Looking back on the art I’ve been making for the past few months I’ve done quite a bit of digital work. I started really delving into Procreate when we went on Vacation earlier this year, and I haven’t stopped exploring the possibilities since. While planning for our vacation in late February and early March of his year I opted to take only my camera and iPad. No knitting, no sketch book, no art supplies. This was the first time I’d ever taken only my iPad, with the intent of creating art while on a vacation. I had a plan to limit my supplies and challenge myself to only using procreate. My plan worked, I learned a lot about procreate and I enjoyed to process. The biggest thing I learned was how very freeing being able to sit on the couch or the porch at night with just an iPad and a pencil was. There was no figuring out where to put supplies, or how to juggle a sketchbook on my lap, or being confined to the table. The other bonus ...
Day 30 of The 30 Day Coloring Challenge. I got lazy, but it was coloring none the less. I did some heat embossing on Canson Watercolor paper using a Carta Bella background stamp, that is now retired.
I concentrated the color on the top half of the panel and then used a watercolor brush to blend the color out to a fade at the bottom. Then you guessed it, I got out one of the stitched rectangle dies and cut out the panel for my card front.
I used the That is All stamp set from WPlus9. I used a few of the small sentiments from this set - Miss Your Smile, Thank You, Love You, Get Well. I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Oxny Black ink in the lower right corner of the card base.
I popped the panel up using copious amounts of foam tape and mounted it in the center of each card.
