Layered Mosaic Art Card

You'll need...

Magazines (I got some from Walmart for free)

Paper

A pencil

Eraser

Coloured paper 

Glitter glue (optional)

Scissors

Glue

I'm making this as a Mother's Day card but honestly these could be anything: signs,wrapping paper ect. Ect. This kind of art is easy,great for all ages and requires absoulutely no artistic talent. In other words, it's great for everything!

1. Since its a LAYERED card we'll be starting with the background layer. The background will be made of magizine cuttings. Don't use showy, bright colours or else it'll outshine the focal point and you don't want that! Use netural colours or do what I did: cut out articles. Use words, any words from recipes to diper suggestions. Go with the flow! If you're using words then try pasting colourful script now and then.

2. After the background has dried trim the edges to make it neater.

3. Now grab your coloured piece of paper- this will be the second layer. Size it so that it's slightly smaller than your first layer- you can mke it even smaller if you want.

4. Now it's time for your mosaic art. First, lightly sketch out your design. It's very simple. Now all you have to do is cut out pieces of magazines and fit it together. For example, if I were making a square I'd maybe cut out triangles. One triangle then a tiny bit of space before the next triangle.

5. You're done! Now add your own touches to it.

Izayoi Sakamaki

 I tried anime style in watercolours. I still need improvement but it's not bad for my first try.

I'm not really a great phtographer.

Nyx Nightingale

 This is an art trade I did with @arraysofrainbows on Instagram. The drawing below is her original character Nyx in my drawing style.

This is her version of my original character Valentine

This is Valentine. Her shirt fabric is shiny so I put shiny dots but...it looks weird

Fashion Girl

I made her dress using cut outs from magazines.

Mermaid Melody: Hanon Hoshou

 The thing is, I like to draw and I think I'm quite good at it but it's kinda hard to explain how. That's why I mostly do card tutorials here.

Magical Flower Colouring

Tutorial coming soon

Happy Easter!

Elsa Edit

Elsa edits are SUPER popular so I decided to make a tutorial for them. It's coming soon! I'll start with the very basic edit as seen above.

Ibis Paint

It was my first time using this app so I just basically experimented. Once I get the hang of it I'll post some tutorials.

You're So Glam! Booklet

You'll Need..

Paper 

Pencil

Earser

Something Glam (think sparkles)

1. Fold your paper in half. Then fold it again in hamburger style. Now fold it one last time. I chose a white piece of paper but it can be any colour. 

2. Fold it from the middle so that it makes a skinny hotdog fold. Now look at the creases (the lines from the fold)-you can count three. Now cut from the line on to line three. You cut on the edge of the folded part meaning the part opposite from the open flap.

3. Now this is the tricky part. Fold your paper in a hotdog again. You see the cut part? Gently pull on both sides and stop when you see a diamond with a tail at the front and back.

4. Now gently push those two tails towards the middle and stop when you get a weird + like shape. Now you have four tails and the two on the right you squish together and the two on the left you squish together. Squish all four together and now you have a booklet!

5. Now that you have your booklet decorate it! The theme of the "You're So Glam!" card is to over decorate (in a good way) the front cover then on the inside write why your valentine is so glam! Or you can turn it into a glam notebook and give as a gift.

Postcard Valentine

You'll need..

A stamp (optional) 

Paper (coloured or decorated)

Colouring supplies (optional)

An envelope 

Pencil

Earser 

1. Find a blank postcard. If you can't find one then grab a piece of coloured or decorated paper then trim it to make it look like a postcard. If the back isn't blank then glue on a blank piece of paper.

~mine is a paper with lots of quotes

2. Turn to the coloured side and add a stamp. It can be a fake one if you want, simply cut out a small rectangle, colour it then paste it to the upper corner of your postcard.

3. Now write the address. It can be completely made up with any kind of vibe- funny or sweet. Eg. Funny: Chocolate Fudge Streeet, 1367 Strawberry House.

4. Turn to the back and write down a message. You can turn this into an invite to a Valentine party if you want. Or you could write something such as "Because you're so sweet, I made this for you!".

Done! Now just put it in the envelope. If you don't have an envelope simply look here:

Easy Wrapping Paper Valentine's Day Card

You'll Need...

Wrapping paper

Coloured paper

2. Take some coloured paper and glue it to the back.

3. Write a cute message and you're done!

Rapper Duo Card

You'll Need..

A blank sheet of paper

A pencil

An earser 

Colouring supplies

Some sort of fine liner

1. Fold the paper in half then position it so that the flap (the part that opens) faces towards you.

2. Start positioning your characters. Draw a big oval (the size of your character) in the position you want to place it. Draw a line for where the floor is.

3. Okay! Start drawing your characters! Look below for a mini guide.

MINI CHARACTER GUIDE

Our characters will be drawn in the cute, manga chibi style. Of course, our characters are rappers.

1. Draw a large circle to represent the head. Angle the circle based on the position your rappers are in. Then use an oval for the body,fingers and arms.

2. Do the same for the legs and feet only for the legs make a long,skinny oval that grows thinner as it reaches the ankle.

3. Now make the finer lines. Meaning using the guidelines we drew before draw the actual body- no clothes yet! I can't really describe how to draw the head so just look below. (^◇^;)

4. Now for the facial features! Everything in chibi style is rounder and cuter so keep this in mind.

5. Add the clothes and hair. 

6. Fine line, colour and you're done!

MINI GUIDE OVER

 4. Now draw your background. My background is nothing special and needs no drawng done so I'll be skipping that step.

5. Add your title. This kind of card can be used to say things like "Best Friends Forever!" but in my case it's "Get Better Soon...Because Rapping Is More Fun With You!".

6. Time to fine line! Now the time to add any last minute changes. I decided to add a sort of striped silhouette.

~we gangstas and we know it!

7. Colour!

How To On Card Ideas

  This is my guide on thinking up ideas for a card.

1. First, I think up what kind of card I want to make. Get well card? Valentines Day card? 

2. Then I think of the person I'm sending the card too. Do they like manga? A certain cartoon? Are they uptight or do they enjoy a laugh?

3. Next I think of the shape and colour if the card. These all affect the mood. The next card I'm going to make is for a crazy,deranged,orang-loving bestfriend. I know she'd enjoy a good laugh so I decided on a card with a light, humorous attitude.

4. Any special designs they'd enjoy? The magic about handmade cards is that you can show them that you're willing to go the extra mile just to say "I care". If it's for someone like a bestfriend think back to an inside joke you both shared and see if you can incorporate that into the card.

5. Make the card! Glitter,feathers, add whatever you think adds to the mood!

I hope this post helped you...if you have any cards you want me to make it tutorials on manga characters (I haven't done a single one of those here but I am pretty good) please tell me~♥︎
