The current Creative
Confetti Challenge at Power Poppy is named “Get Krafty.” I used one of their wonderful
digi sets named Cuppa Cupcakes and tutorial for coloring glass that was recently featured on Power Poppy. (You can
find the tutorial HERE.) I don’t use colored pencils very
often, so was fun to put them to use. The results aren’t perfect, but I think
it looks pretty good for a first try! (And I know that I’ll be making more of
these cards… and am also looking through my stamps and digis for other “glass”
items.) The inside sentiment is from the digi set and the little Happy Birthday tag is from a Lily of the Valley Digi set named
"Sentiment Tags."

When I saw
that the current challenge at Art Impressions is named “Coffee Cards” I
immediately knew what stamp I would use- Maude to the rescue! This lovable lady
in her fuzzy robe and bunny slippers has always been a favorite of mine. I
colored Maude with Spectrum
Noir markers and a Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen. The sentiments are computer-generated. (I’ve had the humorous version of the Serenity Prayer in my files
for a few decades… and it is a perfect match for the look on Maude’s face. I don’t
know its source and when I tried to find it via google, it was on dozens on
sites but I couldn’t find the “original.” So if anyone can provide that info,
please let me know!)

ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job of making that glass globe look like real glass. I haven't tried that technique of using colored pencils to achieve that result, but I really must give it a try. You've inspired me! Thanks so much for joining in on our latest challenge at Let's Craft and Create. Cheryl W, DT
