You Make Me Smile


 

You Make Me Smile…

   Hello Friends and welcome!  Today’s card features a cute set from My Favorite Things “Sunshine Friends” and watercoloring using Zig Clean Color markers.  I first trimmed a piece of Neenah solar white cardstock and ink blended panel using Distrss Inks in peacock feathers and salvaged patina (top) then grabbed MFT’s “Grassy Edges” stencil and blended mowed lawn and twisted citron (bottom).  I then die cut another piece of Neenah solar white cardstock using MFT’s “Grassy Fields” die-namics and also ink blended that piece.  Next, I stamped images onto a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock using Versamark ink then white heat embossed images.  I grabbed several Zig Clean Color markers to watercolor these adorable images.  I first added the color to the area of each image where I thought the shadows would be then pulled the color out using a light wash of water.  I chose the “You Make Me Smile” sentiment from the set and stamped sentiment onto ink blended panel and white heat embossed.  To finish, I assembled elements and adhered to card base.  These adorable images certainly make me smile and hope they make you smile too!  Thanks so much for stopping by…take care!
