Hey everyone! Today I have a soft and pretty card to share with you all. I have been using my Schminke watercolours now for a few months and absolutely LOVE them! I will have a youtube video coming up on them very shortly. But when I first got them this, Magnolia Tilda Hear No Evil, was one of the very first images I painted with them and it finally got on a card!

I do not have a list of the colours I used as I mix all of my watercolours and do not use them straight from the pan very often unfortunately, but, like I said above I will have a youtube video coming up and that will let you see more detail about how I choose what colours to mix together.

I used up a bunch of scraps of paper, a couple flowers from my stash some ribbon and lace and a doily, a little bit of cheese cloth tucked in here and there finished it off.

P.S. Canada Post may be going on strike on July 2nd and the Etsy store has been put into vacation mode while that all gets figured out, this card will be listed there as soon as they have it all sorted out.

Strawberry Fields

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!

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!

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.
