Hello Crafters!
Happy Sunday!
I hope you guys had an amazing weekend!
I worked all weekend but at least it wasn't snowing.
It was still like 38 degrees though.
Until Spring officially shows up I'll just keep making it bloom in my craft room.
Here's a sweet Spring scene I shared over on the WPlus9 blog last week.
I wanted to color up these darling girls but I was feeling too lazy to mask.
Enter watercolor and die cuts to save the day! Weird, I know. They aren't my usual super heroes.
I used Distress Oxides to watercolor the background and the floral border die cuts. Then set to work copic coloring these little girls, who are just adorable. I couldn't wait to put them in a scene. I think of them as sisters probably because I have two myself.
Once the copic coloring was done I used foam tape to pop up my two borders so the girls look like they are in a field of flowers.
You can see the entire card from start to finish in the video below.
I think it came out super cute. What about you?
I love how no matter what kind of card you normally make changing just one thing can make it look totally different. For me it's those cut floral borders :)
Thank you guys so much for dropping in!
I'll be back soon with another video for you :)

Kelly, can you provide the 3 colors for the skin tone? I kept slowing down the video but could only catch the E04. Beautiful coloring! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute card, Kelly. Thanks for the idea of putting die cuts in front of figures like these...it creates good perspective. tfs
ReplyDeleteIt is very pretty
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card and yes the stripes in a stamp sometimes makes me unsure how to do it, so thank you so much for the tips in the video. I thought it where sister to, so normal that you say that. Thanks for another awesome card and video!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Great scene and I love the watercolor soft hint of flowers in the background.
