Happy July Everyone!

     Originally I was going to make a card using design paper and basic card supplies, but I can't seem to get mixed media out of my head.  So there's layers of watercolors and acrylics instead of dp.  :) I started out with a digi design by Tiddlyinks and colored the image with Copic markers    Then I decided I wanted to incorporate some twine into the scene, so I gave the flowers a whimsical center using it.

     I made the little flower centers by punching a circle, sticking a glue dot to it, then winding the twine right onto this, and the petals were made by coloring with Copics and coating them with Star Dust Stickles.

     It's a bit easier to see the glitter in this picture; sprinkled onto the paint/gel medium combination.  The lollipop is coated with Glossy Accents.  The challenge at *Oozak's Blog* is a card/project with a girlie theme.  Hope you'll join us; thanks for stopping by!

  3. I found your blog via the Oozak challenge and I just love it. I am beginning to also venture into mixed media and am combining that with my beloved copics, too. I was just wondering if you could share the paper that you used here? Was the image colored on the same paper that you applied the watercolor? I am intrigued by trying my hand at this and I know that the papers for copics are different for the papers for watercolors so it is hard to know. I am now also your newest follower.. My email is governalea@hotmail.com. I also have a blog, My Eclectic Spirit, if you want to visit, too. Thank you so much and now I am going to look around to see your other beautiful creations!! xxx Ann Marie
