Burst of Colors

Today I want to show you a card I made using 3 different Clearly Whimsy stamp sets and a matching Shapeology die set. I used the Clearly Whimsy Just a Note set which was released in January and the older Say What set. I also used the matching Say What Speech Bubbles Die Set , it is on sale at the moment here in the Whimsy Store. The sentiment and xoxo border was stamped using the Clearly Whimsy Everyday Mini Sentiments. I colored using my Kuretake Clean Color brush pens and the paper is from an Authentique paper pad called Lovely.  Thanks for stopping by hugs,

Hello All and Happy Sunday! I tried a new technique today, well new for me that is.....no line coloring using water colors. I only did the no line technique with Copics so far. At the moment I am pretty addicted with my Kuretake Clean Color Brush Pens :-) so I thought I would give this a try.    Frog Prince is this cute image called, illustrated by Sylvia Zet - Wee Stamps for Whimsy. In my opinion it is a bit more challenging to use the no-line technique with watercolors than with Copics. Because of the very light outline you have to be very careful while coloring and only use a damp, almost dry, brush to blend the colors. It's also pretty time consuming. But I have to say I like how it turned out. To better showcase the image I kept my embellies  to a minimum. Hugs,
