Despite that I have torn my craft room apart, moving it from the basement to the upstairs office, I had to play along in today's Free For All challenge. I have brand new watercolors that I wanted to try out and I love the challenge- a CASE of Admiration. Since starting stamping and finding SCS, I have been an admirer of Karen Dunbrook's, studying every card she's made to learn her secrets. It was an obvious choice to case Karen, but not so obvious was what to case! I could case everyone of her cards!
So, I chose bits of a couple of cards Here and Here . I wanted to break out the new watercolors as well as copy the floral corner collage style of Karen's.
Not so sure I am in love with the watercolored background, but I will definitely be giving it another go. The flowers were watercolored as well and then detail added with Prismacolor Pencils.
Thanks for all of your inspiration, Karen!
