Unity Willow Girl-Peace Out card

I was able to play a little in my studio this weekend.  I checked out some sketches and played along.  First up is this simple and versatile one.  I have the DCWV Tie Dyed stack on my desk and this was the perfect use of scraps from some other cards I created.

Here is the sketch:

I splashed some shimmer mist on the background to add another element.  Distress Oxide Spiced Marmalade matched the orange in the peace symbols perfectly.

Ingredients:

DCWV Tie Dyed stack

Unity Willow Girl sentiment

Distress Oxide Spiced Marmalade

Heidi Swapp Hot Pink glimmer mist

white card stock

Willow Girl~Watercolor with Quick Quotes Powderpuff chalking inks

Hello, I have been playing with the latest 2018 PowderPuff Chalking Ink Set.  I love to use a water brush to color an image with the inks.  I recently won this image and I could not have found a more perfect piece of paper on which to stamp it.  This sheet is from the soon to come Spring Showers collection as are the flowers die cuts I created.

Here I am coloring my image.  I stamped and embossed the image to withstand the water I will be using.  The raised edge also helps to contain the ink within the proper place.  I usually paint several layers depending on the intensity of color I desire.  Quick Quotes papers hold up to the many layers and water as well.

I finished my card off with stamping and embossing the sentiment to match.  I die cut the sentiment and added some die cut flowers.  I used sequins in the center of my flowers as well as sprinkling a few among my flower border.  I like to finish off my sequins with a dot of pearl drops to cover the hole.  I think it just looks so neat.

I hope you try using the latest 2018 PowderPuff Chalking Ink Set or any of your Quick Quotes Powderpuff Chalking inks to water color.  The results are beautiful.
