WPlus9 Flora and Fauna 3

Hey friends! Long time to type/talk! We are back for a new year and I have 363 days to figure out what I wanna do with this blog and youtube. I really miss making cards so lets kick things off there!

Today I pulled out Wplus9’s Flora and Fauna 3 and made a card! And yes I filmed it for my youtube channel!

I have been doing so much with my watercolours last year that you didn’t get to see, I decided to grab something different do this one all in coloured pencils! I am going to be honest this was not a fast process. This card took me over 3 hours. Because I had 3 hours of footage to edit down for todays video!

I really love all the small details when it comes to one layer cards, shadows under the focal peice, the shading to make it look slightly sunken boarder. This one was just a blast! I love the little gouache addition to help the sentiment pop and brighten up the centers of the flowers!

You can watch the entire process below!

Thank you all for stopping by, even though I have not been around! I appreciate you all so much!

The Greeting Farm – September Preview Day 1

Hey everyone! We are back for another set of previews for The Greeting Farm! This month’s release is amazing!!

I pulled out all my coloured pencils for this one. One thing I love about this medium is how friendly they all play together. Prismacolor, Polychromos and Luminance. I can mix them in endless ways to create tons of looks!

I think added a little bit of detail with a white Posca marker and added some stitching to finish it off. The sentiment comes from the Holiday Wishes stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by,

Farm Fresh Challenge

Hey all! It is November 1st, which means time for a new Farm Fresh Challenge over at The Greeting Farm this month we are doing one layer cards, a personal favorite of mine!

The Greeting Farm - Lift off go time - Jessie Banks.jpg

I did tons of masking for this card, combining Mega-Mini Go Time, and Mega Mini Lift Off. I created the background with my Distress Oxides on Kraft Cardstock, then coloured up all the rest using my coloured pencils, I mix Prisma Colour and Polychromos Pencils.

I have been making tons of Happy Birthday cards lately, I was running low! I hope you found some inspiration in this and you play along

Dolly Diver

Hey everyone! It is Wednesday and that means its time for another Wonderful Wednesday challenge! Bring out your Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps, and make whatever your heart desires, no theme, doesn’t even have to be a card!

Kraftin Kimmie Stamps - Dollie Diver - Jessie Banks.jpg

I coloured up Dolly Diver, with my Faber-Castell Polychromos, and Prismacolor coloured pencils. I did this hanging out outside on my deck before the weather started to cool off, so I do not have a list of colours that I used. I have been all over these super CAS cards lately and this one is no exception. I created an angled block of colour along the top of the panel for my sentiment to sit along.

Hope you found some inspiration here to play along!

My Favorite Things – Hog Heaven

Hey everyone! Today I have a super CAS card featuring My Favorite Things – Hog Heaven. I have made this card to enter into the Clean and Simple Genius challenge for the 2017 Card Design Superstar Challenge.

MFT Stamps - Happy Hogs - Jessie Banks.jpg

I coloured these cuties up with my copic markers, and then enhanced the shading with my coloured pencils after. I really love all the white space and the transparency of the balloons. The more times I try the no lines colouring the more I am starting to feel comfortable and not completely terrified when I start one.
