I was also inspired by two of Becca's prompts:
- A bright bold explosion of colors
- Artsy fartsy experimentation
Here's my card, something very different for me! Yes, it's a cat, but my first colourful cat!
I started by creating a watercolour background using Zig markers: Pink, Light Pink, Light Violet, English Lavender, Haze Blue, Light Blue, and Cobalt Blue. I recently won this gorgeous kitty from Karleigh Sue Digis called El Gato Dia De Los Muertos (thank you!). I thought it was perfect, not only for Becca's card but also for Kathy Racoosin's 30-day Colouring Challenge at The Daily Marker (I'm 19 for 19!).
We were at Walmart the other day and Brian bought me some new markers! They are Bic Mark-its! Yes, they are children's markers, but I love them! They are alcohol markers with a very limited colour palette but so fun to colour with! I really enjoyed colouring this kitty!
I decided to make this a shaker card, perfect for the challenge at Pink and Main:
Here are the other products used on my card:
- Sentiment stamp: Clearly Besotted Furry Friends (heat embossed in white)
- Die: Gina Marie Designs Scalloped Stitched Frame
- Accents: Sequins, butterfly sequins, gems - all from my stash
Thank you for looking at my card - I hope you like it, Becca! Wishing everyone a joyful day!
