More details on my blog Kath's Blog Everyday Life Of A Crafter
I began by trimming Distress Watercolor card to create 5 - 3.1/4" x 5.1/4" panels and stamped the images from the Fleurs stamp set with Ground Espresso Distress Archival ink.
I admire all those crafters out there who do amazing colouring on images, me, I ain't one of them so I decided to go with a loosey goosey - colouring outside the lines style using Distress Re-inkers and lots of water. I applied a generous wash of water on the panel, dropped in my chosen colour of Distress Re-inker and let the water do the work, mopping up any excess with a paper towel. I coloured all the leaf areas first using Peeled Paint Distress Re-inker and dried. I then moved on to the flowers and used Wild Honey, Crackling Campfire, Blueprint Sketch, Worn Lipstick and Dusty Concord Distress Re-inkers. I added splatters of Peeled Paint and dried.
I inked the script sentiment from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Flower Shop and holding the stamp in my hands, stamped randomly on each background.
I trimmed, scored and folded co-ordinating colours of Simon Says cardstock (Lemon Chiffon, Cotton Candy, Cornflower Blue, Lavender Purple and Orange Peel) to create 5,1/4" x 6.1/4" cards, matted the panels in the centre and added a squiggly doodled border using a black Fine Liner Pen.
To finish I added a fun quirky twist with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Small Talk Snarky Stickers. |
