I chose to do my typical thing and  blew the image up and cropped it onto a A2 size card front! I coloured the image with everything I could imagine, watercolours, Copics, coloured pencils and gouache!

This image is so lovely and I cant wait to print it up again, I think I would like to do it in more subdued colours!

I love this image, Marcella created this one for Rhea’s 50th birthday! It is so lovely! You can grab Orchid Dreams Digital Image here.

I painted this one up with watercolour using both my Schmicke set as well as a couple Daniel Smith paints. I don’t keep track of the paints I use as they are always mixed together and different colours layered on top of eachother. But I do take my time and add lots of layers.

There are some other examples using this image from the wonderful Design Team!

Chickadee in Barberry

Posted in Power Poppy, Schmincke, Uncategorized, Watercolor by

Hey everyone, today I have a watercoloured card using Power Poppy’s Chicadee in Barberry Digital Stamp. I painted it on Fabriano Artistico 140lbs Hotpress Watercolour paper with my Schmicke watercolours.

I really enjoyed the ease of painting this image, it created a card so easy with just the painting and popping it up onto a card base. Marcella’s art is so fantastic!

I ruffed up the edges of the watercolour paper and called it a card. I really am going to have to paint this one again.
