ARTIST MARKERS ORGANIZATION

The new decal set – Marker Toppers is probably my favorite product from the release. I love product organizational projects (who doesn’t lol) and this was right up my alley! This product in my opinion is a must have for all Artist Markers owners.

For each marker color there are 4 round decal pieces which fit perfectly the marker caps. There are two circles identifying the color name and the marker tip type (fine and brush) and also there are 2 circles with just marker names.

I used two decal circles with the tip types to mark all caps of my markers. It was such a joy to do this!

Needless to say that now it’s much more easier for me to identify each marker when I grab them for a project.

One important thing I need to day is that how durable and high quality the decals are. I’m a champion when it comes to messing things up and of course I adhered a wrong decal circle ON THE VERY FIRST MARKER CAP. But it was so easy to remove and it reposition that not only “no one will never know” – I cannot tell it myself as well!

As for the other decal circles – I used them to make the color combo swatches. I’m using “Jennifer McGuire’s system” for almost all my swatches including the one in question. Each swatch is a 2″ square of a Solar White Cardstock stored in these pocket pages.

Onto each swatch square first I stamped a leaf from the Darling Rose Stamp Set using the alcohol ink friendly Permanent Black Ink on the right. Then I adhered decal circles for the combo on the left and colored the leaf using those colors. Also I added a “column” of these markers swatched in the middle, blending one into the next one.

I mentioned above that when I was placing the toppers onto the markers I found out that it was very easy to reposition them. The same thing is applied to them placed onto a cardstock. I needed to reposition several decal circles and removing and applying them was very easy with no damage to a decal or cardstock!

WATERCOLOR ROSES

I used a very beautiful Simple Roses Stamp Set to create this card using one of my favorite color combos – blue and brown.

The flowers and leaves are white embossed onto a watercolor paper, colored with Watercolor Brush Markers and die cut using the matching dies.

Next I die cut a panel out of a white cardstock using the Radial Stars Cover Die.

I blended the Milk Chocolate Dye Ink onto a white card base, added water splatters over the blending and then adhered the panel on top.

After that I adhered the watercolored elements onto the card.

Lastly I popped up the sentiment, which I made using stamps from the Birthday Builder Stamp Set.

COZY FLORAL FALL CARD

The new Sweet Flowers Stamp Set is perfect for a cozy fall card.

I stamped two flower branches using caramel and orange inks and die-cut them using the matching die.

Then I die cut a Cozy Flannel Cover out of a Parchment Cardstock and adhered it onto a card base of the same cardstock.  After that I popped up the flower branches onto the card forming an oval wreath shape.

For the sentiment I used the Bold Thanks Die Set.

Lastly I added several enamel dots.
