Friends Forever with the new Gardening Girlfriends by Sharon Caudle

 Hello AI Fans!

Hope you're having an excellent start to the week and are enjoying some spring weather! It's been pretty chilly here in Reno, but spring is definitely in the air! The trees are finally starting to bud and the grass is starting to turn green again!! Today I have a card that features one of the newly released sets from Art Impressions #5798 Gardening Girlfriends. I am soooo happy that we've got new Girlfriends! And for those of you that love to watercolor, you're going to be madly in love! Bonnie made these Girlfriend images with empty pots that are just made for watercoloring! And if you don't watercolor, there are lots of sets with flowers that will be perfect to add to this set! I would usually choose the latter because I use Copics for my coloring. But this time, I actually colored the image with my Copics, but then I created a mask for the main image and then pulled out one of my watercolor sets and Tombows to create the flowers in the pots. *gasp* HAHA  Don't fall over from shock! I didn't use any water as that would not go well with the cryogen white paper I use with my Copic markers. But I think it turned out ok. Let me know what you think...I could definitely use some practice! LOL! 





So that's it for me today! Thank so much for stopping by for a visit and until next time - stay crafty!

Watercolor Throwback - Small Containers Video

Hello Ai Fans!

This week, we are going back to last year for a special throwback Watercolor Wednesday! Our Small Containers video is one of the most popular videos from the last year and we thought it would be a great refresher on creating sweet and simple watercolor images.

To start, she stamps all the flower pots in Sepia and begins filling them with our new WC Flower Set 2 and WC Foliage Set 2 New. To place the fillers perfectly in the pots, simply use a sticky note to create an easy mask. Bonnie then adds colors to the pots by using her markers on the palette and pulling the color with her brush. For the final touch, add some color below the pots so they have some ground to sit on, and you can pull color from the sides of the pots to set the scene. Don't forget to sign and date your mini masterpiece!

We hope you are enjoying all our new stamps! If you like this video, make sure to give Bonnie a "thumbs up" over on YouTube. While you are there, subscribe to our channel to be notified when new videos are available! Thanks for watching and we will see you next week!
