Welcome to a new Color Fusers Blog Hop! This month, our color combination includes Bubble Bath, Coastal Cabana, and Soft Sea Foam. It’s a really pretty combination including colors I don’t often use, so I was excited to give it a go.
My card features the Mixed Florals Bundle, a great online exclusive. I love coloring line art, so I was immediately drawn to it. In fact, I’m hosting an online class featuring this bundle this week. For more information, see my blog post HERE. There’s still time to sign up for Option 2, where you cut up your own supplies.
I love watercoloring, so I stamped the main image with Jet Black Stazon ink on Basic White and watercolored it with this month’s colors. The leaves are a combination of Soft Sea Foam and Coastal Cabana ink, which pair beautifully together!
For the tulips, I watercolored them twice with Bubble Bath ink to enhance the color. First, I watercolored them with lots of water so the ink would blend. After the paper dried, I used a dry brush technique to add darker highlights, painting from the base upwards.
For a little artistic flair, I also added Coastal Cabana splatter to the watercolored background and a little on my watercolored ieaves. Then, I added Bubble Bath splatter over the flowers. I also added some Bubble Bath colored sequins from the Sale-A-Bration — Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins.
Since the Mixed Florals Bundle does not include sentiments, I used one from the Greetings For All Ephemera Pack. I absolutely LOVE that pack, because it includes loads of black & white sentiments that I can easily add to just about any card.
