Warm Wishes

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

There's still time to join in at CAS Mix Up. .


This month is Watercolouring.  

I've used one of Penny Blacks awesome poinsettia stamps and stamped with
Memento Toffee Crunch for a no line watercolor.

My coloring media was a combination of Gansai Tambi, Zigs and Caran d'ache
Supracolor Pencils.

There's a little dot of gold glitter glue in the center of the flower.

So pretty especially with the hint of color in the background. Where do you keep all of your supplies Bonnie. Every time I turn around it seem as if you are coloring with a different product! This is really a beautiful card!

Gorgeous poinsettia, Bonnie! I love your watercolored background as much as the flower. Using the paint, the markers, and the color pencils gives more depth and details, and makes the poinsettia look realistic. The gold glitter glue is a nice shiny finishing touch!

The water coloring is beautiful, and I am just adoring the no-line.... someday I'll get brave...

What struck me about this one, Bonnie is that you managed to keep the veins in the petals, not so easy to do. Beautifully colored and once again I love that soft wash in the background. I just can't get the hang of that.

Julia Aston said...

What a gorgeous poinsettia Bonnie - it looks so dimensional with your shading outside the flower! xx
