Watercoloring fun!

Hello Ai Fans!

I am having more fun practicing my watercoloring and watching more of Bonnie's wonderful video's! If you haven't seen the "Watercolor Wednesday's" that Bonnie does then you have to head on over to YouTube and get watching! It's watercoloring the Art Impressions way and Bonnie has so many great tips and tricks to get you started!

I played around combining a bunch of different stamps sets to make these cards! That's part of the fun....... there are a million different combinations you can create with just a few sets of the Watercolor stamp sets. Ok..... maybe not a million LOL, but many different ways that's for sure!

I used the following sets on these 3 cards:

Wooden Chair Mini Set

Garden Wagon Mini Set

WC Small Container Set

WC Birds Set

WC Flower Set 2

WC Foliage Set 2

Tombow markers used:

N60, 925, 249, 126, 879, 725, 451, 847

Happy Stamping!

Christmas In July!

Hello HH Fans!!

No your eyes aren't playing tricks on you it's Christmas in July LOL!! I'm using the High Hopes stamp called "Snowman Pile" to create my cute card. Since it's not "traditionally" the time to make a Christmas card, I thought I'd also use non-traditional colours as well!

I stamped and cut out my image using a Stitched Tag die. Then I coloured it using my Copic Sketch Markers in colours to match my Designer papers. I also inked all the edges of my papers with Distress Ink in Vintage Photo for some added dimension. I added the "Peace, Love, Joy" sentiment in the bottom corner. A few enamel dots, ribbon, bow and snowflake are my embellishments this time for this card.

Copics Used:

Snowmen: C1, N8

Blue Greens: BG72, BG75, BG78

Violets: V91, V93, V95, V99

Red Violets: RV52, RV55

Snow: B0000, B0000

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stamping!

Fun In The Sun!

Howdy!!

I'm so excited to be joining this fabulous team of Designers over at Craftin Desert Divas. It's going to be so much fun getting to know everyone and seeing what they all create! Lots of inspiration for sure!

Today I am sharing with you my first post on the Digital Design Team. This is the super sweet "Sandcastle Girl"! You get 4 different images in the set. I made a little scene with the set on my computer, printed it out and then using my Copic markers coloured it all in!

I decided to use papers from the Doodlebug "Under the Sea" 6x6 collection and some of the Matte Sprinkles from the girl assortment. I am also using the CDD Fancy Frames dies around my image. I made the sentiment on my computer and added some paper layers behind it.

I am also playing along with the July Monthly Mood Board Challenge.

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E11, E21, R20

Hair: E53, YR23, Y11, Y21

Pinks: RV04, RV06

Purple: V04, V08

Greens: YG23, YG25

Sand: E30, E31, E33, E34, E35, E37

Happy Stamping!

Anything Goes Challenge!

It's July!!

Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian Friends! It's the start of another month and a new Challenge over on the High Hopes Blog! The theme is "Anything Goes" and all you have to do is use a High Hopes Stamp. We even offer a free digi if you don't have any of our stamps!! I'm using an older stamp called "Time Well Spent".

I am using a new puzzle piece die for the first time on this card! I must add a shout out to my friend Donna who was over to craft and helped me decide how to use the die! I added the sentiment "Me & You" to the front. I thought it was perfect for this little boy and his dog who I am sure is his best friend! A few enamel dots finish everything off.
