Hello Friends! Ack we are rounding the corner and it’s DAY 25! My how time flies!
I have a video today showing you my process in creating this card and adding all the little drawn details that I so affectionally love to do.
Mixing companies on your cards always makes your cards more interesting and I get so much joy from making scenes like this. Yes .. stamping and masking does take more time but, not that much more. When masking an image I always use this paper.
This is the card in the video & I wanted to create a busy background to prove that calm and peace can be possible in any situation. Stamping Bella’s calming yoga girl called, “Yoga Bella” was the perfect image for me. I added a bunch of Three Room Studio’s different elements to create my hectic background. (see the supply list to see the stamp sets)
Have you heard of Sandy Boone? She is one of my coloring idols and she’s the creator of Three Room Studio stamps and not only is she an amazing colorist but, she’s super sweet, humble and an awesome person too. (You must check out her IG feed …wow wee! I was lucky to meet her in Canada during on of my Road Trips!
These two cards will be up on the Stamping Bella blog and a big shout out to Emily from Stamping Bella for being so cool and letting me create freely using Sandy’s stamps with Stamping Bella’s stamps.
Have a great day and the OLYMPICS start tonight!! Coloring and Olympics I can NOT wait. See you tomorrow! Hugs, Kathy

Hi Kathy, I can so relate to this card!! Before we finally settled down in our new home, we moved 3 times in 18 months!! And we moved my parents twice during that time!! Definitely need to take a breath in between the chaos of moving. Your coloring and mix of stamps is amazing! Enjoy watching the Olympics!!
Eileen R says
awesome card, love the scenes!

Just lovely coloring I’m amazed at how well you can built the complete screen and it just glows off the paper. Really enjoy seeing what you can do – it does inspire me.
Karen Campbell says
Awesome….Your work is great. Enjoyed watching how you embelished eveything.
Sue D says
Love all the details.
Teresa Doyle says
These are both fantastic cards Kathy, I love it when I am able to mix stamps up from different companies, makes buying them even more worth while. I hadn’t heard of Sandy until you told us about her a year ago. Is she Canadian? I love Three Room Studio’s designs.
Fikreta says
those are stunning!
Dana M says

Billie A says
It’s so wonderful seeing the images come to life. I love the color choices and all the images to create the scene. The added details you give really finish the scene.
Marianne says
Love to see how you are mixing and matching stamps to create your fun scenes, Kathy., even though it’s not something I would do myself. Maybe that’s what makes it so fun to watch lol.

I really enjoy watching your (water)coloring process, Kathy! And your comments make me think that I can do this! So inspiring!
Carole Strawn says
So glad that you use a variety of mediums in your coloring videos. I have the Tombows and most everyone else only uses Copics in their coloring. So good to get ideas on how to watercolor better using the Tombow markers. Both of these cards are amazing. Such fun watching you color and especially love all the little extra that you add.
Kathy H says
I love your idea behind this card Kathy! You are wonderful!
