I made another card that ended up using the colors from yesterday's color challenge on SCS. I have had this Gerbera daisy from TAC for a while. I used it several times when I first got it but it hasn't been out of the box since then. I really love this stamp so I pulled the box down last night. Thanks to my husband, Chris, I finally know how to watercolor better than I did. I'm nowhere as good as he is but I'm getting better. I used the striped paper in my retro paper pack I picked up the other day. I used my reinkers and blender pen to color the daisy. I scribbled off some color to do the light petals. Then, on the dark petals I went back and colored over it with my blue glitter pen.
I did take another picture at another angle so you can see the sparkle. I can't wait to send some of these out! I made 6 of them.
I normally do that. When I sit down and make a card I try to make several of them so I have some ready to go when I need them. Do you do that? How do you make your cards? One at a time or do you make an assembly line? I'm curious. Do you make a little bit and then leave it to finish later? Or do you have to finish it before you get up from the table? I feel like this might be my blog candy question! I'll take a picture of the goodies I have to give away and post it soon. I'll pick a random number from the replies to this post! Good luck!
I made this card for the Cameo challenge during VSN. I used darker colors and pulled out my nesties to cut the ovals. I was not paying attention when I made this card. I stamped the snowflakes with my Versamark and then put clear EP on it instead of white! So I had to reheat it and add the white EP over the clear. It took a little longer that way and was really a pain! But at least I could save it- it wouldn't have looked the same with clear snowflakes!
