Feeling Young

The older we get, the more we want to laugh...sometimes this is the only exercise our stomach muscles get. We also tend to develop quite a few quirks, too many to name. And my point was...Still, I had fun coloring this lady. Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   Senior Years
   One More Year

Paper:
   Blushing Bride A-2
   Birthday Memories DSP 5 x 3-3/4
   Basic White 2 x 1-5/8 (2), 2" Sq., 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)
   Paper Pumpkin Leftover Tags

Ink:
   Tuxedo Black Memento
   Blushing Bride

Markers:
   Blushing Bride
   Daffodil Delight
   Old Olive
   Pacific Point
   Petal Pink
   Real Red

Technique:
   CAS
   Coloring

Accessories:

First, I stamped and colored the image on the 2" Basic White Square. I've listed the markers that I used, but you can choose your favorites. FYI: I always choose colors from the DSP to help bring everything together.

I then took two leftover paper pumpkin tags and stamped the two sentiments. 

Next, using Blushing Bride ink, I stamped the other two Basic White pieces with bursts of color.

I then added the two sentiments, diagonally, and trimmed off any excess. I thought this added a bit of interest to the card.

Next, I adhered the Birthday Memories DSP panel to the center of the Blushing Bride card front.

I then adhered the three squares in the center of the card front as shown above.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Bravo Roses

This specialty paper is already heat embossed in white. All I have to do is add whatever color I wish and then wipe away the excess. I think it looks great. Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   Stippled Roses

Paper:
   Handsome Hunter A-2
   Basic White 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 1-1/2 x 3-1/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)
   Irresistibly Floral DSP 5-1/4 x 4
   Bravo Burgundy 1-3/4 x 3-1/2

Ink:
   Handsome Hunter
   Bravo Burgundy

Technique:
   CAS
   Watercolor - Emboss-Resist (DSP)

Accessories:
   Basic Rhinestone Jewels
   Dimensionals
   Adhesive

First, I added color to the emboss-resist specialty paper, using Handsome Hunter re-inker and a watercolor brush.

I then set it aside to dry. Once it was dry, I wiped it clean with a paper towel. The ink on the embossed images will lift right up, leaving the background colored.

Next, I attached it to a Basic White matte and then adhered it to a Handsome Hunter card front.

I then stamped the stippled roses on the small Basic White piece, using Bravo Burgundy ink.

Next, I adhered it to a Bravo Burgundy matte and attached it to the card front, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a couple of Basic Rhinestone Jewels to the roses and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
