Next is a beautiful new set from Tami Mayberry, called Faithful Florals. You'll love the elegant silhouette flowers and touching sentiments & verses included in this set! I sponged a background, then stamped the silhouette images. Cardstock layers are Pure Luxury White, Black Onyx and Green Apple. I'll share the step by step photos for this card in a blog post next week.
Asela Hopkins created such a fun Halloween set called, Boo! As soon as I saw these cute images, I knew I wanted to make a Halloween treat bag! I sponged the background and colored the images with Copics. Cardstock colors are Vibrant Purple, White and Sweet Mango.
Here is a side view so you can see the little bag of candy hanging inside. I'll share the step by step photos and instructions for this project next week on my blog.

To make my farm card, I stamped the barn, then colored with Copics, starting with R89 for the deepest shadows.
Then I added R27. Usually I color in small circles, but since the boards on this image run vertically and some vertical streaking will just enhance the image, I colored mostly in an up and down motion.
Added R24.
I filled in with R05 and also over the parts I had previously colored, to warm up those reds a bit.
I added a bit of W3 to make it look a bit more weathered and also used W3 on the roof.
Then I added some lines and blobs with E57.
Did a little more shading and blending with W3 and E59.
On the grain silo (I think that is what it is called) I filled in entirely with N1, then added some shading with N3.
Added some deeper shading with N5.
For the trees, I started with YG25.
Added YG23.
Filled in with YG21.
On the trunk I used E59 for the shadows.
Then I filled in the trunk with E35 and used my blender pen to push in some highlights.
I also used Copics to color in the foreground a bit, starting with E37.
Added E35.
Added E53.
Added E51 and carried it around the entire image.
Then added E00.
Sponged with Memento Desert Sand.
Sponged with Memento Potter's Clay.
Sponged with Memento Rich Cocoa.
I added some piercing around the edges and layered with Pure Luxury Chocolate Brown and Ivory, and used a Lipstick Red cardbase.
On the inside of the card, I sponged some Memento Desert Sand and Rich Cocoa, then stamped the wheat grass with Desert Sand. The sentiment is stamped with Rich Cocoa.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a great day!
