Being Kind is Classy

I absolutely love this flower by Concord & 9th! When I saw the colors for the Colour Q Challenge I knew exactly which flower I'd use. I stamped the flower with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. I then watercolored it with Abandoned Coral distress ink and a paint brush (wet on wet technique). The sentiment is from another Concord & 9th set. I used a strip of DCWV gold foil cardstock for an accent.
I am submitting this to the ATCAS Challenge,  ColourQ Challenge and to Simon Says Stamp.

Love is in the Air

Here are two more Valentines that I created to send to hospitalized children. This first one was inspired by some challenges on SCS - the inspiration challenge and the Featured Stamper challenge. The elephant is from WPlus9, the heart balloons are from Newton's Nook and the sentiment is from WoodwareUSA. This was water colored with water color pencils and an aquabrush.  I traced a heart die and then stamped little hearts within the heart lines and then drew the strings with a Micron pen and a ruler.

The Hugs and Kisses card is another pre-printed water color panel from the Love Notes collection from Simon Says Stamps.
