I have 4 cards to share, so there are lots of photos. Let's get right to it...
In alphabetical order ~ My first card is for this week's challenge at CASology for the Cue Card 'Mom':
The flower (from SSS) was colored with Peerless Watercolors, and the sentiment is from Clearly Besotted Stamps. I added a few PTI Rainstones, but they're hard to see on screen.
My 2nd card is for Muse and Virginia's View, who is having a Link-Up Party, and her theme is ‘Any type of friendship card'!
Tracey McNeely created this gorgeous card for us at Muse:
Here is Virginia’s inspiration card...isn’t it beautiful?!
I went with Tracey's design and color palette, and Virginia's theme of friendship. Everything on this card is from Papertrey Ink (Bloomers, Wet Paint, Turning a New Leaf).
OK, my next card is for this week's Make it Monday Challenge at Papertrey Ink for the technique 'Faux Brush Lettering':
I used my MISTI to stamp each shade of pink once, then with a watercolor brush, I painted the words. In person, there is a bit of variation in the colors of each letter.
My last card is for the current SSS Flickr Challenge for the theme 'Ink Blending'.
I used several shadow inks for the background, then added the hills and Village die cuts.
