A Rainbow of Flowers

The optional twist for Twisted Thursday is Rainbow. I'm not usually a rainbow kind of person, but I am pleased with how this looks with our sponsor's, Anne's Digital Art, container Vase of Iris and Tulips.

The image was colored with Prismacolor colored pencils, the background was watercolored with Derwent watercolors, the frame was die cut with Penny Black's Antique Frame, and some ribbon and rainbow gems were added from my stash. I only used the same rainbow of colors for the flowers as I used in the vase.

Thanks for coming by. Hope you'll join us. Remember, the twist is always optional!

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

This cute set from Paper Sweeties, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, found its way to my desk and just begged to be colored. I used my Copics, but forgot to take a photo of the colors I used.

This is just about the exact drawing I used to make as a child...probably hundreds of times, LOL! (It's just missing the tree, little girl and her dog that I always added.)

The background was created with Distress Oxides and splattered with the nozzle from Shimmer Spray. I used the matching dies to cut out the images, stamped one of the included sentiments and cut that with a stitched die. Most of the images are popped one or two times. Some Nuvo Glitter Gloss added sparkle and a few Nuvo Crystal drops in red were the final touch.

Thanks for stopping by. I love reading your comments.
