Stamp Something - colours of your flag

This is my first ever card as a fully fledged member of Stamp Something DT. Am I proud or what!!

To introduce the new DT our challenge this time is to USE COLOURS OF YOUR FLAG.

I am Estonian living in Ireland so it had me stumped for a while, eventually I decided to go with the flag of the country I by now consider to be my home - the orange, green and white of Ireland.






The image is from Hambo Stamps, boy do I love them, real fun and a joy to colour! Colouring was (of course) done by Copics with some added Spica and Sakura glitter accents. Sentiments were computer generated. The background and matting for the image was cut with Nesties Circles and Pinking Circles.






The papers are from Pink Paislee (all slightly sponged with Distress Inks) and glitter strips from Papermania. The image background was embossed with Cuttlebug folder. As a last touch I popped some Card Candy into the corners. It's a simple but bright and fun card - at least in my opinion!! :D






Copics:
Pants and scarf: BG99, G85, YG67, YG63, YG03, YG00
Bag: YG99, YG95, YG94, YG91
Vest, sock, YR18, YR14, YR07, YR04, Y17, Y28
Shirt, shoes:C8/7/5/3/1/00
Sword:YR14, YR23, YR17, Y35, YR0000, Y28
Beard: W3/1/00
Wooden leg: E57/35/31/97

Just for fun

I've had that image from Hambo Stamps coloured up for a while, looking at me accusingly every time I rooted around in my printed digis box.

I had a spare moment today so made a quick card with it.



Now in retrospective I chose wrong papers (Cosmo Cricket), they are totally overpowering the image! Too late now.

The image was coloured with Copics but I don't have colours for it, as I really don't have that long of a memory!


The sentiments were printed onto October Afternoon stickers and then mounted on blue card to match the rest of the matting.



The only embellishments I used are linen thread and a pin from my stash. I don't know how to call those sticky strips full of holes I used for texture, found them in my drawer , lol.

I would like to enter that card into following challenges:
The Crafty Pad - a card for a male
Digital Tuesday - Trend: 80's
Pixie Dust Challenge - Going Round and Round

Thanks for looking and happy crafting!

One hefty imaginary friend

Today's card is created using image from Hambo stamps, they have loads of fun stamps and hilarious sentiments. It cracked me up the moment I saw it and I knew exactly what I was going to do with it.
I coloured the image with Copics, no glitter or glaze involved - yes, I know, it can happen to me sometimes!
The papers are from my favorite MME Quite Contrary collection. It's an obsession, what can I say! I didn't use any embellishments except some stickers and die-cuts from the same collection.
All the stitching is done by hand using embroidery thread and the sentiments were created in the computer and printed straight onto stickers, then heat-embossed. The grass is made with MS border punch.
