Lovely Day Paper Pumpkin Stamp Set

I made this card a while ago using a paper pumpkin stamp set called Lovely Day and I used the colored pencils black magic technique. You can use any floral stamp to make this. I just might try it on our Good Morning Magnolia stamps if I get a chance. 
I've heard of this technique over the years, but had never given it a try so I thought "Why not?" and I really like how it turned out!
I started by coloring everything white, then as I added color I started with the lightest to darkest. I didn't color the whole petal or leaves when I added in the darker colors, Just the white and lightest color.
 
Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today's card was inspired by Journey Sketches #17.  Along with the sketch was an additional challenge to make a shaped card.  I went with any easy shape...a square.

Lovely Day ~ Fun Stampers Journey Mother's Day Cards

I know I'm a little late posting today's cards, but I wanted to make sure they were delivered before I posted them.  I made these cards for my mother and mother-in-law for Mother's Day...of course!  They each hold a special place in my heart and since I'm not very good with words I like to let my cards show everyone that I care.  Even though my favorite color is green, when it comes to making cards I think that they are overwhelmingly blue of one shade or another.  And once again I used my favorite ATS Stamp Lovely Day. :)


 As you can see one card is a lighter blue than the other.  I colored the flowers with different blue Journey Burst Pencils. I believe I used  pencils 26, 30 and 32 for the lighter card with Beach Ball Satin Ribbon and I know I used pencils 30, 32 and 33 on the darker card with Catalina Splash Satin Ribbon. I hope you find them as lovely as I do. :)

Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Can you tell that one of my favorite stamps lately is the ATS Lovely Day? :)   
I created this card for a challenge as a part of Fun Stampers Journey.  It was inspired by the circle card I created a week or so ago.  This card is really supposed to be all black and white, but I couldn't resist adding a pop of color and did that using three different pink color burst pencils.


As you can see I cut out the smallest flower and popped it.  Adding dimension just makes it a little more fun. :)


Whip Cream
Sweet Berry
Black Licorice

Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today's card is inspired by Try Stampin' or Not on Tuesday's sketch challenge #319.  What a fun challenge...a circle or oval card.  It's been a long time since I've made one of those!  I chose to use my favorite stamp set Lovely Day as the focus of my circular card.


I used my Journey Color Burst pencils to color my flowers and used baby oil to blend the different pinks together.  I also cut out the smallest flower and popped it up on my card.  It's kind of hard to see that though. :(
Make sure you check out all the other great cards the designers created HERE.  Lots of neat cards!  If you get a chance we'd love to see what you've created too.

It was hard to get a good pic from this angle because my circle kept moving on me! lol

Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today's card is inspired by Try Stampin' or Not on Tuesday's sketch challenge #296.  This week we also have an optional theme of Thanksgiving, but I opted for something different because of my open house later this week.


What a fun sketch to work with!  Make sure you check out all the other fun creations at Try Stampin' on Tuesday HERE.  We'd love to see what you create if you get a chance to play along. :)


I used Pan Pastels to color in the flower petals because it's so quick and easy to do. :)


Some dry embossing for the background and a few pearls to finish off my card. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Have a Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

NOW...onto the cards I've created for today's post! :)

Yesterday I posted a card using the same stamp as on today's card.  I colored yesterday's card using the Journey Splash Water Colors Pencils.  Today's cards are colored using Pan Pastels.  Wow, do I love these!!  They are so easy to use, you can mix and match your colors and get it into some pretty detailed areas.  I'm sure there's more great things I can do with them...I just haven't learned or discovered them yet! 


 I used the Rich Sorbet Pan Pastels for both of my cards.  
Not sure if you can see it, but I spritzed the flower with Shimmer Gold Color Splash.  



On this "red" card I colored in the flower using yellow first, then going back over it with magenta (bright pink).  When I put the yellow on I started at the tip of the petal and worked my way toward the center of the flower, but didn't go all the way in because I wanted a bit of a lighter area.  Then when I added the pink I didn't go in as far as I did with the yellow because you know it...I wanted some of the yellow to still show. 


 I originally wanted the flower to be pink, but mixing with the yellow just didn't leave it that way.  I really like how it turned out, so I'm not complaining at all! 



Finally one of my pictures shows the shimmer on my cards! lol  I used both the silver and gold color splash on this one, but the silver is the one that stands out and that's what I wanted.


I only used one color on the petals for this card.  However I did use the turquoise blue from the Party Pop Pan Pastels to go around the flower and stems.  The touch of blue added just a little "more" to the card if you know what I mean.


Which card is your favorite?  I'd love for you to let me know...plus it tells me someone is reading my posts! LOL


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Lovely Day ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

I love this stamp called Lovely Day.  It's not too big or too small and fits perfectly on a card front.  When I made this card I hadn't been doing a lot of watercolor at all and missed it so I pulled out this stamp and tried to make the color of the flower similar to Rich Coral just not as dark.  I love the color Rich Coral...it's perfect for a poppy and when I get the stamp set Wonderful Day I'm sure I'll be using it again even though we're knee deep into fall right now.


I stamped the flowers using Black Licorice, made sure it was dry then got busy coloring the petals in.  I really don't remember what pencils I used.  I just pulled them out, rubbed the color off from the tips using a blender brush with water in it onto one of my blocks and did it with a few different colored pencils until I got the color I liked.  Not sure if you can tell in the pic, but I colored all around the flowers in a pale blue too just to add a little dimension.


The card seemed a little plain so I spritzed it with a bit of Shimmmer Gold Color Splash.  I got it a little darker than planned, but that's the way it goes with color splashes sometimes. lol


Thanks for looking and have a great day!
