Hey everyone! Peep this...our very first sketch! I'm in love! I'm excited for more!
I made two cards for this hop. Both are a reflection of these unprecedented times. I hope they bring you comfort. Oh, and check this out. I am having a giveaway. I haven't had a giveaway since November 2019, I believe, so this is very exciting for me and you! Ha! Ha!
Here is my first card:
I love this bull! So fun to color, too! Both the bull and the sentiment are from the Take No Bull set. I love the sentiments in this set. When I was creating this card, I had the radio on like I usually do and in several commercials, people were saying "Stay Strong," in light of the times, so I rolled with it. I used colored pencils with Gamsol on the bull and the clouds. I used a spray ink with water to create the background. I added several enamel dots and two chipboard arrows to finish it off. Don't be surprised if you see more of my cards using this bull on the Unity Show & Tell page. In fact if you have this set, post your creations there. I would love to see them.
Here is my second card:
I was inspired by Shannon Edwards in the creation of this card. You should check out her card using this same sunflower on the Unity site. I love sunflowers and really enjoyed coloring this beauty up with colored pencils and Gamsol. I also used a brown dimensional paint for the center. I love my splatters and dots, but I wish I had not added the gold micro beads. What do you think? Too much? I think it's too much so I will probably create an identical card minus the beads. LOL. The sunflower comes from shimmer & shine and THIS scripture comes from My Heart Trusts. This scripture is spot on right now. I added the paint splatters first using Prima metallic paints and white gesso. I didn't have any white paint, so I said, "gesso will work." I then stamped the sunflower. It picked up some of the splatters. I then added the sentiment and fabric dots.
And make sure you comment on all of our blogs to be eligible to win some Unity goodness. Here is my blog candy, a stamp set and some random stamps from grab bags. I will announce the winner next month.
Are you still with me? Here is the hop list:
