Blue Wild Flora

Happy Sunday!

I’m back again with another card that I did using a new set I purchase from Altenew called Wild Flora.  I had fun coloring this image with my Prismacolor pencils.  I usually use gamsol and paper stumps, but this time I just did a burnishing technique with the pencils.  I did one in bright blues that I’ll post at a later time and this one with muted blues and brown for a challenge they have at Altenew for January here.

Here is my take on the challenge.

Sorry, the quality of my photos isn’t the best.  This card looks much nicer in real life!

Here are the products I used:

Stamps: Wild Flora (Altenew), Short & Sweet (Stampin Up)

Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)

Paper: Solar White (Neenah), Kraft (Recollections), Bordering Blue (Stampin Up)

Accessories: Guilt Trip Mini Prills, glue, Platimun Liquid Pearls (Ranger), Large Oval, Scalloped Oval punches (Stampin Up), half back pearls, Bow-Easy Tool, Danish Blue seam binding, Prismacolor Pencils: Periwinkle, Mediterranean Blue, Limepeel, Olive Green, Dark Green, Ginger Root, Cool Grey 50%, Black (no mineral spirits used)

Hope you enjoyed my project today and you have a wonderful Sunday!

Blessings!

Cherry Blossoms Thank You

Hello there!

I am back again creating!  I'm finally remember where things are in my craft room...for the most part anyway!  I have created quite a few projects the past few weeks, but I'm struggling with an old computer trying to figure out photo editing, watermarking, etc. all over again.  It took me longer to get the photo of the card here than it did to make it!

Anyway, here is a fairly clean and simple thank you card.  I love this dark blue and bright green color combo.  I colored this old Cherry Blossoms image from my stash with new Zig markers I recently bought.  I'm still learning how to use these, but they are fun to use and a little quicker than pencils.

Cherry Blossoms Thank You
