PTI Make It Monday #111: Watercoloring Embossed Images

For this Make It Monday entry, I embossed with gold EP.  I don't have any reinkers, so I watercolored with Derwent Inktense pencils.  The color of the flowers is violet (looks a little different in the photo).  Thanks for visiting!



Stamps: PTI Delightful Dahlia, Beautiful Butterflies (for sentiment)
Paper: GKD heavy base weight Ivory
Other:  Ranger gold EP, Derwent Inktense pencils

Make It Monday #110: Collage Elements

For this Make It Monday challenge, I stamped tone-on-tone.  I used stamps from PTI, GKD, and Inkadinkado (focal image).  For the focal image, I embossed the image with black EP, then watercolored the wings with watercolor pencils. But I didn't stop there.  I again embossed the colored image with clear EP.  Thanks for visiting!

Runway Inspired Challenge #33 - Red Valentino

For my entry into this  Runway Inspired Challenge, I used the SU Manhattan Florals embossing folder.  I cut out a few sections with a craft knife and replaced them with patterned paper.  I chose to pick up on the gold and black in the inspiration photo.  Enjoy!
