Happy Birthday – Three Room Studios

2020-08 TRS Birthday Hop

So excited to be celebrating the 5th birthday of Three Room Studios today!! Sandy Boone is as talented of an artist as she is a wonderful human being! It’s been an honor to work with her so I wanted to pull out all the stops for this one – get your masking paper ready!!

Quick tips:

  • I start scenes like this by stamping on a piece of copy paper cut to A2 size.  I don’t worry about masking, just getting the placement right.
  • I then place that “sample” in my Misti to line up the stamps, starting in the front (in this case the cat and plant).
  • For the “desk”, I used the bottom half of the cubicle – to get a clean stamp, I put tape over the top half, ink it and remove the tape before stamping.
  • See product list below for details on stamps used.

Thanks so much for stopping by! And if you didn’t arrive here from Instagram, be sure to check out my account there for a hop of super talented artists celebrating the big day!

Yay! – Three Room Studio New Release

Hooray watermark

Time for a new Three Room Studio release!

As soon as I saw this new image from the new Yay! set, I thought “that’s me, excited about my giant stack of birthday presents”.  Except my hair isn’t that good and my waist isn’t that thin.

(And a quick note on the coloring – her pants are colored with C5, C7 and C10.  I intended for them to look like black pants but somehow that color combo was a perfect “dark wash denim”.  It’s like some kind of crazy Copic magic!)

I searched through some of my other sets for the “presents” and used the following:

I just added some lines with a Copic safe pen for the ribbons, a little bit of easy masking and a mountain of presents just waiting to be opened was created!

Now my mind is racing – what else could she be excited about!?
