Hi there,
Wow, this week's Make it Monday challenge was lots of fun. I was very skeptical when I watched Ashley's video, thinking there's no way this won't look like a hot mess if I try it! It did start out that way. I thought her watercolored images were so pretty, it was almost a shame to doodle on them, and I figured I may get stuck at that point. Mine weren't that pretty! So I had nothing to lose by forging ahead. I still didn't like the look when I first outlined the images, but as I added more details, they gained more dimension and started to come together. I think I'll have to try this again with some other stamps. I don't have a lot of solid images, but was thinking I could use the back of some of my floral images.
It's always difficult to capture with a camera, but I added some glitter to the butterfly wings to jazz them up a bit.
This is the sample card that Ashley made to demonstrate this awesome technique. You have until Monday morning to post a project if you want to dive in and give it a try!
Thanks for stopping by,
T
Your butterflies turned out beautiful! I love the border you put around your card too. That doodling was scary, but fun!
ReplyDeleteYour doodling is wonderful, Tanisha. I was very skeptical also, still am as I'm not a doodling type it seems, but your whimsical butterflies are just lovely and suit the sentiment beautifully.
ReplyDeleteSorry Tanis, your name was auto corrected on my Note before I noticed...Di
ReplyDeleteNo problem! Sometimes it's fun to do things that are not your style, and recharge your creativity.
DeleteThe butterflies are great, amazing doodling! Love the bright colors you used.
