Hello, Friend

Hello, MarkerPOP friends! My style is Clean and Simple. I love the simplicity of the final project. I sometimes feel guilty with how quick it takes to make a card. So I have started to added some additional touches that I believe push the card to the next level! One of my new favorites is the NUVO Drops!

Today, I am using the Altenew's Be Strong stamp set and Chameleon markers:

I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the images onto the white cardstock. I used a couple orange and yellows Chameleon markers to color in the individual bulbs. To make the bulbs look more life-like, I covered each one with Clear Nuvo Drops. When the drops dry, they give off a glassy look to the bulbs. A sentiment is stamped at the bottom of the card.

I used the following markers on today's card:

Altenew Florals + ZIGs

Hello, MarkerPOP friends! Hope you all are having a wonderful Thursday! Can you believe that today is the day of June? This year is going by fast! Now that the kids are out of school and their activities slow down, I am looking forward to the additional crafting time!

One of my new favorite stamp company is Altenew. I am falling in love with all their floral stamp sets! If you are not familiar with this company, check out their selection in the MarkerPOP store!

Today, I am working with the beautiful Altenew's Bamboo Rose stamp set and ZIG Clean Color Markers:

I really enjoy using watercolors on my project. Especially because you can do the 'care-free' coloring style for a messy, but gorgeous outcome! I stamped the images with black ink. The images are then colored in with ZIG markers. The sentiment is stamped in black ink as well. To finish the card I decided to round two of the corners and attached clear droplets to the card.

Please stop by the MarkerPOP blog for the list of supplies used on today's card!

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have an awesome day!

Watercolor Background with Altenew

Hello, MarkerPOP friends! I love to work with bright colors, but I am switching it up today! Throughout the month, the design team is showcasing different watercolor products and techniques on the MarkerPOP blog!

Today, I am creating a watercolor background print. I am using the Altenew's You Make Me Happy stamp set (currently out of stock, but check out the other Altenew floral stamp sets HERE) and ZIG Clean Color markers.

To start this card, I stamped the images with white ink and embossing powder. The embossing powder creates the raised edges to help keep the paint in the right place. I used soft colors to fill in the image. The stems are colored in using ZIG Clean Color - May Green (047 ). The center of the flower is colored in with Light Carmine (021). Light Pink (026) was used on the inside of the flower petals. To fill in the background, Light Blue (036) was used.  To finish the card, the simple sentiment was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
