This week at Inkspirational one of our DT chooses the challenge. And this week it is Nonni's turn. And she is challenging us all to create a project using markers or pencils.
Nonni is an expert in colouring using copics which you will see if you visit her inspiring blog korttikarkuri. I was going to use my water colour pencils but some how ended up embossing this gorgeous butterfly stamp from Uniko Studios. I coloured just some areas with a green sparkle jelly roll marker. I couldn't seem to get a good enough photo to show the sparkle but hope you get the idea.
I have used very minimal colouring but it is there! If you check out our blog here you will see some wonderful projects from our DT.
Our Guest Designer this week is the superbly talented Greta.
I will enter this into the 'Anything Goes' challenge at Uniko Studios and the Summer Theme/colours at the Butterfly Chaalenge-here in London with have lots of storms in Summer but they are followed by the most gorgeous rainbows!
Then get those markers and pencils out and join in the fun!
This is stunning, Sandie! The selective coloring looks very effective. Thank you for your nice words too! :) xxx

Perfect placement of the butterfly and quote - love the kraft background. Yes, just a little bit of colouring but that is all that is needed for this lovely card.
ReplyDeleteA super card, I love the white embossing on kraft card and and your minimal colouring with the green sparkle pen is very effective.

Your Butterfly looks stunning. I like the partial colouring of the wings and love the sentiment. Thankyou for flutering by my challenge. Hugs Mrs A. (Butterfly challenge).
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty, Sandie. I like the unique (off the card) placement of the butterfly. Your coloring is very strategic. Beautiful card!

Love this! Of course, it was a given considering how much I love CAS cards! Loving the white on kraft and the little bits of colour are great! :-)
ReplyDeleteNot that easy if you don't colour much with copics or so... But I love the bits you coloured; it looks perfect and beautifully CAS again! Think I have to get my pencils out of the drawer, since I don't have copics or so... Enjoy your sunday! xx
ReplyDeleteLove the white embossing against the kraft CS and the selected colouring really helps it to stand out. Thank you SO much for joining in on the Uniko Studio Challenge :) Hugs Bev x
