Hello Friends, How are you? I was lucky to get some good quality time coloring on the airplane…that’s the nice part of long flights. Win win š
The best part of coloring on the fly is you are forced to use the colors that you packed so you come up with some newĀ color combos. Pack colors that you want to try not your favorites … or some of your favs! These sweet flowers are called, “Floral Hello” and everything in the stamp set is lovely.
When I got home it was easy to grab a stencil and some Shabby Shutters ink for a quick background. You may notice that I turned the “Tracks” stencilĀ on the sideĀ toĀ add someĀ pizzaz. I love the large sentiment from SRM. The sentiment is large enough to have some fun with it like adding white dots with my one and only gel pen. SRM hasĀ other large sentiments andĀ you can check them out here.
I hope to make a quick video to show you how easy it is to color these flowers. I did add some glossy accents to the leaves after I put them on my card.
Off to bed and looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Hugs, Kathy

This looks super fantastic Kathy! I love the background too!
Oh my Gosh this is gorgeous! Love the purple/blue and green! Popping with excitement! Love your gel pen on the greeting it looks like Marquee Letters! Can’t wait for the tye dye lesson!
Love the multidirectional way you used the Tracks stencil Kathy! It really changes it and makes it more dynamic. And the white dots on your Thanks look fabulous the way they graduate in size. It’s a fabulous modern look with what’s normally some traditional roses. Really great work.
Kathy, I love your tie-dyed flowers with stencil background today!
Coloring on a long flight made me think of “time flies when you’re having fun”….it’s amazing to me how I totally lose sight of time when I’m creating…sometimes I’ll think I’ve been at it for 30 minutes when in reality I’ve been creating for 2 hours. Love your card. Looking forward to the video. Glad you had a nice trip.
Love the tie dye! Such a fun card!
lovely!
So beautiful Kathy.I love cards like this
WOW!! I love how you colored the flowers and that background is mesmerizing!!! Can’t wait to see the video!! TFS!
Very beautiful Kathy.I can’t wait to watch you make this.Fabulous background. Blessed day
Love the colors you used on the flowers but my favorite thing is the dots on the words. I just love how it looks and have to try it myself soon! Thanks for the inspiration!
So pretty, LOVE that background!
So pretty!
Love the whole design of this card. Love the background, love the sentiment and of course, love the flowers (& purple is my favorite color!). And as always, thank you for the inspiration.
Beautifully colored flowers and a great background. Love the dots you added to the thanks. Really makes a difference. Have a great day!
Stunning flowers!!!
Nice coloring, sweet flowers! My luck I would color WAY outside the lines if I colored on a plane!!!
Love the multiple colors on the roses. Just beautiful.
A delightful card, Kathy. Love the fun colouring of the flowers and the white dots on the sentiment.
I actually managed to do a little colouring at the hospital today, while my husband was having his chemotherapy session (no. 4/8, so we’re nearly halfway there).

I’m glad to hear you are bringing your coloring with you. Coloring is a great distraction and hopefully helps the time go faster. I’m still thinking about you and your husband and sending you my prayers. š
Totally lovely! Jo x
Love the color choice’s Kathy, we are looking at about 5 days of rain so for me that means there is nothing, nawta or anyone that can make me come out of my craft room wooohooo. No contractor’s either. I’m so excited to get some fun on and enjoy the sound of rain hitting our new roof lol.
What a lovely card, I love the multi-colored flowers!!
Bet that coloring on the plane leads to some interesting conversations with your seat mates! That’s not the blue that I was expecting when I saw the markers you used laid out….the pink really changed it to much more of a violet….gorgeous, however it happened!
Very lovely. I love the dots you added to the Thanks. ^_^
How do you color on a plane? If you hit turbulence, don’t you risk ruining everything?
Gorgeous card! Love the background!!! š
Kathy, Love, Love the flowers and the background is beautiful. Pretty amazing what you can do on a airplane girl. You rock.
I love the colors you used and I love that you colored on a plane. I did part of a geometric design for a friend who had a 60’s room in a moving car! She wasn’t old enough to remember the 60’s but she loved them just the same. I managed to stay in the lines and she said she couldn’t believe I colored it in a car and didn’t make a mistake, so it is possible! I will color anywhere including a car, a plane or in a doctors waiting room. As long as I have my colored pencils, markers, and my clip board, I can color anywhere!
BEAUTIFUL card!!!
LOVE the flowers, LOVE the background and WOW – your dotty sentiment is SO COOL!!!
So cute and love the flowers especially!!
