Splashes of Watercolor

Enjoy - Color Throwdown #599

~

Happy Wednesday, everybody!

It's time for a brand new Color Throwdown challenge and this week our generic colors are Pink, Yellow, Blue, and Green.

~

~

I made a birthday card using only dies and watercoloring.  

~

~

I used the Altenew Fantasy Floral dies and a retired Papertrey Ink sentiment die, for a clean and simple card.

We'd love for you to play along with us!  Check out the challenge details at the CTD blog and visit with the other designers here:

Happy Father's Day with Power Poppy

~

Happy Friday, y'all!

Today I have a card I made for Father's Day using the Take a Deep Breath digital stamp set from Power Poppy.

~

~

This is the first time I've used this image, and now I'm wondering why I waited so long!  I love it!

I printed the image on X-Press It paper and colored it with my Copic markers.  The sentiment was a generic font I printed with the image.  I die cut it, and while it was still in the die I air brushed it with a Copic marker.  I added some Glossy Accents too, but they are really hard to see in the photo.

Keeping it simple since it's for a guy!

Be sure to check the Power Poppy blog to see which other designers have posted cards today!

With Sympathy - Color Throwdown #598

~

Happy Wednesday, y'all!  It's time for a brand new Color Throwdown challenge!  This week our generic colors are Pink, Aqua, Gold, and White.  (And you can use any other neutrals that you wish.)

~

~

I used a lot of gray in my card this week, but that's because it's a sympathy card and also because I wanted my gold sentiment to show up better on the darker cardstock.  Isn't this image beautiful?  And it's so easy to color!

~

I hope you will play along with us!  Check out the CTD blog for details and the blogs of these lovely and talented ladies:

Friday Fun with Power Poppy

~

Happy Friday, everyone!

Today I have a softly colored sympathy card to share with you. 

I watched Sandy Allnock's video on Wednesday and knew right away that I wanted to try her technique using a Copic airbrush system.  It has such a beautiful ethereal look when complete.

~

~

I used an image from the beautiful Power Poppy Sassy Succulents stamp set, with a generic sentiment.  I also used a hill/slope die to cut the top edge of the panel for  some added interest. 

You can head on over to the Power Poppy blog to see a list of the designers who are posting a card today.

You're So Cool - Color Throwdown #596

~

Hello, and happy Wednesday!!  It's time for a brand new Color Throwdown challenge!  Our generic colors this week are Red, Orange, and Green.

~

~

The fruit in the inspiration photo was a real influence on my decision to use a generic fruit stamp set that I have (purchased at Hobby Lobby a LONG time ago.)  Then I saw a tv commercial for AHA Sparkling water and that was what I based my card design on.

~

~

After I stamped all the fruit using Distress inks, I made masks for them, then airbrushed each section with Copic markers and my Copic airbrush system.  It was a tedious process, but also fun!  The great little sentiment is from a Lil' Inker Designs set called Rainbow Cloud Sentiments.

I would love to see what y'all do with these colors!  Check out the details for the challenge at the CTD blog and be sure to visit with our designers for some wonderful inspiration.
