| Title card for 2019 |
 |
| I used an old calendar picture of the Tantanoola cottage gardens for the background. Drew a picket fence, complete with letter box and gate on plain paper, then used a stanley knife for cutting out. |
 |
| Lyric from the Peppermint twist song painted onto card |
 |
| I achieved this fabulous colour by finely slicing a beetroot and dragging it across the card. Then grating the beetroot to make the pattern. |
 |
| Watercolour paint. I splotched on some runny paint on the top half of the card, then folded it to make a reflected impression. |
 |
| Fine sharpie and red texta. |
 |
| There's a palette of autumn leaves in the garden. I picked some and drew them in 6B pencil onto autumny coloured paint chips, then glued to index card. |
 |
| Watercolour paint. I used black for 'cherry baby', then wiped the paint off so it faded. I found some of the kids stencils among the mess that is their play shelves and added the cherries. |
What a great job - you've made some lovely cards. I like the reflection in watercolour. It's lovely!
ReplyDeleteDon't you love what ICAD brings out in us? Some ideas that we may never have thought of. Love seeing your cards. A part of me still wants to follow prompts but the other part wants to go down the different media path I chose. But being ICAD I can always change my mind!! Denyse
