IÂ’m taking a few minutes away from the packing today to post this thank you card that I watercolored for a lovely person I recently met that has been very kind and generous to me. I snuck in a little time a few days ago to make it and have been trying to get a good photo of it and finally the sunshine came out this morning and shared its glorious rays long enough for me to get this shot.
Last month I designed a set of luggage and had so much fun in the design work that I decided to try it again. I changed the colors, the handle, the monogram, and the clasp and came up with a slightly altered design. I watercolored several tulips from the Thank You stamp simply tulip set by Flourishes using a combination of Yarka paints and Tombow markers. Dimensionals were utilized to pop up the two larger tulips for added dimension. I used the small monogrammer from JustRite Stampers for the initial “K”. The decorative design and initial were colored with Stampin’ Up! markers direct to rubber and topped off with Dazzling Diamonds, although it’s a bit difficult to see the sparkle in the photo. The faux stitching was done using a white gel pen from Sakura.
