Another Violet

Hey there! Happy Saturday! I have another Violet for you today. I will admit I have been practicing my coloring on these guys, they are so challenging! I stamped this violet on PTI white in dark chocolate and then went to town with my copics. I did the same with the leaves. Next I cut them all out. For the base I used PTI Enchanted Evening. I stamped it with versa mark. I used my scallop die on some PTI linen vellum. I then stamped with the sentiment from violets in Enchanted Evening. I added a little row of pearls to set it off.
Here is a close up of the flower. I really like this one. It took quite a while to color it, lots of layers of color here, even on the leaves. Hope you like it! Thanks for stopping in.

Hello Violet

Good morning! Today I have for you an orange violet, LOL. I guess its a pansy. Whatever it is I like it in this orange color scheme. The large flower really lends its self to creating interesting backgrounds. I stamped the large flower in orange zest on Kraft. Next I stamped the smaller flower on white with dark chocolate. I colored it up with my copic markers. I stamped the frame in Orange zest and added the sentiment in orange as well. A little swiss dot orange zest ribbon finishes things off. All supplies PTI.
Close up of the flower, now you can see the yellow stickles in the middle. Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous Tuesday!

Violet Thanks


Hello there! Happy Tuesday! Today I have a card for you chock full of my new PTI goodies. First up the Violet from Year of the Flowers: Violets. I thought this flower would be easy to color. I was wrong. Not easy. In Bloom and Friends til the end are so much easier. I stamped the leaves on pp from MM. The striped paper is also from MM (I bought it ages ago, I am sure its not around anymore). I made the scallop with my new PTI scallop die... this is the large scallop. I added some new leaf ribbon which looks avocado like in the pic but in real life is a much truer green. The sentiment is from YOF: Violets. The little frame is from Fillable Frames. I have the die to cut it out, but this one I did by hand. The ink is from dew drops, the name is escaping me at the moment. The base of the card is PTI New Leaf. Thanks for stopping in!
