color me happy! (Ellen Hutson)

Hi there!

I have a fun little card to share with you today, using products you can find in the Ellen Hutson store!

I stamped, colored and die-cut the little girl and her easel from Neat and Tangled's Paint Night. I then stamped the landscape artwork image into the easel, and set them into a frame (from Lawn Fawn's Shadow Box Card Ocean Add-On.)

For the sentiment, instead of going with one in the Paint Night set, I reached for EH's Totally Random Sayings Vol. 2! I split the sentiment into 2 parts, putting the smaller script onto a simple banner flag and grounding the cute images with the larger block font.



To add a playful touch, I matted everything onto a sheet from Lawn Fawn's Really Rainbow collection.

I hope you like it!

Have a colorful day! (Neat and Tangled)

Hi there!

This is my second post of the day - if you're looking for Lawn Fawn's chubby manatees, scroll down!

I have a sweet card to share, using a set from the newest Neat and Tangled release, Paint Night.

I did some primary-colored cards using this set for the release week - like THIS ONE, so I wanted to do something more soft and girly for this card.

Instead of using one of the images meant to fit into the canvas, I used copic markers to draw stripes in soft rainbow colors and did my best to blend them together.



The girl's apron was colored a soft pink, and I drew in a "paint line" onto the tip of the paintbrush and colored the tip blue. The paint splashes give some movement to the images.

I stamped the greeting onto the easel, and finished off the card with a fun patterned paper.

I hope you like it! Thanks for stopping by!

Paint Night! (Neat and Tangled release week)

Hi there!

I'm really excited to show off the first of my art-themed sets for the month, Paint Night. It features a couple of artists, an easel with a few different artwork options, and some super cute sentiments!

I made 2 cards for today, so that I could make sure to show off both girls.  My first card features the cutie with the 2 buns holding up her sketch pad:



I popped her ginger-haired friend into the pad, and added the sentiment to the left. I used the paint swish image (seriously? my mind is blank right now to call it anything else) underneath and adhered a tiny heart to sweeten the card even more.



In case you're wondering, that polka dot coverplate is a sneak peek of something coming to Lawn Fawn later this week! yay!

My next card features a couple of extra artists - you'll meet them later in the week!



I colored the sentiment letters in colors to match the rainbow-striped background paper and added the artists to fill the frame.



The landscape image is my favorite - it looks so cute popped into the easel's canvas! The girl holding the paintbrush from this set is joined by 2 other cuties holding huge tubes of paint. I don't usually draw 2 stamp sets that coordinate together, but one art-themed set didn't seem like enough!

I hope you like what I created for you! There's more to see on the NT blog this morning - click!
