Washi Smile

Hello friends, I am up with something different today.

I have used Altenew washi here for this card, and tried focusing only on that here. As you can see I have used many other products from Altenew here for this card.


I have used the gold string washi to diecut the SMILE and I used another galaxy watercolor washi to create the BG for the card.
I used the flower from another Altenew set and did some sewing here.
The letters are added using foam adhesive. I added a thin sentiment strip on the word SMILE, and white strip at the base to finish off the card.
Hope you like it.

Poppy illustration an coloring

Hello friends, I am revealing another of my flower digi today, it is the poppy. I was gonna reveal it for December but it was printed and sitting on my desk, and I was tickled to color it for the current coloring challenge. So i thought lets share it!

I have as usual used the zigs for initial watercolor layer , followed by prismacolor pencils to color it. K used gouache paints to add some orange splatters.

The sentiment is from Altenew Sincere greetings, I used perfect pearls for that, and used foam adhesive to add.

That's all nothing much other than coloring on this card or any card I had been sharing nowadays.

Hope you like this.

Glowing lotus in dark

Happy Tuesday everyone!

I am up with another card using my lotus digital stamp.

I was inspired by my uber talented friend Pooja and the directions for the coloring came from my darling daughter, she is an exceptional artist, much better than me for sure because she studied art in school. She gave me an insight on how to achieve a glow, and I applied what I understood from her!

I will add the process pictures first then the card.


The initial watercoloring is done using the Zig markers. I have used a normal cards tock here, not the watercolor paper. This was done in the night, and left it for drying overnight.


I colored again using the prismacolor pencils this morning.


After the splatters I have questioned myself if I had ruined the piece.
Bit i had to remind myself that this picture is clicked on my desk, where the lighting is bad, so I wanted to finish the card and click pictures in proper lighting by my huge windows.
Quite satisfied with the overall card.

The sentiment might be a question mark for some of you, why is it so dull? I always put my perspectives on my cards. I thought a dim sentiment popping up in dark is better for overall feel and will go well with both the design and meaning.

Floral girl - a simple illustration and coloring

Hello friends, I am up with another illustration and coloring of mine. Tis illustration is inspired by an old card of mine, I think its from June 2018.

This is the card which inspired me to illustrate this digital image now.



I know that the eyebrow and other parts needs more work in the digi, but I am happy with the rest of the floral design, even the eye! For time being I have decided to color, but will surely improve it later.

So I gave it a go for the coloring challenge.

I have used Prismacolor pencils, you can see the wide range of colors used on this simple coloring.

The lips were colored in nude tone because I wear that shade of lipstickšŸ˜‚and I had a hard time convincing myself to add a bit of pink to it.

The sentiment is from CAS-ual Fridays.

I used a pink and black DI to create the edge on the base card.

Nothing else is done here. I hope you like it.

Poinsettia on black

Hello friends, I am up with another poinsettia card using my digital image which I introduces earlier this month. Here is a look at the digital stamp.


I printed it on a black paper this time, though I would have loved to emboss it, but my printer ink dries up instantly so i couldn't try that. Instead I tried perfect pearls and these have stick to the faintly wet ink, and given enough outlines for me to color the image.

As if one experiment wasn't enough that i tried another one here with Craftangles metallic watercolors and another shade of red watercolor from them, mix those 2 and painted the initial layer for the poinsettias, quite a visibility on black and that's where the shimmer is from.

I then used Prismacolor pencils to add the remaining details to the coloring. I also used a gold gel pen to add the veins to the leaves.

The base card is white, I have used the DI pine needle and aged mahogany on the edges to create that aged vintage look. The sentiment is also created the same way, and is from Uniko.

I hope you like this very different card from me.

Pencil colored Snowglobe

Hello friends, it is the day 3 of the coloring challenge, I have yet again used the bubble coloring technique, but to color a Snow-globe here. I thought of exploring various objects with similar looks as bubbles, to bring some variety to the bubbles.

I decided to create a One layer card.

The whole scene is created by me, 1st time creating a snowman, not that these are hard, but getting them right is also bit tricky.

Also all my christmas stamps are spread across 2 different countries, and I have just 1 stamp here with me, it is the outline sentiments from Uniko. So I am putting my drawing skills to some use of lately.

I will start with the process picture first, so you get an idea how this all came together.

I also added a small tree. i sponged some snow using a stencil with white pigment ink. The gelly roll has come handy where I wanted the white to be very bright.

The sentiment is also tamped with the white pigment ink.
