Flight of Fantasy

 Caught up on my Daily Marker 30 day coloring challenge! This pretty seahorse underwater scene is by Pink Ink Designs, one of my favorite makers. Colored it in Copics, wink of stella, glimmer sprays, white gel pen. Little sentiment strip is by Simon Says Stamp, Card stocks and background Shells embossing folder are by Stampin' Up!

Sparkly Mermaid

 This is super sparkly in real life. The scales paper is by American Crafts, the mermaid is Penny Black, the pool stencil is by My Favorite Things. For the stencil challenge and the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes to feature some MFT.

Black Magic

 I love the black magic technique and often forget to use it more. This is a Stampin' Up! background on Basic Black with Prismacolor pencils.

Almost Fall, Y'All

 Catching up with the Daily Marker 30 day coloring challenge, somehow I missed Day 18 so here it is. I am not ready to let go of summer just yet, the temps are finally becoming bearable after a few big heat waves.

Simon Says Stamp pumpkin, sentiment, sprig, and paper with small leaves from Inkadinkado.

Flowery Thanks

 Simon Says Stamp April 2021 card kit Friendly Flowers.

Shimmery Hugs

 A shimmery background with Nuvo sprays, embossed with folder from Simon Says Stamp's Garden Greetings kit.

Garden Greetings

Two coloring supplies that I hardly ever use but wanted to expand my coloring options for The Daily Marker 30 day coloring challenge. Not sure I have the gist of it or if there is supposed to be a strict format to follow so I'm going with trying new things! For this I used Tim Holtz distress crayons which are easy for large background areas. Just scribble on the crayon and hit it with a water brush. I added color details to the flowers and leaves with Arteza brush markers. 

Also for the SSS Monday challenge to heat emboss. This set and embossing folder are from the recent Garden Greetings card kit.  

 

Kindness Matters

 Another for the Simon Says Stamp heat embossing challenge, using their 2017 Kind Flowers card kit, embossed in white.

Always Be Kind

 Working on some Monday challenges and my coloring skills. Day 9 of The Daily Marker 30 Day coloring challenge, I used Copic markers and the sentiment was sone in Spectrum Noir Sparkle brush. This challenge is a great way for me to try a new item that I have in my stock that hasn't been used lately or at all.

Also this is for the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge to heat emboss. I used Ranger Liquid Platinum powder for the die cut sentiment. This is the November 2017 card kit from SSS and one of my favorites. Embellishments are by Memory Box.

Under The Sea

                                                     

For Day 7 of the Daily Marker 30 day coloring challenge, Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge for Summertime "Blues", and for the Dare To Get Dirty challenge over at Splitcoast this weekend.

I used Pink Ink Designs seahorse image colored in watercolor pencils, some distress oxide inks and various gel pens.

Splatters

Simon Says Stamp birthday challenge using Martha Stewart butterfly stamps, Stampin' Up! sentiment, Copic markers and various re-inkers for splatter pattern. Embellishments are Fairy Jewels by Memory Box.

 

Happy Frogs

I just can't get enough of these frogs in the new August card kit from Simon Says Stamp. It came with this adorable stencil that has waves, clouds, and lily pads. Super cute! 

 

Paper Bag Poppies

 Colored Penny Black poppies on a paper shopping bag with Prismacolor pencils. Birthday sentiment is by Stampin' Up!

Blue Poppies

 Simon Says Stamp Poppies background was embossed in white and colored with Blueberry botanical stain by Cosmic Shimmer and Prize Ribbon distress oxide along with some olive and summer sun re-inkers. Sprayed whole piece with glitter dust.
