Be a Peacock!

So I have been participating in the #sisterswithheartinart challenge on IG, and every week there's a new prompt, this week was  "Peacock", so I took it all the way. I started by drawing on black card stock.

I used Prismacolor pencils. 

Then I colored the body in and cut out the outline. 

Just the body, but I left the bottom connected. 

Then I got my bag of feathers. 

Might be messy... 

Then arranged them behind the body. 

First feather. 

Then I attached it all to a distress inked background. I also hand lettered the quote and mounted it on glitter paper. 

So many feathers! 

This did take a while, but It was really fun, next post will be my first post for Quick Quotes! Happy crafting!

More lettering and #muglife

Hi everyone! This post just to capture the last of my cards and artwork for the week. I made this card for a challenge, the prompt was "Cup". 

#muglife  

This was done by drawing the cup on watercolor paper, using Tombow brush pens to color and then embossing the #muglife. 

i also found the time to do some more hand lettering. 

Market and pen on white Bristol

I used a mixture of Pitt artist pens, Sharpie Fine, Le Pen, and Copic markers for this one. Took about 2-2.5 hours from start to finish, hopefully I'll get faster. I'll be starting next week with a 10 minute card, until then Happy Crafting! 

Gab about encouragement

This is a card I did to follow my other "Sound & Color" card from last week.  I used the same artwork, but changed the background to distress ink and acetate. 

Shoot across the sky. 

I wanted to do a mashup of encouragement with my unicorn drawing as well, so I revisited that with a distress ink background as well, but used a normal card stock base. 

Always have hope. 

I have some new ideas coming up soon for some of the doodles I put together. 

Dance with me! 

The feelings ninja. 

I'll be posting cards with these in the next few days and I will try to post some tutorial videos for these techniques as well. Happy crafting!
