You are Amazing | Peony Floral | Uniko

~ Sathya ~ 5 Comments

 Hi Friends,

Am here today with a floral card again. This time tried to use some muted tones and kept me away from darker tones a lot.

Am a Mixedmedia artist at heart who loves loads of textures and layering. But here I have kept a clean and simple design using a watercolored floral as a focal point. Noline coloring technique is my only way to color as stamped lines makes me blank always. 

Uniko’s Peony florals stampset is my most favorite stampset and I have played several times earlier. Check here, here, here, here.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped Uniko Peony florals onto Arches CP Watercolor paper using Antique Linen DI for Noline watercoloring.
  • Used Prima The classics watercolor pan set for this card.
  • The floral is then fussy cut and kept aside to prepare the loose watercolored bg onto Arches HP using the left over paints.
  • Diecut using MFT stitched Rec Stax die.
  • Stamped the sentiment form Uniko Just because stamp set using Mudra Mai jet black ink pad. 
  • Liberally splashed white acrylic paint splatters over the fussy cut floral and foam mounted onto the watercolored focal panel.
  • Then its foam mounted onto Cairo cream A2 sized top fold cardbase.
  • Finally few dew droplets are added for interest.
Hope you like it!

Hugs & Kisses : Uniko Floral card

~ Sathya ~ 6 Comments

 Hiya Friends!

Am loaded with Guest Designing projects for next month and so squeezed in a bit of time for my personal project to play along few challenges in Blogland.

Over to my project,

Absolutely love pencil coloring as much as I love watercoloring. I love to experiment with different mediums and this peony bud was one of my favorite from Uniko stamps. I was using the large peony floral many a times and neglecting this small peony and today was the perfect time to do Pencil coloring with Prisma colored pencils.

  • Stamped on a fine grain watercolor cardstock using Antique Linen to do a online coloring using prisma colored pencils.
  • Colored using various shades of pinks and greens of Prisma colored pencils.
  • Splattered white acrylics over the floral liberally.
  • Stamped the sentiment from same stampset using Mudra Mai Jet black ink pad.
  • Matted over a black cardstock and then to a kraft A2 cardbase.
  • Few clear dew droplets and paper pieced butterflies to finish off the card.

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!

Life’s Little things : Kaisercraft

~ Sathya ~ 20 Comments
Hi Friends,

As an Introvert my daily routine hasn’t changed much! Working in isolation and maintaining a social distance has been a Lifestyle. It can be overwhelming for some to stay home during this Covid-19 Pandemic. Go back to what you love to do. Rearrange your interiors. Spend time with your Family and learn new art.

Idea of this CAS card born when am shifting my Pothos plants from balcony today, as our part of India is experiencing peak summer.

My Mom is a Plant Nerd and she maintained a huge garden in our Home. I grew up seeing her do rose stem grafting, collecting and sowing seeds, preparing soil beds for our Rose plants. My deep interest on Gardening is what my Momma sow in me and it continues to grow well here.

Over to my card for Today,

  • Took watercolor cardstock and sponged Antique Linen DI around leaving a central portion.
  • Then stamped a text stamp from HNDMD Old Newspaper stamp on the background on the edges randomly to give a subtle texture using Antique linen DI.
  • Stamped the sentiment from Kaisercraft Blue Bay (new in my stash) using Memento Tuxedo black ink.
  • Started to stamp the leaf twig from Uniko Just because stampset (new in my stash) using Peeled Paint DO on the lower half of the panel around the sentiment.
  • Liberally splashed same waterdowned DO splatters on the card over the leaves.
  • Added three clear dew droplets for the visual interest.
  • Trimmed a bit and added this to A2 sized top fold black card base.
Hope you like this card!
