Monochromatic Colored Image & a Featured Guest


Hello! Welcome back to my blog. Today's image is a freebie from Beat Paper. I chose to color this image because of the cats. If you follow me, I love coloring cats because my sister has cats. Unfortunately, I am not coloring the cats based on her pet cats since the theme of this card is monochromatic pink.

I printed the image on watercolor paper. I colored the image using various Tim Holtz Distress pink inks. 

I fussy cut the image leaving a white border around it.

To make this into a card, I used scrap pink patterned papers and adhered this to a typing paper cut at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I lightly moistened this with a baby wipe before running it through a 3D heart embossing folder. I lightly blended a pink ink on this embossed panel so that the raised hearts will catch the ink.


For the sentiments, my son suggested adding speech bubbles to the scene. I heat embossed a speech bubble on vellum using clear embossing powder. I stamped the word 'mew' on the speech bubble using Versafine Onyx Black ink. I poured clear embossing powder to this, then heat embossed it. I fussy cut the speech bubble leaving a small border around it.

For the banner sentiment, I die cut one of the patterned papers using a banner die. I stamped the sentiment to the banner using the same black ink I used, poured clear embossing powder, then heat set it.

I adhered the elements of the card to the embossed panel.

My featured guest artist is my 11-year old son who colored the same image. He used Copic markers on his images.
