So today when I saw the Sketch Challenge, I put them both together.<br /><br />Who would have thought to use Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery and Orchard Opluent together? I certainly would not. But it looks great. The stamp set I used is Merci, one of the Sale-A-Bration sets. My Stampin' Pastels and a Blender Pen did the trick for the color. The base of the card is Kraft. Versamark was used for the background stamps. Cute, cute! And I know just the person who is going to receive this card.<br /><br />Enjoy!Mariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08672095577198996463noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8942984523757292634.post-30092859216814717062008-02-20T06:10:00.000-08:002008-02-20T04:40:56.695-08:00Now is the time to become a Stampin Up!

Pastels. I hadn't used mine in a while so it was fun to get them back out. There are so many ways to use your Pastels besides just with the sponge applicator that comes with them.<br /><br /><div>Here I used Blender Pens to color the flowers. They came out so pretty. Embracing Life is the stamp set and Ginger Blossom is the Designer Paper. A little Groovy Guava Ribbon and you have a card that looks like a professional artist created it ;-)</div><div></div><br /><div>Have a great day!</div>Mariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08672095577198996463noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8942984523757292634.post-35313210253243293822008-02-19T05:30:00.000-08:002008-02-19T05:18:37.086-08:00Merci<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqCZdQ3vihAtCMemvisNjj639j5JG94E_DFzQUx2qIPSVcjgdilX4WAIHwvgtzR3TGKF4tfqy-_kx85ocmc5NUp49jIVOiFFLN95KNh9jLoVv5cGziSNksvoddYwVX5WYQCqIZsKLr1Jp6/s1600-h/100_2191+(2).JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5168677756978242962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqCZdQ3vihAtCMemvisNjj639j5JG94E_DFzQUx2qIPSVcjgdilX4WAIHwvgtzR3TGKF4tfqy-_kx85ocmc5NUp49jIVOiFFLN95KNh9jLoVv5cGziSNksvoddYwVX5WYQCqIZsKLr1Jp6/s320/100_2191+(2).JPG" border="0" /></a> My upline challenged us to make a project from Stampin' Up!'s list. I love this set from Sale-A-Bration. When I saw it the first time, I knew I would get it. It is fun and light and has a carefree look to it.<br /><br />This was my first attempt at watercoloring. How fun. I used my Aquapainter and went to work. I purposely when out of the lines to give it that carefree look. The colors for the card are Old Olive, Ruby Red, More Mustard, and Almost Amethyst. The ink is the same. I added some Hodgepodge Hardware and my card was complete.<br /><br />A few tips on watercoloring. Use Stazon Ink so the black doesn't run. Also, if you have watercolor paper use that. If you are using regular cardstock, which I did, just be careful how much water you are using. The paper can't hold that must moisture and you will end up with an icky looking image.<br /><br />If you must have this set like I did, just <a href="mailto:mdresnin@att.net">contact me </a>to place your order by March 17th!Mariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08672095577198996463noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8942984523757292634.post-82778458128309523762008-02-19T05:13:00.000-08:002008-02-18T20:22:24.264-08:00Wild About You - Weekend Sketch Challenge 35<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ0czWF1C2p-cienwE7p33i3bj26O50vC48KEpF9L808FoKuLmxxK8JYX17rX2z7NhAb9AhQjzIcZtKiUn0wou7T_wII6TzqFssfA8GEunL3ERXk9_wxtaJ-5aOTjupVKhiAyVKXXlsP65/s1600-h/100_2188+(2).JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5168540734636598658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ0czWF1C2p-cienwE7p33i3bj26O50vC48KEpF9L808FoKuLmxxK8JYX17rX2z7NhAb9AhQjzIcZtKiUn0wou7T_wII6TzqFssfA8GEunL3ERXk9_wxtaJ-5aOTjupVKhiAyVKXXlsP65/s320/100_2188+(2).JPG" border="0" /></a>When I saw this weekend's sketch challenge on <a href="http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/">Beate's blog</a>, I knew it would make the perfect card for my great-nephew's birthday in March.<br /><br /><div></div><div>The Wild About You stamp set makes a fun card for kids of all ages.
