I don't about you, but I LOVE handmade stationary. Here's my attempt at some homemade greeting cards.
I got some new art supplies for my birthday, and I was so excited to put them to use. I just love mixing different mediums and working with collage.
My lovely boyfriend gave me this really awesome custom stamp set that I had been wanting. You can write out any words or messages that you like, so it's really fun to make your cards personal. Just remember arrange your letters backwards!
I was also excited to use my new watercolors, also from my bf. I had some thank you cards to send out so this project was perfect. I was pretty pleased with my results!!!
Hope your all have a wonderful weekend!!!
These are absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI must get me the stamp set! Where did he get it from?
Just kidding. You linked it ;)
DeleteThose are gorgeous. I love the style you've created. xx

What brand water colors are those? The colors are really bright and nice an I'm looking for a set.
ReplyDeleteI'm using Winsor & Newton Artist's watercolor set. They are wonderful paints, and having the compact pan is great for traveling and for sketching. Here's a link on Amazon:

They make a student grade set that is a little more affordable, although I haven't worked with those, so I don't know how strong the pigments are.
Hope this helps!!!
Thank you. :D
DeleteI love these! So simple and pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable, I love the one with the birds and the triangles. :) Inspired me to get painting!

ReplyDeleteI had to get a set for myself when I saw this post of yours! Unfortunately I couldn't find the same that would also ship to Europe. You can see it here: http://www.tamarasblend.com/2012/07/stamps.html
