Day 1- Hello coffee

Hello!
Happy Friday!

Yayyy! The day has just arrived!!! I always eagerly waiting for one of my favorite hop and Today is day 1 with amazing sponsors and organized by very Talented Amy Tsuruta!!!!

I love this delicate coffee cup which is overflowing with pretty spring plants. It is steeped in details and was a delight coloring it the way I like!
Recently there was a  GDT application call from Stamplorations Stamps and I got this image to showcasing my coloring skills. Glad to tell you all that I am selected as GDT to the end of this year term:) Feeling amazing!!!!


I fancy summer colors and I had to envision the bouquet in hues of blues and greens!



To achieve the desired result, I watercolored using different mediums. Here I played with my Zig Clean Color brushes. After I was done coloring up the individual portions, I went back and added some depth with my Staedtler watercolor pencils. I fussy cut the image and placed it on to my Crazy Double Running Stitch panel which is partially hand cut too!

Some close-ups:





Now placed it on my base card where I already complimented it with a woody texture PP.
Popped up the focal panel using foam dots. Added a die cut sentiment with shadowing!

Embellished it with few dew drops!

I was very happy seeing the final result - A coffee cup with colourful spring flowers in full bloom!!

Supplies used:
Cardstock: Textured white CS, black CS
Pattern Paper: Woody Collection from A1 craft store
Stamp: Stamplorations Hello coffe image
Dies: Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangles die and Awesome phrase die and Bold Sentiments from Stamplorations (Cutplorations); Stitched Basic Edges from Die-namics( MFT)
Zig Clean Color Real Brush
Staedtler Watercolor pencils
Dew Drops: Water color
