Whimsy Stamps - Cottage Garden



Welcome back to Robin's Crafting Nest!

What is better then relaxing in the garden on a spring day?  Absolutely nothing!

I am slowly adding to my garden every year and this image is a great
inspiration on what I hope mine will look like someday.  I love that flowers
and trees come in so many colors and textures you can really make
your space into a work of art.

I am using this beautiful image from DoveArt Studios available through Whimsy Stamps.
The image is called Cottage Garden.  I used a lot of different Copic Markers to color
this image today but really you could use just a few and it would come out just as
stunning!  I have been doing a lot of work in my garden and hopefully it won't be
raining this weekend so I can add some gladiolus bulbs to my garden beds
for another dose of color.  Being in the garden is so relaxing!

Power Poppy Tulips



Welcome back to Robin's Crafting Nest!

Have you considered taking online Copic Marker coloring classes?  
If you haven't you should give it a try.  I just took a fantastic class by Rhea Weigand
at PassionatePaperCreations.com.  Rhea teamed up with Marcella Hawley from Power Poppy to develop an amazing class using the Tulips digital image.

I learned so much in this class and really enjoyed learning new Copic skills.

Here is my final card using what I learned in this fun class





For all the details for this card jump over and sign up for Rhea's class at PassionatePaperCreations.com

I hope you enjoy the class and the beautiful cards you can make from it in the future.

Thanks for Visiting!

Power Poppy Luminous Bouquet



Welcome back to Robin's Crafting Nest!

Power Poppy really has the most fantastic floral images for cards!  I just love 
how Marcella Hawley arranges the flowers into amazing displays.  This image is 
called Luminous Bouquet.  It has such an interesting array of flowers.  
They all have great texture that really work well together.  There are so 
many different colors you can use for this image to make it unique 
and different every time you color it. I pulled the sentiment from another
one of Marcella's stamp sets called Loving Tulips.
