This image is from an artist named Mark Towner. I acquired it MANY years ago, so it is probably no longer available. I used Copic markers for coloring and Jolee's for the add-ons. I colored the sky and sand with Momento Ink, and the sand is out of a small picture frame that had a seashell in it. (Never throw anything away ) The tree is a Hobby Lobby 3D element. The inside says I hope your day is a big splash. Happy summer, all.
Our Girl Graduated.
Our sweet granddaughter Grace graduated with honors from high school last month. I made her a memory quilt to take to college with her. If she gets homesick, she can just wrap herself up in her memories.
I highly recommend Avery light transfer paper. I have tried them all, as I have made a few of these, and Avery by far is the king of transfer paper. The fabric came from a local quilt shop, and it was long-armed by Anne Cook of Anne's Quilts, Plainwell, MI. I used 100% cotton for the white blocks as transfer takes the best with 100% cotton. Two more grandchildren that need to graduate and make a quilt for, then I am retiring.
Our granddaughter Grace will graduate this year from high school, and life is moving fast. Hope everyone is looking forward to Spring. I am sure sick of snow.
The stamped images are all Penny Black. The strip across the bottom is foiled with Stick and Shine then colored over with Tim Holtz Oxide inks. The vase and flowers were colored with a water pen and Tim Holtz Oxide Inks.
This is another take on the same set I posted a day or so ago. All dies and images are Penny Black and all inks are Tim Holtz Oxide.
I used a Penny Black postage stamp and a coordinating flower. All ink is Tim Holtz distress oxide inks. Flowers were colored with distress oxide ink and a water pen after embossing with a heat gun and clear powder.The purple underlay is also fromPenny Black and is called Geometric. Penny Black has come out with some awesome designs.
