Anita Jeram’s Summer Garden Release: Whimsical Watercolor

Hello Crafters! 

Welcome to the Colorado Craft Company & Anita Jeram Summer Garden Release!

You should gave arrived here from the wonderful Kelly Griglione If you’re just stopping by you’ll want to head back to the beginning at the Colorado Craft Company Blog so you don’t miss a stop along the way or a chance to win! 

Colorado Craft Company is generously giving away One stamp set to each winner from each of the stops on the hop. They will pick the winners and include them in an email as well as share them in a blog post.  Please sign up to be on their email list or be checking the Blog to see if you won. 

We are also giving away a COMPLETE BUNDLE to ONE winner who shops through the affiliate links of the designers to buy from us. They will get one entry per order. We will pick them and email them privately. You can shop through my link here! 

I used every stamp set in the release except for two! I know but they were all so cute I couldn’t resist creating a little “Garden Party.” I stamped and masked my characters onto a slimline watercolor card. 

I was going for a fun whimsical watercolor look and I think we got there. All the watercoloring was done with my Karin Brushmarker Pro markers. I love how easy they ae to use especially when scribbling them down to create new colors. Which I did a lot for this card since I only have two sets. 

Once everything was dry I added some white gel pen highlights and a little shimmer to my veggies. The sentiment, which is adorable and true, was heat embossed on black and then popped up over the scene. 

I’ll have a video up sharing the whole process a bit later today. 

Your next stop on the hop is my fabulous friend Michelle Lupton

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hero Arts My Monthly Hero March 2023 Blog Hop: No Fail Card Designs

Hello Crafters! 

Welcome to the  My Monthly Hero Kit March 2023 Blog Hop! You should have arrived from the fantastic Jessica Frost-Ballas but if you’re just popping in you’ll want to head over to the Hero Arts Blog

 so you don’t miss any of the inspiration along the hop or the giveaway!

Hero Arts is generously giving away a $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, March 12th at 11:59pm Pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog.

I am working with the classic kit for my cards today.

You may have seen the Squeeze the Day yesterday during the Countdown. But since I used the same products I decided to include them both in the video. 

Both Cards include ink blending and heat embossing as well as copic coloring. Because who doesn’t want to color these gorgeous fruits! 

You can check out the creating of both cards in the video below. 

I also used the new Farmer’s Market Icons with some ink blending and heat embossing but for an entirely different look. So Fun! 

The video will be up shortly. Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Your Next stop on the hop is the fabulous Lydia Fiedler.
