Happy Memorial Weekend 2024

 

Happy Birthday Chad

 

Guest Designing for Art Impressions March 31, 2024

 

Hello,

It's been a while since I posted on my blog. I get to be a guest designer on the Art Impressions blog this weekend and was inspired by where I live now in beautiful Bella Vista, Arkansas. Spring is so gorgeous here with all of the green and the white and purple trees blooming. There are also daffodils all over town. There are bridges and churches and lots of water here. I'm so happy I moved here after living in the desert of Las Vegas, NV for 36 years. 

I started this by stamping the 5526 Footbridge Simple Scene. Next, I stamped the church on the hill from the 5058 WC Church set. I knew I needed color under the trees so the white would show up so I colored everything including the sky then stamped the smaller tree from the 5010 WC Tree set in the four places. I used the flowers from the 4052 Flower Set for the purple tree in Tombow 685. The yellow and pink flowers are the dots from that same flower set. The grass is from the 4051 Foliage set in front by the bunny from the 5737 Bunny and Chicks set. The foliage in the back is from the 5372 Mini Foliage Set. The white trees are made using the Dr. Ph Martin's bleed proof white. I hope you guys give this a try and tag me in it if you do, please. Happy Easter! 

Supplies used:

Hello,

I finally made a Halloween card this year and loved how it turned out. It's from the Art Impressions stamp set 5602  - Spooky House & Post Set. Give it a try! 

Fall Scene

Hello,

Don't you love how vibrant this red color is? It's from a Ranger Distress Ink Lumberjack Plaid. I just love how it looks in these Art Impressions watercolored scenes. I just put a drop on the palette and use a brush. The stamp set I used is 5593 Harvest Scenes. I love how you don't have to stamp and mask and it's all done for you.

Happy Birthday Bonnie!

 

Hi everyone! 

The most wonderful artist Bonnie Krebs - Owner/Creator of Art Impressions, is having a birthday July 11 and I made this card for her. I hope everyone wishes Bonnie a happy birthday and she gets more cards than she has ever gotten before. She is wonderful, generous and kind to everyone and dedicates so much time to teach us her awesome technique which is where I learned how to watercolor. Happy birthday Bonnie! You are so loved and appreciated!

Daisy Barn

 

Hello,

Bonnie Krebs, Owner/Creator of Art Impressions posted a video on Facebook on this beautiful barn. I love how she taught us to make the boards more rustic looking. Who doesn't love daisies? Fun one. Give it a try!
