Watercoloring With Dana

 Hey peeps it's Dana here with Your Daily Dose of Inspiration.  Water coloring seems to be making a serious comeback in the card making arena these days.  I have even taken the a class and jumped right back into a technique I had not used in some time.

 Water coloring is one of those techniques that seems to be fool proof.  You can truly make this technique your own by trying different brands of paper and ink.  Check out my blog post for a little bit of inspiration to get you started in the world of water coloring. 

Happy crafting~

Party Time Tuesdays PTT#16 Sketchy Tuesdays

Sketch by our "In House" sketch artist: Stacy Koo

Good morning crafters!!  Today is Sketchy Tuesdays!  Above you will find this amazing sketch by Stacy.  All of your Party Planners have used it to feature our sponsor, Kenny K's images and created a child's birthday card.  For this challenge we would like to see what you can create with this fun sketch.  Our winner will receive an image from our month long sponsor Kenny K.

Here is a little bit about Kenny:

I wielded a mean crayon in my early days growing up in the Bronx, but made the quantum leap to the Mac at my first art studio job in 1990, and have been working as a digital artist ever since. My previous work experience includes seven years in consumer and pharmaceutical ad agencies as a photo retoucher and Mac production artist, a season at MTV Animation, and many, many freelance illustration and Flash animation jobs. These days when I'm not beating the hell out of my bass with the rest of the hooligans in my bands Almost Famous and Air Dogs, I'm hard at work here at my home art studio in Pearl River, NY

Here are the Party Planners fun Children's Birthday Cards:
