Faber-Castell, Day 2

You may have spied today's card on the Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft blog last week, but I thought I would share it here, too. :) It features the Faber-Castell Art GRIP Aquarelle watercolor pencils with one of my favorite new stamps from Hero Arts.



And here's a video showing the creation of this card from start to finish.


Thanks so much for watching!

this is a beautiful card. Questions -- why did you color over the purple flowers twice at the beginning?? Were you laying down a layer of color?? It looked like you deleted it a few times ... did you or what?? and What kind of paper did you use?? Regular cardstock or watercolor paper??? thanks!

Wow! How cool! Now if only I could do that in regular life motion:) What were you doing the first time? You wiped color off with a baby wipe, was that a mistake or were you shading or something? Couldn't tell by the video. Thanks, Jill for sharing your talent with us!

I loved finally meeting you in person, sweet Jill! I wish we would have had more time to chat. I saw this sample in the Faber-Castell booth, and I can say it's even more gorgeous in person. Such an amazing talent you have...

Hi, I’m curious what kind of powder did you color over? Is it some sort of embossing powder I read the comments but I don’t see an awnswer, thank you!
