With the month of April upon us, I had to paint something pretty & spring-like for Art Impressions' Watercolour Weekend, so I've pulled out nine different stamp sets to put my scene together:
I began by colouring the boots from 5194 - WC Shoe Set in #N55 Tombow Dual Brush Marker, leaving the top edge uncoloured. Using my stamp positioner, I added the bunny from 5425 - WC Peeking Animals, the pail from WC Containers and the sitting bunny from 4874 - WC Bunnies Set, all in #N55. I painted in colour on all of them, adding #533 and #565 to the boots, N55 to the bunnies, and #N55/451 to the pail. For the bouquet, I used the pinecone from 5472 - WC Christmas Wreath Set, adding #993 to the center, and #725 around it, to create the roses (be sure to not colour the entire pinecone!). As a filler flower, I used the tiny blooms from 4868 - WC Flower Set 2 stamped in #606, and the tiny leaves in 4867 - WC Foliage Set 2 in #177 as the greenery. After masking the boots & bunny, I stamped the two grasses from 5007 - WC Foliage Set 3 in #177, and used it as a wash on the ground. The two carnation stems in 5475 - WC Flower Set 6 were coloured with #993/126, and added to the pail and on the ground. To finish, I added some #526 to the sky, and die cut my scene with 5063 - Stitched Rectangle Die.
