Spring Greetings

Hi there,

I created this sweet watercolor spring card using the Anjas Basteltraum Häschenschule set:

  • stamp the beautiful tree from the Anjas Basteltraum Häschenschule set with Distress Ink Antique Linen onto a rectangular panel of watercolor paper
  • color the image and the background with Mijello Mission Gold watercolors
  • add highlights with a white gel pen
  • cut out the Karten-Kunst Frühlingsgrüße from Tonic Studios Pearlescent Card Gleaming Lilac
  • vanilla sequins are the final embellishments


I hope you got inspired to created your own little watercolor painting.

Hugs,

Fall in Love

Hi there,

I created this sweet Fall Tag for Gerda Steiner Designs:

  • stamp the adorable little squirrel couple from the Gerda Steiner Designs Fall in Love set with Lawn Fawn Crunchy Leaf 
  • color the image with Delta, Touch Twin Brush and Copic Markers and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • cut out a Clearly Besotted Rounded Tag from woodgrain cardstock 
  • add a little grass border cut from watercolor paper with the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border die and color it with Distress Oxide Ink (Scattered Straw, Vintage Photo) - add some splatters for more texture as well
  • stamp the sentiment from the same set onto a Tonic Glazed Chestnut sentiment strip  with Versamark and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
  • thread a piece of pink and a piece of brown twine through the hole of the tag
  • add some pink acrylic hearts from Little Things from Lucy's Cards as final embellishments


Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs,

Thanks Cat

Hi there,

I used one of my all time favorites the Gerda Steiner Designs Cat with Balloons on this card:

  • color the Gerda Steiner Designs Cat with Balloons with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens and a damp watercolor brush
  • add highlights with a glass dip pen
  • create an accent strip on Lanavanguard Paper using Alcohol Inks (Cool Peri, Pink Sherbet, Aqua)
  • adhere the strip to a white cardbase, add the cat on top and cut out the thanks from the Lawn Fawn Gift Box die set from Tonic Luna Silver cardstock
  • add little dots to the right side of the cat using DIY Distress Gouache and a glass dip pen
  • round the top right corner with a 1'' corner rounder


I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,
