Elephant Dream

Here's my second card using stamps from Spellbinders Whimsical and Wild

collection by Jane Davenport, called Elephant Dream.

If you're not familiar with Jane Davenport's style, you'll see that she uses

a TON of color on her projects. I chose to honor her use of color but opted
to lay down color the quickest way that I know--ink distressing.

I added random colors of Distress inks over a watercolor panel then stamped

the image in Versafine Onyx Black ink. I covered the image and spattered 

water over the panel. 

I was going to take away color with a water brush, but wanted to keep it as

vibrant as possible, so I added some highlights with a white pigment pen.

Check out Jane Davenport's collection at Spellbinders. You'll be glad you did!

Brave Bear

The kind folks at Spellbinders sent me stamps from Jane Davenport's 

newest collection: Whimsical and Wild. I chose the set called Brave Bear 

and was drawn to the oversized bear with his kind face.

  

 

 

 

The image was stamped and colored with a combination of Copic markers and

Prismacolor pencils.  

 

 

I stamped the sentiment and trimmed the piece.  Two colors of ink were sponged

on the card base and the panel was adhered to it. 

I'll be sharing another card very soon using another of Jane's fun, whimsical images.

Thanks for stopping by!
