Blushing Just for You.....

 

Don't you just LOVE the gorgeous Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper.....It's available in the new Occasions Catalogue.    For this card, I've teamed it with Love Blossoms DSP and a couple of stamps for a quick, but very eye catching card.

You've Got Bliss....

 

Card number 2 from the watercolour class.

 

To create this technique....stamp your image onto watercoloured paper using a dark ink colour, then use your aquapainter to spread the colour into the white space of the image...... a quick and easy way to colour a line art image.

Watercoloured You've Got This......

 

I've been playing with my new favourite set.....You've Got This. 

 

I did a different style of card this time.... orientation, colour palette and style.

 

Here 'tis.....

 

I've watercoloured the flower quite extensively, using watercolour paper, aqua painter and ink.  I've also added a touch more colour to the stem, this time just picking up a little of the Cucumber Crush ink and quickly applying it inside the already green outline of the stem and leaves.

 

I've also backed the Dotted Lace Trim Ribbon with Whisper White cardstock, to allow the colour to stand out against the darker background card.

 

Here's a close up of the watercoloured flower.  All done using Watermelon Wonder ink picked up from the lid of the ink pad.  I've added the colour to the stamens (I think that's what you call them - but I am generally horticultural-ly challenged) using the Stamp'n'Write marker.

 

Colours: Whisper White, Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush, Delightful Dijon, Tip Top Taupe.

Stamps: Petite Pairs, You've Got This

Other: Watercolour paper, aqua painter, basic rhinestones, Watermelon Wonder Dotted Lace Trim Ribbon
