This all started because my sister wanted me to make a card using the flower for all seasons set so she could case me. I think I went a little over board! LOL I get started on my little scenes and there is just no stopping me!........details to follow.....
On w.w.cs, I stamped my sunflowers in the pot, the horsey, clouds and balloon. I drew the basket to make it look like a hot air balloon. Did all the coloring using Faber-Castell Pens, then cut it all out and set aside.
On another piece of cs, I stamped my Judith tree, coloring with w/c pencils and blending with water and a brush. Versa marked and clear eb it. Made myself a "hill" stencil so I don't have to throw it away but can be used over and over. Good thing, because I just love making these hills! I used fall colors for these today, and added bushes and grass here and there.
Sponged the sky with soft sky, and then lightly sponged some clouds with RR Stencil. Sponged all the edges and put this panel on a white card that I sponged and long doodled the edges.
Put my little scene together, popping up the sunflowers, horsey's head, and one of the clouds. Everything else was just glues on in place.
I made the sentiment on the computer, cut out with a McGill punch, sponged edges and poked two tiny holes so I could thread my wild wire through and attach my leaf gem that my wonderful sister gave to me. I curled the long ends of the wire to look like viney things.
I have such fun creating these little scenes. Hope you have fun viewing them!........TFL :0)
