A safe harbor......

Hi there,

Gina here today to share a card I made using the Couple in Love image from Whimsy Stamps.  Such a fun card to watercolor, the perfect scenery to blend colors together.

I watercolored this image using both distress markers and Derwent inktense pencils.  I tried using a new technique to not get the colors to bleed, by heat setting each area once I completed it.  Using the inktense pencils, once they dry they are permanent, which makes it a lot easier to not allow bleeding between the different areas.

Hope you like this card, please go take a look over at Whimsy Stamps, for this and other great images.

Thanks for taking a peek.

Have a great day. =)

Sending smiles......

Gina here today to share a little gift bag I made using one the new images over at Whimsy Stamps called Maggie.

I watercolored this image on some 90lb watercolor paper using distress inks and a water brush.  After I finished I added a little bit of sparkle with a Wink of Stella Clear glitter brush pen.

I also added a few sequins and then a sentiment from Lawn Fawn.

Such a fun project and something a little different to give with a sweet gift.

Hope you enjoyed checking this out, please check out this image, Maggie that was released in August and lots of other great images and stamps at Whimsy Stamps.

Happy Friday and have a craft weekend.
