Inspire Me Monday – Ruffled Up!

Hey everyone, Jessie here today with another Inspire Me Monday for you all! Today I am painting up the Wild Ruffled Orchids!
I had a blast with this image, playing with a new watercolour brush that I got for Mother’s Day, this was the first real image that I got to paint with it. But I love this brush!

As per usual, I have a process video to share with you all!
Happy colouring

The Greeting Farm May Release BLOG HOP!

It’s the 15th, and that means the new MAY Stamps are NOW available for purchase in The Greeting Farm Store. Our first set, BEACH BUMS, has all the elements to create a relaxing pool or beach-side scene. Next, we introduced a cute jellyfish, adorable octopus, and fabulous squid in the HANDS DOWN set. With summer right around the corner, we couldn’t forget about camping and s’mores in the S’MORE FUN set. And finally, the HAPPY TO SEA YOU set showcased more sea fun with an awesome shark and whale, along with additional sea creatures.

To celebrate we are having a BLOG HOP, where one lucky fan will take home all 4 sets!! Pretty AMAZING! Be sure to leave a comment on each designer’s blog, and then head back to The Greeting Farm Blog to let us know you completed the hop. Easy Peasy!

For my card, I used the S’MORE FUN stamp set. The background was created using Distress Inks and Watercolours. The characters and scene elements were coloured with Copic Markers.

The Greeting Farm - Happy to Sea You - Jessie Banks

I jumped on the alcohol ink trend and created this fun background for the whale, which I coloured up using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens. I stamped the sentiment on white paper and turned it into a sweet little banner!

Hey everyone! Welcome to day 3 of previews for Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps, there are two sets being previewed today Busy Beatrice and Buffy Bingewatcher!

26230310_10155746429316014_6216438707406095454_n

As she has chosen not to design stamps anymore and has ended her contract, we can no longer restock/reorder ANY of her stamp sets. Once these sell out, they are gone for good so be sure to snap them up!

Kraftin Kimmie Stamps - Bufft Bingewatcher - Jessie Banks

I kept this card super simple, I stamped it out with my Memento Desert Sand ink and coloured her up with my copic markers. I love the no lines look of colouring, it is one of my favorite things to do.

The Greeting Farm - S'more Fun - Jessie Banks

So I did my first attempt at cross stitching on a card for this one, it’s not perfect, but I think it turned out super cute. I coloured up the little boy and his fire and popped him up on top!
