It’s All About the Details

Hello! Today I am excited to share a video about adding fun details to a card. I first colored up my image on bristol paper using Zigs, then I added a bunch of extra details. This detail work is fun and EASY, and it adds quite a bit of interest to an otherwise fairly simple card.

I love this butterfly image…and those sentiments are ALL really good, too. Perfect for a time like this!

See all that fun detail work?! I love it. Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I used four kinds of detail-adding elements: a white gel pen, a Copic multi-liner, Nuvo Jewel drops (translucent), and Zig marker. These are all great ways to add DOTS to your cards. Be sure to watch the video for the details.

Adding this kind of detail is something to try at home and see what you like! I can’t wait to see what you create.

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Want to know a secret? That background was not going to be a stormy background. It was going to be a bright, watercolored background. But it morphed into this stormy background, with that angel butterfly staying calm amidst it all! We can all learn from this bright butterfly.

I hope you enjoyed this project today! See you real soon with another card to share.

Watercolor Pens with the Bountiful Blooms set

Hello! Today I’m sharing a project on the Hedgehog Hollow blog that is rather unusual for me. I’m creating a messy watercolor look using the Watercolor Pens and the Bountiful Blooms set from the September Hedgehog Hollow Box. Here’s a sneak peek:

I used all four colors included in the set and a watercolor brush to move that color around, but you could just as easily use a small paintbrush and a little bit of water.

All the details and the VIDEO tutorial are up on the Hedgehog Hollow blog here. So click now to check out just how easy this card style can be!

Thanks for stopping by!
