Droppin' You a Line

Hi everyone!

I hope you are having weather as gorgeous as we are here :) It's so nice to get out in the sunshine. The boys have a baseball tournament this weekend so we're spending most of it outdoors.

I've got a card for you today using There She Goes' set Happy Day.


I noticed that I used blue and orange tones with this set as I did with the last card I made using this set. Mental note-try another combo next time :)

And did you notice? Yes, it's true. I watercoloured it. Me. Colouring. Actually, this image was quite pleasant to colour! I used an Aquapainter on watercolour paper. I honestly think that watercolour paper is the key for me. I always get better results when I attempt to colour. Not perfect mind you! But definitely better. I also used watercolour paper for the base of the card. I like the texture it has for a bit of interest.

The other paper is SU!'s Parisian Breeze Specialty paper. It's textured too, and oh so pretty! The image is stamped in brown Stazon and coloured using Kiwi Kiss, Old Olive, Baja Breeze, Close to Cocoa and Pumpkin Pie ink picked up from the lid. The image is matted on Pumpkin Pie and then raised on dimensionals. A ribbon from Taylored Expressions finishes it off. This is my new favourite ribbon, for sure.

So, new releases are happening at There She Goes this weekend. Check out Jessica's blog here for all the details. I don't have any new stuff to show you today, but I hope to later in the week.

I hope you will be able to make it to the chat tonight! We're off to a BBQ this afternoon but I am planning to stop by the chat after that.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Thanks again for stopping by :)
