Power Poppy: Introducing... Tiger Lily XL

Hey all!  Welcome to Day 5 of the Power Poppy “Spring Fling” Collection clear stamp reveal.  Today is our final day of sneak peeks.  We have shown you a whopping EIGHT clear stamp sets.  Here are the first seven sets to gawk at…
*have coordinating dies available for pre-sale beginning today.

and finally for today, our amazing new Tiger Lily XL
You may have already seen this beauty as it was used by Kathy Racoosin on Day 1 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge!  Isn't it a beaut?!?!

For my final card of the release I chose to watercolor this big beauty with my Derwent Inktense Pencils and then add some details back in using my Prismacolor Pencils.  This image was a pleasure to colour!!!
I know it's extremely hard to see but I created a background using the beautiful sentiment included in the stamp set, distressed it a bit using some Ranger Distress Inks and then did a whole lot of stitching over top and then added the Chevron Segments Die from MFT over top.

A few things you need to check out before you go…

Go Green, Plant Kindness & a Giveaway!

Howdy all!  Happy Friday!  It’s a new month over on the Power Poppy Blog so today being the first Friday, we’re introducing a brand new “Power & Spark Challenge”.

http://powerpoppy.blogspot.ca/search/label/Power%20%26%20Spark%20Challenge
In honor of Pantone’s 2017 Color of the Year choice, “Greenery”,  let’s create projects featuring green!  

Here is an excerpt from Pantone’s description of “Greenery”…
Greenery is a fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew. Illustrative of flourishing foliage and the lushness of the great outdoors, the fortifying attributes of Greenery signals consumers to take a deep breath, oxygenate and reinvigorate.
 
For further challenge details, click here.  Come and participate and WIN a Power Poppy stamp!

Well let me tell ya!  Power Poppy has LOTS of greenery so there’s lots to choose from to colour so I chose to highlight all the delightful herbs from the “Sage Advice” stamp set.  There’s certainly a lot of greenery there!
Copic Colors: V12, V15, V25, BG11, YG00, YG01, YG17, YG23, YG97, G21, G46, G94, E33

Who says a colander has to be metallic?? I thought purple was a nice change!  I coloured the ribbon to match the plaid paper on the card.

So come and have some featuring some GREENERY or the colour GREEN on your cards this month for our challenge.  Here are few more examples from my fellow Bloomies…
Allison Cope - you are here!
