I would like a chance to win! I do love the colors you use, and the gems just make the card!Thanks for the inspiration!
This week's drawing is for the stamps used below - Night Pier and Missing You. Leave a comment on this post for a chance to win! I'll post the winner's name at this same time next week (Wednesday midnight EST). To color my card, I dropped a few drops of Adirondack reinker in my paint palette and mixed in a drop of Shimmerz, as follows:
Ginger reinker with Spiced Cider Blingz
Denim reinker with Indigo Shimmerz
Stream reinker with Indigo Shimmerz
Butterscotch reinker with Sunflower Shimmerz
I used a waterbrush to paint the mixtures onto the image, and added some shading with watercolor pencils. Highlights were added with a white gel pen. One other detail - on the sand, while the paint was still wet, I pulled out my brown blow-pen and added a little spatter. The wet paint allowed the ink to bleed just a little - love that, though it's a little hard to see in the photo.
Dina, for me, you are the costliest blogger out there. I see something you make and I feel compelled to get the stamp. This is no exception!
ReplyDeleteWOW Dini! BRILLIANT artwork! Absolutely brilliant!
