For today's project I pulled out my Prismacolor colored pencils and sort of went to town.

I had a baggie of preciously stamped flowers using In Bloom: Eva's Favorite Flowers already cut out using In Bloom: Eva's Favorite Flowers Cutaways. The funny thing was they were all stamped in a lavender color as they were stamped some time ago to test the coordinating dies. Anyway the moral of the story is that keeping die cut images can come in handy regardless of the color they are originally stamped in. I used the colored pencils and added color using pinks, blues and reds for a palette I know my mom will enjoy (shh, this card is for my mom's upcoming birthday).

For the background I stamped a piece of pale aqua patterned paper by Basic Grey (so sad they are gone, but I certainly have a big enough stash of their paper to comfort me) using Hero Arts's Confetti Bold Prints cling stamp in an aqua ink...oh it was so lovely to incorporate another stamp company's stamps with w&w stamps and I do have a love of Hero Arts background stamps among other things. I added a little detail to some of the circles using blue colored pencils. This is very simple way to add some interest and to customize a background.

In the right corner I stamped the leaves in navy from Framed with Evelin T Designs and then colored them in. I also stamped the frame from the same stamp set in navy again (I adore navy and it is the perfect neutral for this card) on white cardstock, die cut it out using the coordinating cutaways and colored that in as well along with stamping the sentiment from A Tree for All Seasons.

I then arranged the flowers around the leaves and added the frame using foam dimensional adhesive. Last I added some sparkly sequins because well it needed a little shimmer and shine.

  18. What a gorgeous & interesting card, Shay! Love the background--would never have thought to add any coloring! The flowers are amazing! I have lots of options in my stash, but I'm really not comfortable coloring. Need to practice with my Copics as I did have one image turn out pretty good awhile ago. For now, my favorite medium is Zigs wc markers since I can do "messy" coloring & call it artistic--haha!

  165. Very pretty card and coloring. Love the colors. My favorite color tools are copies. I have been using color pencils a little for certain areas of the images. This is new to me. For backgrounds I like Ranger inks and smoothing. Kuretake gansai paints are a favorite for background..

  166. I save my bits and pieces.... some colored, some not...., and usually find a use for them. Your card is beautiful and a perfect example of why we should do this. I love watercolors best, including pencils, water-based markers, crayons....you get the idea. Fun blog hop and thanks Kathy!
