Watercoloured Greetings

Hello again !
This is my second post for the day. To check out the previous post, please click HERE.

I'm kind of hooked to watercolouring these days. I'm watching a lot of videos on YouTube of various watercolouring artists working on their process and learning along the way. It's so much fun and inspiring too ! I'm still on the intermediate levels as of now and I am truly enjoying exploring this medium and making some cards along the way.

Here are some of the cards I made in the past few days by watercolouring. Hope you like my attempts and  please feel free to drop in any suggestions, tips or any feedback on my work. I'm still new so it would be helpful :)

 

 

 

Here are the links to the video tutorials that I got inspired from -

Thank you for visiting me today. Will be coming up with more watercoloured cards soon. 

Watercoloured Heart Card

This is the second card I shared on CraftAdda blog as my Guest Designer post this month. To view my first card, please click HERE.

I started by lightly drawing a heart shape along the edge of a 4 by 5 inches Brustro water colour paper, using a pencil. Then I added a water colour wash using Gansai Tambi  in different shades of pink and some red, trying to confine the colours within the pencil drawing. After letting it dry, I stamped the sentiment ‘LOVE’ from ‘Love is in the Air’ set using Versamark Ink. I heat embossed it using silver embossing powder, and stamped ‘always’ in versafine onyx black ink.  I mounted this panel over a standard sized card base and finished off using some sequins and a Baker’s twine.

Linking the card to the following challenges :-

1. Happy Little Stampers- February Water Colour Challenge(Anything goes-- I've skipped the optional twist)

2. Time Out Challenge- Inspired By Words 


3. Inkspirational Challenge :- Heart Photo Inkspiration



4. CAS-ual Fridays:CFC 167 -- Colour Challenge-- Red, Pink and white

Thanks for visiting ! 

Watercoloured Sunflower

I'm back with my guest designer post for CraftAdda this month. And Valentine’s Day being just around the corner, I thought of sharing a few love –themed card ideas using a couple of stamp sets by CrafTangles  - one is ‘Love is in the Air’ and another one is ‘Always Yours’.


Both of these stamp sets are sentiment-based, so I simply chose a sentiment and co-odinated them with some free-hand watercoloured images, as shown in the card below:-

Tried some free hand water colouring for the first time. Well, technically this is the second attempt , the first one was a failed attempt at trying to make my sunflower look close to being one ! But it took me a while to paint it and I'm satisfied with this.  I used Gansai Tambi  water colours here. The sentiment ‘you are my sunshine ‘ from ‘Always Yours’ set  goes perfectly well with this image.

I'll be sharing the other two cards in upcoming blog posts. :)

Take care and keep creating !
