Zig Real Brush - Right as Rain

Lawn Fawn Tropical Scene

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a “just because” tropical-themed card combining several Lawn Fawn products.

I have been wanting to color more with the Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Both the flamingos and the alligator were stamped on the Mixed Media paper and colored with Zig markers (the markers yield bright results!).

I added the animals to a die-cut scene created with Palm Trees, Hillside Borders, and a card base cut with the largest die in the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables set. I used the Speech Bubbles set for the sentiment. I envisioned the alligator luring the flamingos over with his “Hello”!

Newton’s Book Club – Colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brushes

Hello! Today, I am sharing a “just because” CAS card created with the Newton’s Nook Newton’s Book Club stamp set. You can see the other two cards I created with the same stamp set here (Copic-colored cat) and here (watercolored cat).

I stamped the cat with Intense Black ink on Mixed Media paper and colored him (her?) with a combination of Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens (list below). It is easy to blend the colors on this paper, and I did so with almost no water. For the background, and the accent strip, I used patterned paper from a Echo Park pad (from several seasons ago) that complemented the reading/book theme.

Hello, Beautiful

Hello! Today, I am sharing a card featuring the Simon Says Stamp Spring Flower Burst stamp set (part of the Sending Sunshine release) colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers.

To make the card:

I stamped the Spring Flower Burst images with Intense Black ink on mixed media paper and colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I colored first with a darker color and then with a lighter color; for example, Persian Blue blended with Light Blue and Wine Red blended with Pink Flamingo. I used both the cluster floral image and individual floral images from the stamp set.
I cut the images and adhered the individual flowers over the cluster floral image with foam adhesive for additional dimension.
I colored the card panel background with Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide ink and added the blooms to the background.
I scored the card base on the left (not a tent-fold) and added the floral panel to the card base.
I heat-embossed the MFT Essential Sentiments sentiment on Black Licorice cardstock and cut it with one of the banners in the Extra Sentiment Banners set. I added the sentiment banner over the floral images.

I previously shared cards made with the Spring Flower Burst stamp set in this post and this post.
