Baby Yoda Square Twisted Easel Card (Star Wars card)

Star Wars Baby Yoda Square Twisted Easel Fun Fold card

I was hoping to receive my order of products from the new Annual Catalogue in time to make my son's birthday card.  He's the Whisky Expert at a well-known alcohol retailer so the new stampset Whiskey Business is perfect for him!  

Unfortunately, the birthday arrived first - so I had to think of something different for his card and decided to make a Baby Yoda for him.

I took a lot of inspiration from Kirsteen Gill's card that I found on Pinterest and just worked out what shapes I could use .  

The facial features and decorations / shading on the sphere were done by hand.

These are the pieces I cut for Baby Yoda

Thank you for visiting.

'Til next time!

Punch Art - Pokemon - Voltorb & Electrode

A punch art card for a young boy: Voltorb and its evolution - Electrode

The other day I shared my punch art Gastly, now meet some more of the pokemon crew!

These are sooo easy! And I love the fact that I can use up little oddments of leftover cardstock!

With a 2" circle punch, I punched two white circles and one red one and divided the red one into two, not quite equal, pieces.  I cut with a curve rather than straight across to continue the feeling of an orb.

The eyes and the mouth involved a little bit of free cutting but it wasn't too arduous.  Then I simply drew in the features with a Basic Black Stampin' Blend.

The pieces I used to make my Voltorb Pokemon

I cut two of the labels, one in red and one in white and then cut the red one in half, fixing the pieces behind the white one

The black background was embossed with the new Old World Paper 3D folder (available from 3rd June 2020).  Then I simply finished it off with a few Rhinestones that I coloured with a Dark Real Red Stampin' Blend.

Thank you for visiting.

Til next time!

A punch art Pokemon Gastly

I really don't have any kid type stamps sets at the moment, so I resorted to some "punch art".  I put that in inverted commas as some of the pieces are cut with dies rather than punches.

Meet Gastly - I'm sure we all know that he's a Pokemon character!

The purple background is a watercoloured "splodge" on watercolour paper.

The pieces required for the Gastly

These are the pieces I used.  The white one is cut twice on the diagonal to create the eyes.

I cut a slit in the black circle to house the tongue!

I also made a Voltorb - but I'll show you that one another time!

Thank you so much for joining us today and we hope you'll join us again next month when our theme will be the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue!

Ink it! Stamp it! Design Team Blog Hop - Technique: Punch Art Sheep

Welcome to the Ink It! Stamp It! Design Team Blog Hop - we hop every month so be sure to pop back and visit us again!  Today we are sharing techniques. I've done some punch art.

You are currently at my page - Stephanie Fischer, The Crafty Thinker.  At the end of my post there is a full line of team members, please click on the name after mine in the list to continue the hop.

This card is for some dear friends - a young couple moving to Queenstown in New Zealand.  I just had to put some sheep on the card!  I've also made a rough attempt at the Remarkables.

I haven't done a lot of punch art in the past but at the moment I'm really enjoying bending my mind in a different direction - looking at the shapes of punched and die cut pieces and wondering what else they could become.

Punch art sheep and a hint of the Remarkables makes a card with a reference to Queenstown!

So this is how I made those sheep.  If I'd planned the rest of the card before I made the sheep, I would probably have used those smaller cloud shapes for the tops of the heads too.

"Ingredients" for the punch art sheep

Start with the white scalloped circle and glue on the face and legs.

Stage 1 of the punch art sheep

Then add the ears before covering the ear joins and square head with some of the fluffy shapes - either the clouds or blossoms.

Stage 2 of the punch art sheep

I used the smallest circles in the Cookie Builder Punch for the whites of the eyes.  Once the sheep were in their final position, I used a black marker to finish the eyes so that they're looking at each other.

Thank you so much for joining us today and we hope you'll join us again next month when we'll be sharing Christmas projects! I'm Stephanie Fischer and to keep hopping around see the list below to see who is up next with another great project.
