2021 Card Design Superstar Challenge

Posted in Caran D'ache, colored pencil, Luminance, My Favorite Things by

Hey all! Today I am sneaking in under the wire to play along with the MFT Stamps Colouring Virtuoiso Challenge.

I pulled out my Tweet Friends stamp set from MFT and Stacey Yacula.

Stamping it with my Cement Gray ink pad, and pulling out my coloured pencils and getting to work!

I have always loved the look of pencils on toned paper, kraft, gray, or black I love all of them with my coloured pencils. After slowly building up the layers to get the main image coloured up. I added a start white outline just to let the little bird pop off theback ground. Some gental scratchy colouring to give the feeling of a background really did finish this one off.

Thanks for stopping by

Hey friends! Today I am sharing my project for this years MFT Stamps 2021 Card Design Superstar Challenge Clean and Simple!

I started by cutting out the Artist Palette and Brush die. I do believe it may be retired, but I have never used it and this card idea was just to perfect for this challenge not to!

Using distress ink and watercolour to colour the die cuts as well as.

A ruler and a black pen added some great little details to frame this simple design in!
