Hi, it's Therese and I am so happy to share an idea today for a bright card design.
I stamped and coloured the parrot image from Parrot Paradise stamp set with Copic markers and used Prismacolor pencils to add depth to the coloring.
I have made my own background design using the Pattern Play – Hexagon stamp set. Firstly I chose colors that would work well together and repeatedly stamped the filler images with Altenew Crisp Dye Inks. I used Orange Cream, and Pinkalicious.
Then I was able to die cut the sentiment using the Bold Alphabet Die set from Turquoise cardstock and I popped each of the letters up on some white fun foam. Then I added a sentiment from the Sentiments & Quotes Stamp Set.
I have linked a video below. So you can watch the process to see how it all came together.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.
