Two Color Blend Copic Valentines with Kelly

Hello Crafters!

Are you freezing where you are? This winter seems to be frigid for everyone. It's currently a balmy 1 degree here in Ohio. I'm so tired of having cold feet. LOL

On the plus side this type of weather is the perfect excuse to stay in and craft! So, I decided to get a jump on some Valentine's ideas I had for my son's class.

It's the first year I'm going to be making multiples of Valentines and honestly I'm pretty excited about it :) I decided to try a few different ideas. From multiple images to multiple Distress Oxide colors I made a couple to see what I would like.

I started with a super soft Distress Oxide inked background. I added spatters of clean water, Perfect Pearls and WPlus9 Shimmer Spray to create a really pretty snow effect.

Next I stamped out my images and colored them up with really simple two color Copic combinations. I know it's helpful for you guys to see coloring that may be more approachable and if I'm making 25 of these things I need it to be quick right?

Lastly, I fussy cut them out but when I'm making them for his class I'll probably use the dies. It's way faster. I added some detail with my white gel pen and then used Clear Wink of Stella for even more shimmer!

You can watch all the cards come together in the video below.

I think for his Valentines I'll probably go with one character holding the balloons. I might even split the cards in two so they are smaller and easier to fit into those Valentine mailboxes. The other two I can use to give his teachers a little something too!

Thanks for dropping!

  2. These are so stinking cute Kelly, I love them.
    It is freezing here too (N.S., Canada). The only break from the cold we've had since before Christmas was a big wind storm we had over the weekend, if you can call that a break. Actually, it wasn't warm then either. Now we have snow, wind and below zero temps...stay warm and enjoy your weekend.

  3. Cuteness overload, Kelly! Love 'em all. The kids will adore them. I can relate to your cold weather - minus 30 degrees Celsius (-22 degrees F) and tons of snow here in Midland, Ontario, Canada.
