It’s that time of the month again!!! C.C. Designs Previews are coming your way, and as always this release will not disappoint!

cc-cinnamon-paints

I have been on a crazy watercolour kick lately and I thought since the darling Cinnamon was painting a rainbow I should paint her.

I used my Schmincke, Daniel Smith and Golden Qor watercolours to paint up Cinnamon Paints, I added a sentiment from the Lucky Rainbow Sentiment set, added the pannel to a card base and there she is!

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!

ppdec1602d_orchiddreams

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

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.

Strawberry Fields

LDRS Strawberry Fields 1.jpg

Hey everyone! Today I have a fun card using Candibean Strawberry Fields, and the Just Because Sentiment set.

I stamped the sentiment onto a kraft cut of the Gilded Oval Labels, with versamark in and embossed it with white embossing powder. I tucked it a couple cuts of the Gilded Doily Die, seriously if you don’t own this die you should probably go get it right now as it has quickly become one of my current favourites!

LDRS Strawberry Fields 2

I painted my image up with my Schmicke watercolours on Arches 140lbs Coldpress watercolour paper, I love the coldpress paper with the strawberries and the mice the little texture does so much for this image without me having to do any of the work!

Hey everyone! We are still going strong and having a great time playing with Power Poppy images over at Passionate Paper Creations and Friends this weekend. If you aren’t over there with us yet you really should be!

PP Hellebores wc 2

To colour the Hellebores image up I used my Schmincke Horadam Aquarel watercolour set. I will list the colours I used, but just remember these colours were mixed together and used with different amounts of water to achieve the look I was after not just straight colour out of the pans.

Colours used – Lemon Yellow, Chrome Yellow Deep, Magenta, Permanent Carmine, Delft Blue, Idigo, Prussian Green, May Green, Colbalt Green Dark, Olive Green Yellow, and Yellow Ocher.
