Morning Peeps, Saturday again and this weeks Allsorts theme as selected by Lorraine - aka Lolo, is 'Hand coloured or paper pieced image'. We have a lovely Tonic die donated by Colemans Warehouse as well as some images from Ruth Hamilton Design, so two winners this week.
I've got some paper piecing and colouring and also a couple of Two Red Robin shares, anyone tempted by their lovely nature inspired products can get a 10% discount by quoting brenda10 at checkout.
At the top a paper pieced creation using AALL and Create Textured Florals, it's an A5 set with this bloom, another plus sentiments and worker stamps. An Oxide background and the bloom stamped in a random circle shape in back and pink inks, then a focal bloom paper pieced using a deeper saturation of the same pink. The sentiment is from the same set as if the 'F' which I stamped onto white card, cut out and coloured the circles to carry the colour.
For my second share, I have used Ruth's Tulips, printing them our several times, colouring as best I could, we all know I'm not a colourist, cutting out and placing into a framed scene using Two Red Robins Bicycle and Stile from Cottonwood Clearing and Crookedy Fence.
And one more share, this one using Two Red Robins Botanical Beauty Tulips and Reflection sheets in two colurways, Ditsy Daisy and one of the chicks from Daisy, Dotty and Dizzy. The piece of Spring poetry is computer generated.
Happy weekend all and as always I really appreciate your visits and words of encouragement.

That beautiful A&C coneflower really lends itself to paper piecing or colouring doesn't it? LOVE the background inking too.
ReplyDeleteYour two other cards are full of Spring. Just wonderful!

The first of these cards really stands out for me Brenda- love the vibrant colours and that fantastic cone flower- paper-piecing too (a sweet reminder).

These are all so beautifully done, love them all. Thought I liked the first one best, but as I scrolled down I couldn't decide anymore, but I am so drawn to the way you used Ruth's tulips for that wonderful scene! And then I am just loving all these pretty pastel colors and baby chick on the last one! So glad we don't need to select a favorite!

ReplyDeleteBuonasera Brenda, sono impressionata dalla tua prima card! Che spettacolo!! Stupendo design e il fiore stampato tante volte e poi il paper piecing... è un'esplosione di Primavera! I sentiments bianchi danno ancora più luce a questo straordinario lavoro!!! Davvero ispiratore!
ReplyDeleteAnche le due card seguenti sono deliziose, davvero hanno un bel feel primaverile e che bellezza la busta coordinata per l'ultima!
Qui sembra che la Primavera stia davvero arrivando, anche se stasera fa molto freddo. Spero in qualche raggio di sole anche per te!
Un abbraccio
How beautiful these are Brenda - love the magenta ans gold in the first card, and the amazing blooms in the next two.

All beautiful cards Brenda. The first is so bright and cheerful with the bright Fuchsia colours and very well designed with the flowers. The second looks like a dutch scenery card with the tulips and bicycle and the last is so cute with the little chicken and nice poem. Take care Marlies.
ReplyDelete3 fabulous cards Brenda. Love the colours and the flower on the top one and the other two are so pretty with their spring flowers x
ReplyDeleteWow! A fab post full of beautiful designs but your first card just jumps out of the screen at you, it's a super design and the colour is fab!

Brenda if you aren't a fab colorist, then I'm a man. Gorgeous coloring! Beautiful cards and I went to check out Ruth Hamilton's digis. Very nice, just wish she had a way to sign up for a newsletter or an account or something because I won't remember her, there are so so many digi shops. xoxo
ReplyDeleteBEautiful cards Brenda and I love the nod to the spring blooms on the second and third. Our primroses are just appearing and the daffs have only just opened, particularly late this year despite the warmish weather. Today was the first time I noticed the ponies are starting to moult. Surprise will be clipped quite soon as her cushings means she has a very thick, though not curly, coat x
ReplyDeleteWonderful collection of cards this week. just for a change, I can pick a favourite which is that amazing purple cone flower xx
