Many Ways to Color #10

Hi and welcome to my blog. I pulled out my chalks that I have not used in ages to color the birds on my card today. I really enjoyed coloring with chalks again. I loved the way they blended so well. I found a background in my stash where I had stamped a plaid background with white acrylic paint and then blended on some ink colors. I used the die that went with the birds to cut out the image and then adhered the birds onto the background.

Here is the inside of the card with the rest of the saying.

               Plaid Background - Impression Obsession

"Curious Kitten"

to one lucky winner!

I am using an old stamp today. I love these cute Happy Hoppers by House Mouse. Ice cream is a great way to keep cool on a hot summer day! He better eat it quickly before it melts! I used a layering stencil behind the image that looks like sunrays. It reminds me of those mid summer days, so sizzling hot and humid!

Many Ways to Color #9

Hi and welcome to my blog. I am using a different way to color today called pointillism. Pointillism was originated by two artists, Georges Seurat and Paul Signac in the mid 1880s. I love the unique look of this technique. However, I would not want to paint this way on a big project! LOL! I used the nib point on my markers to tap little dots on the poppy that my good stamping friend gave me. 

Stamp:  Poppy - Hero Arts

Dies:     Butterfly - Cheery Lynn

             Stitched Ovals - Gina Marie

Embossing Folder: Emboss and Cut - Marianne

Hi and welcome to my blog. Today I have made a card using a Hero Arts floral stamp and a fun technique. I stamped the the image and then colored it in using a white colored pencil. The pencil caused a resist when I sponged colors over the image.
