Plus with this being the first Friday of the month, the
Bloom
Brigade is ushering in a new
Power & Spark Challenge for the month of
April and it’s a
doozey!!!
Power & Spark - 3 Marker Challenge -
only use 3 markers to colour!
1. Pick three markers from the same colour family to create a monochromatic
design… OR…
2. Pick three markers from complementary colour families - easier to
blend…OR…
3. For the courageous or expert....pick three random markers and colour
away!
For all the challenge rules and specifics, please visit
this post.
So join me in my creative space today, to see how I picked and coloured up
the sweet birdie wreath from the fun “
Folk
Heart” stamp collection…
To see it in HD, visit YouTube
here.
And here’s another quick look at my final birthday card celebrating
Power Poppy’s 2nd Birthday today featuring a sentiment from the
“
Short Stacks” stamp set…
And as you can see, I added some bling to make it sparkle…
Along with a new challenge, some of the
Bloom Brigade will
also be sharing some sketchy creations today. A few of the designers have joined Becky
Fleck over on the
PageMaps site to flaunt some new cards using
Becky’s latest card sketches… me included! Today I’m only going to sneak peek
my card but you can see it in it’s full “
Glory” over in the April
CardMaps
right here.
I used the super fun-tastic “
Play Ball!” stamp set to create a whimsical masculine birthday card.
Wishing Marcy and
Power Poppy another fabulous year ahead! Check out what
the
Bloom Brigade has in store for you…
