Green & Yellow Cards

The two cards I am posting today have a common theme.  They both use a green and yellow color combo.  I am not sure what got into me, because these are probably the last 2 colors I would expect myself to use together, but it works with the new Nook and Pantry paper from Basic Grey, so why fight it?  LOL




This first card uses a cute little dragonfly boy from Stamping Bella.  Isn't he adorable?  I colored him with Copic markers and drew in the grass with Prismacolor Pencils.  I was daring and went with some sparkly green glitter for the wings.  It IS a boy card, but I decided it could have glitter anyway.  Boys like glitter, right?  LOL

My next card uses a Stella image from Stamping Bella.  This line of images took some time to grow on me, but I finally decided to take the plunge and get one.  They are super fun to stamp with.  :)  I chose this one because I have a friend who uses the phrase, "suck it up", a LOT and I thought it would make a fun card for her.  :)




Stella was stamped in Memento black and colored with Copic markers.  I added some glitter to her wand and crown.  The metallic portions of the vacuum are colored with a silver Spica glitter pen.

In case you missed it on my last post, I wanted to let you know about the watermark I recently got and used on these cards.  That came from Karen Giron HERE and it was only $2!  That is awesome.  She is super easy to work with and provides great service.  I highly recommend her. :)
