Welcome
This is the second card I taught at this months class, and to mix it up a bit I gave the class options in the way of image and background stamps, and we had some great cards made.
I used an old Rubbadubbadoo stamp and coloured it with Water Colour Crayons (omitting the leaves),and then spritzed it with water and stamped it. As it did not turn out quite how I wanted it, I took a wet brush and moved and added colour to the image, and grounded it with a wee bit of 'shadow'.
I then masked the image, inked the (old) Hero Arts gauze stamp with distress ink, spritzed it lightly and stamped over the image.
The final detail was to emboss the sentiment (a Montarga stamp) sponged the edge of the (hand cut) banner, and attached it, snagging some multi-coloured metallic thread under it.
This second card was made using the same methods and stamps, just a different coloured background.
This is a snap of the group concentrating on the negative colouring from this card.
We had a wonderful afternoon with lots of laughs.

Love the look of that stamp with the water color crayons. SO pretty and the gold in the sentiment just adds the extra. Very pretty. Looks like y'all are hard at work and having fun.

both are beautifully done. The colours on your second one are lovely
Beautiful cards Maxine! Amazing job masking, I actually thought it was one whole image at first! I love the piece of string around the sentiment, great detail! hugs :)
Maxine, I can't tell you how fabulous these are! The soft beauty of them both is so serene and charming - what a contrast with the mesh and the watercolor fruits. LOVE LOVE these!!!! Hugs, m'dear!
