This week – now that I have weaned myself a little off the total focus on the Flower and Field DSP, I’m showcasing the adorable Darling Donkeys set.
This is a very simple card to make and a great introduction to watercoloring. The donkey was stamped in Smoky Slate and then the Basic Grey watercolor pencil was used to lightly cover the body, and to emphasize all lines. The blender pen removed the pencil lines and moved a little of the color around. The piece of Very Vanilla was trimmed until it “looked right” and then a Magenta Madness mat was added. To complete the card all that was needed was the sentiment, also from Darling Donkeys, stamped in Magenta Madness. It was cut out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies and popped up with dimensionals.
I’m wondering if I should challenge myself to not use these framelits for a week!
