Life is Sweet.....
Happy Monday! It's back to schedules, work and routine after a great and relaxing weekend of doing whatever the moment held! I love weekends like that....they make life sweet--don't you think?
Every so often, I like to drag out a little used product and goof around with it. Lately, my water color crayons have been on my mind. I haven't used them in years. I've been doing a lot of water coloring with ink and thought maybe I'd try something new for a bit.
I chose Floral Silhouette Bouquet, from I Brake For Stamps, for my first card. After coloring with various crayons directly onto the stamp surface, I lightly misted with water and stamped on smooth card stock. When it was completely dry, I outlined the entire image with an ultra fine black marker, Pigma Micron 005, to be specific. It's an interesting look--the outcome is hugely dependent on the image and a steady hand! I'll have to keep at it :)
My second card, includes a similar technique to create the background. For this one, I used the diamond background stamp from Typewriter/Diamonds Half Sheet. I finished the card off with a sentiment from the Binoculars and Golf Ball Half Sheet. Both sheets can be found in the I Brake For Stamps store. You can save by using my coupon code--SAVE10JANE
What goodies do you have tucked away that need to come out and play??
Drag them out and be awesome! Jane
