#the100dayproject : 48/100
Posted by Kerry Wills on
this might be the first card that i've made during this challenge with the color swatch where i haven't used every color of ink. i decided to take a slightly different route and so i began with four shades of brown ink and one olive-greeny ink that was similar to the saffron spice. i used distress inks and i blended them together to create my background panel by watercoloring. each card of the four that i made is slightly different and i love that!

day 31 : faq
i get lots of questions at shows and also via social media, so i thought i'd take a quick minute to answer a few of the most popular ones [that i haven't already addressed throughout the month!]

i use a boatload of supplies to create my cards but the most important supply is the stamp set i choose!
i can remember one of the very first rubber stamps i ever got as a young kiddo was of a sunflower. i would stamp it on everything and then color it in with colored pencils, markers and crayons. my small collection expanded with various sets including the lion king and grew from there.
