watercoloring – Von Marie

Thanks for being there!

Hi everyone! I have a coloring card process video over on my YouTube Channel. You can watch it here:

I made this card using Unity Stamps Care and Hope Iris illustrated by friend Sandhya Ilyer. It’s such a beauty. I first stamped it onto Canson Mixed Media 138lb. watercolor paper with Versafine ink and Clear embossing powder from Hero Arts. I began coloring with my New Tombow Markers with tropical colors in mind. The colors I used are 195, 725, 817, 126, and 026. I used my #2 Silver Black Velvet Brush with a little bit of water. I did dry my panel in between layers using my Wagner Heat Tool. I also used my Prismacolor Colored pencils for the nooks and crannies in Pc034 Golden rod, and Pc 913 Spring Green. I then used Ellen Hutson’s Rectangle frame dies to cut out my panel using my Spellbinders Platinum die cutting Machine. I also cut it out with a orangly color to match my background and doubled them up. I added foam to my A2 card base which I like the dimension a little bit more than foam tape sometimes before adding my panel.

I had stamped and heat embossed a bunch of these sentiment strips from Taylored Expressions You are the Best and then used the Asymmetrical die to cut them out. I also added foam to the back before adding it onto my panel. Lastly, I added some sequins from Catherine Pooler to match. I hope you have enjoyed my card and details. Thank you for stopping by!

I miss you, that is all!

Hi everyone! I have a card to show you today! I watercolored this floral beauty from Not2Shabby’s Bouquet of Happiness. I also have a card process video on my YouTube Channel and I would love you to watch and subscribe. https://youtu.be/-sUfh5JFAQc

I first cut out a rectangle of watercolor cardstock from Arteza 110lb coldpress cardstock. I then stamped and heat embossed the floral images with Ranger Gold embossing powder. Some of my bigger floral image didn’t get embossed all the way, so that is the reason for the smaller flowers. I colored the florals with Derwent Inktense Pencils, and a Altenew water brush. The colored pencils I used are Cadmium Yellow 0210, Sun Yellow 0200, Scarlet Pink 0320, and Carmine Pink 0520. When I was happy with my results I fussy cut the florals.

I cut out another piece of Arteza cardstock with a Gina Marie Designs Double stitched Rectangle die. I then used my Altenew Watercolors gray paint for my background. I probably painted three layers and then air dried it with my heat gun. I then added the darker yellow for my water paint splatters. I added my flowers with foam tape to my panel. I also added foam tape to my double stitched rectangle before adding it to my Neenah Solar white 110 card base. Lastly, I added yellow drops with pops of color pearl-Yellow Chiffon. I hope you like my card. Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Birthday Darling!

Hi my friends! I hope your doing great on this Tuesday! I have a Birthday card to share today using a new to me company! Colorado Craft Company.

So I used this stamp set called Lovely Legs Valentine Stamp from Colorado Craft Company. Since I didn’t use it for Valentine’s Day it has these Birthday sentiments. So that is what I did. I stamped this image onto Taylored Expressions Watercolor cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink. I then colored the image in with Prima Pastel watercolors and Prima Complexion watercolor paints and my black velvet brush and water. I painted the background also and flickered paint splatters with white Copic Paint and a silverish Hydracolour paint.

I cut out my watercolor panel out with a die from My Creative Time and placed my panel in my Misti to stamp and heat emboss the sentiment with Versafine black ink and Hero Arts Clear embossing powder. I then cut out some colored cardstock to match using a A2 stitched rectangle. I glued my panel to my colored cardstock and then to my A2 card base. Lastly, I added some sequins to match. I hope you like my Birthday card, it was so much fun to make. I really like this company so you may see another card from me using another stamp set. Thank you for stopping by!

Fall Bouquet

Hi everyone! I have a Fall card today, even if I didn’t use traditional Fall colors I had a lot of fun making it.

I used this beautiful stamp set called Fall Bouquet by Miss Ink Stamps. I first stamped the florals and stems onto Taylored Expressions Watercolor Paper with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink using my Misti stamping tool. I then used my Karin Brush Markers, Silver Black Velvet brush, and some water to color my florals to my liking. I did let it dry and came back the next day to add a little more layers. I then fussy cut them both out.

I used some pieces of cardstock with watercolor paper using a double stitched rectangle from Gina Marie Designs. I splattered it with my Gansai Tambi gold paint using Starry Colors using paintbrush. I also used a left over red color from my Karin Marker. After it was dry, I added my panel to a A2 card base. I added my stems with liquid glue and then added my florals with foam tape. I put my card front into my misti and stamped and heat embossed the sentiment with Ranger Gold powder and my Versamark ink. Lastly, I added some glitter gold enamel dots. I hope you like my card. Thank you for stopping by!

I used some Afflitiate Links but at no cost to you if you click on them.
