 Hiya Friends,

Am blogging from Kerala this time, enjoying being with my Sibling Fam and Parents. Great to meet them after a long time and spending time here from the mundane is such blissful.

Am thrilled to post here today as Design Ambassador of Trinity stamps. They were kind enough to send me few product lines to play. 

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Trinity Blooming Bunch stamp over Canson Montval Watercolor cardstock using DI Antique Linen to attempt Noline Watercoloring.
  • Colored using Gansai Tambi 36 pan Watercolor set with Silver black velvet brushes.
  • Die cut using the same co-ordinating die.
  • Took a watercolor cardstock, applied grey rough brush strokes using flat brushes as shown and then embossed using Trinity A2 Quilted cover plate.
  • Pasted the A2 cover plate focal panel over the A2 sized White cs and foam mounted the floral die cut.
  • Diecut was generously splashed with white acrylic paint and few white gel pen marks were added to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Flat Fall Bouquet | Procreate | Digital Art

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

 Hi All,

Happy October Guys!

I have done a Flat Fall Bouquet using @everytuesday Teela’s tutorial. As always her tutorials are informative and easy peasy for a beginner to follow along. No prior knowledge of Procreate is necessary as every tutorial takes you through a doable pace of learning. Must say, Absolutely enjoying her tutorials. 

I love to add a bit of Lettering with whatever brushes I have in Procreate plus the purchased ones.
Yes!! I started buying Procreate Watercolor brushes instead of Real ones!! 
@Freyas.art sale is going on, Purchased 144 Ultimate Watercolor Brushes set for 29 $, seems a good deal to learn variety of textures and usages.
Below is a Watercolor wreath and Lettering done in 2018.

I love the transition to Digital art using Procreate which I purchased in 2019 and got to use only now 🙂 

Hope you like it!!

Layered Illusion | Procreate | Digital illustration

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

Hiya Friends,

Recently I took a jump into Procreate world of Digital Illustration and attended a Wonderful Workshop for Watercolor illustration by Anjali Rengan of @thelettersofanarchitect

Now took a massive leap and tried a tutorial, which hit my inbox 2 days before from Teela of @everytuesday .

Two years before, DH gifted me a iPad Air (3rd Gen) and we installed Procreate (paid app). But, as am busy with Paper-Paint affair with my Cardmaking and Coloring, couldn’t do any justice to the application bought.

Now is the Right Time…As my blog gonna celebrate 10 yr blogoversary sooner.

Must say, I absolutely love the walkthrough of this tutorial. As a newbie too, am able to understand each of the steps shared in Procreate. And tried little bit of Digital lettering too with that.

Hope you like my maiden attempt at Digital Art.

Thanks for stopping by!
