Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator
Thank you so much for visiting my blog today which is taking part in the Pootlers Blog Hop. If you are new to my blog then I welcome you and hop that you will enjoy the visit and come back :-)
The theme of the blog hop is the new Spring Summer Catalogue. I have chosen to do a project using the Stamp Set Family & Friends. When I saw this set in the catalogue at on stage I immediately had an image of this project.
I really enjoyed creating this family portrait and was a paper labour of love, my partner has taken one of them to work for his office :-)
Measurements and Materials
Frame
- 12" x 12" piece of Designer series paper
- Score on all 4 sides @ 3/8" - 3/4" - 1 1/8" - 1 1/2"
- Score on 2 opposite sides @ 1 7/8" & 10 1/8"
- These form the cut lines
Creating your family portrait
- Using the Family & Friends stamp set it is easy to create a family
- The stamps are photopolymer so it is easy to line them up
- There are lots of different hairstyles and clothes to chose from with extra features like pets
Colouring in
- I have so far made 3 portraits and each I used a different medium to colour them in
- Water colour pencils
- Stampin' Write markers with a blender pen
- Blends alcohol markers
Video Tutorial
If you come back tomorrow I will have a video tutorial of how I made this project. I do hope you will come back :-)
Time for the closeups!
I will be back tomorrow with the video tutorial and back on Tuesday with another project, I do hope you will pop back, until then ...
Happy Crafting!
