A couple of years ago I took a water coloring class and I failed with a BIG FAT F! The type of water color the instructor used was masking and precise strokes. I was looking for something more whimsical and less defined. I did learn something regarding shading and determining which direction the light was coming from. I do like experimenting with my Copics. I think I will try some online classes if I ever again have the desire to use my water colors.
This is Power Poppy's digital stamp Sunshine of My Life. I wanted to enter this in their challenge this month which calls for no-line coloring, I printed in a +30 brightness, but you can still see the lines. It does however fit Double "D's" Challenge of "Lavender and Lace". This is my second entry for their challenge. I am number 13 on fist entry, and another number may do better for that random draw.
Stamps: Power Poppy, Spellbinder (Sentiment)
Dies: Memory Box Stitched Squares - Spellbinder Labels 41 & A2 Bracket Borders One
Paper: Create and Craft Double Sided Gingham Pastel & 120# white card stock.
And just for fun:

OH MY GOSH.... That minion is hilarious! Totally made me laugh in my coffee this morning girlie. Second OH MY GOSH.... is this card. Are you kidding me??? Fantastic with the shading. Love love what you did with these sunflowers. The die cuts, layers and the gingham are all perfect accents. GORGEOUS!!!!!
My fingers are nearly speechless! Give me a moment here... okay, better... First of all, your Copic coloring looks like watercoloring. Could have fooled me. Stunning! When you can do this, who needs watercoloring? This is such a beautiful digi, and totally amazing with the purple gingham and pretty die cuts. Love how you placed the sentiment and overlaid the curved border. An incredible sight to see in our Lavender and Lace challenge. WOW!
How did I miss this beauty? Awesome coloring!! And my favorite paper! I'm in love with this! One of your best for sure!
Fabulous composition and my jaw dripped when I saw your coloring. Thanks for joining us at Double D Challenge Blog. We hope to see more or your creations.
