Perfect Poppies

Hey all! I am here today with a fun new post featuring Power Poppy and some watercolor paints that I never reach for. It is fun to use the colours that you never reach for, it also stretches your ability and allows you to learn more.


I loved painting this sweet little Poppy up in these colours. I have a little process video to share with you all if you would like to paint along with me!

Bouquet of Thanks

Hey everyone! Today I have a card I shared on Instagram during the 30 day coloring challenge. But now I have edited the video and am going to share it here with you all on my blog.

Simon Says Stamp - Bouquet of thanks - Jessie Banks 3

I pulled out Simon Says Stamp Bouquet of Thanks for this fun little card. I really love how the white heat embossing makes the flowers pop in a softer way the the black stamped lines. All links to supplies will be at the bottom of this post.

I have a complete process video of this one for you!

Colour Focus – Sap Green

Hey all! This weeks colour focus is on one of my most reached for colours, not for the bright vivid lively colours it makes but for the earthy side of it for leaves and grounding and all that stuff! I truly do love Sap Green.

This has been a really good learning curve for me what all these colours can make and create. I am going to have to hang on to all my mixing sheets to look back on!
