Jeanne Bobish : Beautiful Day

Well today I decided to again use the Beautiful Day stamps set from Altenew, but this time I decided to color the image instead of layering it with inks. I have listed all the supplies below.

I tend to create my cards a little backwards than most. I started off by stamping just the large blossom onto a piece of Spectrum Noir Marker paper. I then chose the colors of copics I wanted to use and proceeded to color it. I was pleased with how it turned out, so I stamped the image again onto some masking paper and masked off the large flower. I then took two of the smaller stamps and stamped them around the main blossom. I removed the masking paper and colored the remaining stamped images. I thought that blue would be a good color to pair with the yellow-orange of the main blossom. Once completely colored, I added the sentiment using Jet Black ink.

I cut the marker paper to 5 1/4 by 4" and matted it on to a blue card base which complimented the blue flowers. I then added three yellow rainbow drops for some added interest.

I am not used to creating cards such as this that are rather stark, so I am working outside my comfort zone. I have been really practicing and taking some classes from Kit and Clowder to try and improve my coloring. I still need to practice and have so much more to learn, but it is a start and I am really pleased in how this image turned out. I hope you like it too!
