Guest designer # 4 - Yani Ramos

Hello everyone, it's Yani here!

I was asked by my friend Alberto from Shaky A. Stamps to create a video using one of his images, so here it is!

But before you get to the video, let me show you the finished card...

The beautiful image is *Penelope in the Ocean* by Shaky A. stamps, of course ;) And she was colored with Prismacolor Pencils, like you will see in the video. I also added stickles and liquid pearls to her face and hair to make it *pop* a little bit ;) Papers are Maya Road and flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts. The doily is Magnolia and the rest are trims and cheese cloth.

Now here's video. I hope that you enjoy it! :)

Big hugs, Yani and the Shaky A. design team!

Guest Designer #3 - Laura!

Hi everyone... it's Laura here!

I'm so proud to have been chosen as the GD from Alberto.

I'm in love with the new Shaky A. digistamps collection and Penelope has stolen my heart. 

So I decided to colour "Penelope in the ocean".

A monochromatic version in total blue.

I used the Polychromos Faber Castell pencils... I love them!

The embellishments are from my stash: the little chalks handmade by me.

The sentiment is one of the set of stamps...  Alberto wrote it with his heart.

I hope to be an inspiration for you.

 I enjoyed and I recommend you take a look in the Shaky A Etsy shop.

Thank you so much to Alberto and his team for the friendly hospitality.

Laura

Guest Designer #2 - Iris

Hello everyone, it's Iris here

Happy Hump Day Everyone! Today I like to share a creation with you as a guest designer forShaky A. digi stamps. I love Alberto's stamp line and was thrilled when he asked me if I would like to guest design. He recently opened his Etsy shop Shaky A. Planet where you will find all his stamps available for immediate download. Some wonderful inspiration from the DT can be found on the Shaky A. blog HERE.

For my card I used Penelope and I colored her using Copics. 

I sprinkled some shabby white embossing powder around the image. The sentiment comes with the image. Dies used are from Memory Box, which I also sprinkled and embossed with shabby silver embossing powder, and Magnolia. Flowers, lace and ribbon are from my stash. Filmstrip is from Tim Holtz and the papers are Maja Design.

A closer look:

Thanks for stopping by today and I'll have another Shaky A. creation to show here on my blog later this week. Make sure you come back and check! 

Hugs, Iris!

Guest Designer #1 - Madeline!

Hellooo!

It's madeline here!

But that's not all the fun that has happened - I was asked by talented Loshakerato Alberto to be a Guest Designer for his stamp brand Shaky A stamps! I was so honoured and said yes immediately! I decided to do two tags that you can use as bookmarks, although there are some embellishments that are a little elevated, it's no problem using them as bookmarks!

Here is the first bookmark... I have used a gorgeous pink design paper from Inkido Beautiful Memories Collection (Inkido is closing its production so this paper will soon be very rare!)

The stamp from Shaky A is called Princess of my life and you can find it here. The beautiful lace is something I just bought at Live and Love Crafts, it's sooo beautiful!! The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the clay embellishments are made with Martha Stewart clay and molds. I have coloured the stamp with Copics and the combinations I have used are the following:

Skin: E000, E04, E11, E21, E00, R20 (eyes:) BG49, BG13

Hair: E18, E15 Hat and dress: R89, R85, R83, R81

hite dots: Poscapen

Vails: R85, R83, R81 Wings: Y17, Y15, Y11, Y000

And here's my next tag/bookmark! This is made with a Shaky A stamp called Magic Everyday and you can find her here. The design paper is the same as the one above and the lace is a different one I just bought at Live and Love Crafts. The colours I used to colour this stamp up are the following: Skin: E000, E04, E11, E21, E00, R20 (eyes:) YG03, YG67, YG11 Hair: E29, E25, E21 Dress: Purple: V09, V15, V12, V01 Pink: R85, R83, R81 Wings: Y17, Y15, Y11, Y000 White dots: Poscapen

So, that's what I had to show you today! Thank you very much Alberto for this opportunity, totally enjoyed colouring these two stamps up - they are very colouring friendly If you want to see more of Shaky A stamps, visit the Etsy store here. Happy Crafting! xoxo Madeleine
