Alex Syberia Designs October Release Blog Hop & Giveaway

Hello, Crafty Friends! I am so excited to be Guest Designing for Alex Syberia Designs to showcase some exciting new products from the Grateful for You October Release. I am thrilled to also be a part of the Alex Syberia Designs Release BLOG HOP & GIVEAWAY (details below) to celebrate this amazing release that is now available for shopping. Please visit the Alex Syberia Designs Shop for more info and inspirations. 

I had so much fun playing with this release! Today, I have two cards to share with you. So let's get started.

Resting Isn't Lazy. Stay Cozy! For my first card, I have a postage stamp style card featuring these absolutely adorable penguins from the new Smile More set. This is such a fun set. Take a look at those super cute bunny slippers!

I stamped the images from the Smile More Clear Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored the image with Copic markers and accented with gel pens. I used the coordinating Smile More Dies to cut them out.

COPIC COLORS

Penguins: T3/5/7, W00/0/1, Y38, R000/20

Couch: E30/21/11/13/15/17

Books: R24/28, B24/26, E21, YG03

Cup: R20

Sippers: C0/1, R2000/20

For my background, I used the Postage Stamps Cover Die to diecut a panel out of white cardstock. I used the Postage Stamps Stencil to mask and lightly ink blended with Tumbled Glass Distess Oxide ink. 

For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Smile More and the Stay Cozy stamp sets with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used one of the coordinating Smile More Dies and Stay Cozy Dies to diecut them out.

I adhered the sentiments and the colored images onto the panel with liquid adhesive and foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. I added foam tape behind the panel before adhering it to a red panel diecut with the largest die from the Good Day Quilted Rectangles Die Set. I adhered the panel to a red cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").

 

Let the Music Heal Your Soul! For my second card, I have a sweet card featuring the adorable Stay Cozy set paired up with the Tiny Hearts Cover Die. These are both so sweet and seemed just perfect to be combined together.

I stamped the image from the Stay Cozy Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored the image with Copic markers and accented with gel pens. I used the coordinating Stay Cozy Dies to cut it out.
