Mar 27
Today is an exciting day at StampNation. We are introducing a new teacher to our Classroom, Kristy Dalman from Some Odd Girl. She will be doing exclusive coloring and Copic tutorials for our members and we couldn’t be more excited.
For the next FIVE weeks, every Friday, Kristy will be adding a new lesson to StampNation. After that, you will find a new lesson on the last Friday of every month.
The topics of her first five lessons are:
1. Intro to the markers (types, nibs, etc)
2. Color system
3. Smooth Coloring
4. Blending, 3 Color Basic Blend
5. Shading Basics
2. Color system
3. Smooth Coloring
4. Blending, 3 Color Basic Blend
5. Shading Basics
From there, she will create her lessons based on member feedback.
If you haven’t joined us at StampNation yet, learn more about it here!
The SN Design Team is doing a blog hop to introduce and welcome Kristy to our team. Each of us have used a Some Odd Girl stamp set on our project. Follow the links below to see each of our projects.Catherine / Heather / Kristie / Kristy / Maureen / Shea
There is more…Prizes!
We’ve hidden TWO 1- month subscriptions to StampNation along the hop…comment on the blogs in the hop to enter to win. Two winners will be announced on Monday, March 31.
On my card I used the super lovely Music Mae, coloured with Copics and matched with the Basic Grey Fresh Cut paper. For the sentiment, I combined the Simon Says You die with the coordinating stamp set (which also happens to be called You). I gave the white panel a curved shape, with the Curved Edge die - also by Simon Says.
The Copic markers I used:
trousers: BG53/57/75
shirt: YG11/13/17
shoes / headphones: W2/W5/W7
headphones metal parts: C1/C3/C5
hair: E21/25/27/29
skin: E00/02/11/95
eyes: B93/95/97/99
We are also using SOG stamps on our StampNation Challenge cards this week. Here’s a peek at my project!
One lucky StampNation Member that participates in the challenge this week (FYI - it’s a sketch!) will have her choice of one Some Odd Girl stamp set, or 3 Digis. Winner will be announced on April 9.
Thank you for joining us today, we can’t wait to keep celebrating with you at StampNation!
