ~ sproatmeyer ~ 1 Comment

This is a window little card I created using Naughty Puppies by Whimsy Stamps. I’ve also used the Card Builders Window Die set from Whimsy Stamps. Some of my projects lately have included some cherry wood veneer paper I found on Amazon. It’s actually wood veneer! It’s so thin that it mostly cuts and bends like paper. It’s been fun to use.
