today, the whole DT is showcasing the adorable mini A Cozy Day In stamp set!! i love love love this set! that sweet sweet scene is SOOOOO cute!!
you can totally use this to scrapbook, create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase on May 20th, right here!
i watercolored my 1st card with Distress Markers:
I fussy cut it out, and then popped it up over that watercolor background i made by using the packaging technique and some Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink!
that strip of star washi was too perfect NOT to use! i'm guessing i'm not the only one who stays up WAY to late reading (just ONE more chapter! ha!)
love it! that's right, i colored a giant purple chair!! just look how comfy it look! ha!!
i fussy cut the image out, again, and then added some accents with my white gel pen! (hello polka dotted pj's!!)
i also added some texture with an almost bokeh-ish stencil and some white embossing paste!

They're both so beautifully colored! I actually go out the lines on purpose when water coloring, I think that makes it artsy and I love that! Blue and yellow on the first card is so fun, and the PJ's on the second one is adorable!
ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are adorable. I love your coloring of the images. The star Washi border brings everything together.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful coloring on both cards, and I love the white details you added on the second card.
