STAMPlorations Monthly Challenge #22 - August

Hello and welcome! It's time for STAMPlorations Monthly Challenge #22.

This month our challenge theme is Stamps & Watercolor or sketch challenge.

My DT card is based on the theme- Stamps & Watercolor!

My DT card showcased Blooming Buds. 

I started by creating my textured background using black ink. 

After the paper dried, I applied some salty ocean distress ink on the acrylic block, added some water, and stamped that acrylic block on the watercolor paper. 

 I also painted the ripple with purple watercolor.

Next, I embossed the flower with gold embossing power, and colored it with Zig real brush pens. 

To finish off, I embellished some sequins on my card.

Hope you play along with us!

Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #156

Hi everyone, Welcome to another Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge, 

This week our theme is Anything Goes!!!

The winner will get $12 gift certificate from our gorgeous sponsor - Sami Stamps!

Here is my DT card using sponsor's image Bird Beauty.

For this card, I started by creating my textured background using black ink. 

After the paper dried, I printed the image from Sami Stamps, and colored her hair with deep blue and purple watercolor. I also added some pattern by using stencil. 

Then, I added some sparkle on those birds and the feather.

 

I wanted to keep the girl's face clean to emphasize her beauty and the gorgeous black pattern around her, so I printed the face on another white paper, fussy cut, and glued it on the card.

Thank you for stopping by.

Have a nice day.
