Facebook Live Friday – Harvest Meadow

Hi and welcome today to my Blog.

This week I did a bit of water colouring using the Harvest Meadow from the July- December Mini Catalogue. I love doing water colouring as I find it very relaxing.

I used a lot of colours in flowers & Stems to achieve depth in colour and texture.

I am sorry that in my video where I was putting the card together the camera was slipping in the holder so some of it is off screen but I think you can still get the idea of what I was doing…that’s a live for you anything can happen.

Facebook Live Friday – Forever Blossoms

Hi and welcome today to my Blog.

Friday’s Facebook live I delved into my stamps and pulled out an old favorite Forever Blossoms and Cherry Blossoms Dies. We tend to play with them when we first get them but then something new comes along and they get forgotten.

Looking at the Cherry Blossoms Dies I relised that I had never used all the blossom dies. I had fun cutting and colouring each of the blossoms, petal edges brushed with Blushing Bride and a touch of green from the Soft Pastels in the flower centers. The stamens cut from Mango Melody and sponged with Cajun Craze.
