Grateful for You

I am grateful that I had a little time to stamp today! There are so many challenges out there in blogland and I created this card for a few of them:

Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes

Just Us Girls - Leaves

Addicted to CAS - Watercolor

One Layer Simplicity Challenge - Fall colors (yellow, orange, red)

Virginia's View Challenge - Focal Point

CAS Watercolor Challenge - Autumn

I used the Simon Says Stamp / Altenew Be-Leaf Me stamp set and distress inks to create this card. This is a layered stamp set and so easy and fun to use! I spritzed the stamp after inking to create the watercolor on the leaves. I finished it off with a few sequins.

Thanks for coming by!

Watercolored Mums

The color challenge at SCS is peach, watermelon and pear pizzazz. I embossed this PaperArtsy flower stamp with gold embossing powder and then watercolored them with my Zig Clean Color Brush pens.  After coloring them I trimmed off the right side of the panel and overlaid that panel on top of some gold and white striped paper from PaperTrey.

I will submit this to Kathy's 30 Day Coloring Challenge and to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge which is Anything Goes.

Poppy Gems with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers

I have been wanting to try using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to paint flowers since I saw Kristina Werner's post here.  I used Poppy Gems by Penny Black and embossed the image with white embossing powder. I then colored in the flowers using the same colors that Kristina used. I colored over the flowers with a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter pen for some shimmer.  Mine came out differently but I learned a lot about using some colors together that I never would have tried!

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Muse Challenge #171

Color Throw Down #398

Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Add Shimmer

Penny Black and More Challenge - Flower Power

Virginia's View - All About the Color
