Today's card was easy because the stamped parts were already colored and die cut. I used WPlus9 Hello & Thanks and finished off the last of the images I colored while we were camping in July. I have another card I'll share later, too. Today it's very clean and simple with just a blush of blue on the card base and the die cut images arranged over that.
The blue ink on the card base is SU's Bashful Blue, applied with one of my Beauty Kate make up blending brushes. The card base is Neenah 110 lb Classic Crest so it's very sturdy without layering.
Easy stamps to color and a card that went together very quickly. I think I like that idea! See you again soon!
Such a beautiful card Leslie ! I LOVE it! You colored it beautifully... and that little yellow bird!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your card style! And to be able to mail with one stamp is a must these days. Your coloring is perfect and I agree with Hannelie....that little yellow bird!
ReplyDeleteIt is just gorgeous, love the softness of your inking in the background and your coloring of it all is just beautiful! That is great you were able to get some things colored while you were gone and they were ready to be put into cards :)
ReplyDeleteLove the beautifully coloured image and delicate coloured background-beautiful

What a pretty, sweet card, Leslie! And yes, my entire life is "rolled" according to my abilities at the moment. If I have energy combined with a brain, I do as much as I can to make good use of it, and then when the energy wanes, I revert to "force mode" - so I definitely identify with you about "going with it" when "it" happens LOL Ilike the soft blue background against your popped up layers, and the sweet bird nestled in coordinating flowers! hugs, de
ReplyDeleteI love your QCAS card design, Leslie. Your stamped and die cut images are so beautifully colored and colorful:-) TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy

ReplyDeleteI need this disease! lol I love your card today! Do I say that everytime?! lol yep! lol The new stuff keeps coming but oh, I love it so! There's more than one disease with this papercrafting thing isn't there. lol
ReplyDeleteIt is so much fun to hear the joy you are having in your craft room. This card is simplel but elegant and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card with all the pretty pretty colors, and what a great stamp this is...the bird is so cute and I love the yellow and reds, reminds of the Mintay papers!!
ReplyDeleteLeslie, I adore your clean and simple version with those sweet and beautifully colored images!! I seem to be on the go a lot, too...but I never manage to bring my stamping stuff. You inspire me always and I love coming by for a visit. Do you have specific storage for your copic markers on the go? So nice to see you back the last few days...I have truly missed you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. And I know what you mean by on a roll - just keep going. BIG GRIN Have a great day
ReplyDeleteI think this card is so pretty! That SU blue is one of my favorite colors! I just got some blending brushes, so I'm anxious to try them out. It's nice to have some C&S TY cards ready to go and these cute little flowers with the little bird are just the ticket!! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteOoohh! I love this. Beautifully coloured Leslie, and love the little bird popping up in the middle. The background shading with the SU bashful blue is just the perfect shade of blue for your image. This card just makes me swoon! An overall CAS card yet classy! So glad to see you are on a roll, keep them coming. I've got some new stuff ordered should be here next week sometime, not that I really need new stuff, as I have plenty here waiting to be used. It's hard to resist sometimes! LOL. Have a wonderful day, hugs.
