Took a couple of days off this week to recharge - mental break helps a lot! 👍🏻 While I enjoyed stay-home break, I finished swatching all of #danielsmithwatercolors - now I’ll build my own palette from these and start doing some watercolor with them. Seeing all these made me really happy 🥰🥰 Swatching watercolors are one of my fav ways to distress. What creative projects are you working on this weekend?? #watercolorswatches #watercolor #danielsmithwatercolor #danielsmithartistsmaterials #colorswatches

I decided to do something new and challenging during this #stayathome time. Took a beginner calligraphy class by @piecescalligraphy and I cant believe how fast 90min went by!! 😍😍 I have a lot of practice to do but really enjoyed learning. These are some of the things we did. My p’s are pretty horrible 😂😂 Cant wait for the next session!

Happy Monday everyone- 💕💕 I was itching for a change so the other day I moved things around a bit in my studio. (This happens more often than not 😂) Even just a tiny bit of change can bring a big difference and give a fresh feel to your daily norm. Controlling what we can and not losing hope 🙏🏻 I wish you a fabulous and lovely week ahead 💙

The process of swatching any coloring medium is very therapeutic to me. 🥰😍 And it becomes a great reference to understand colors! 🎨

These colors from #altenewartistswatercolor are super vibrant and transparent. So different from their #altenew36watercolorpanset which is creamy and opaque. I love when watercolors react differently so that we can enjoy various effects 😍

I got hooked into alcohol inks a while ago but finally got around creating something recently. Love the feeling of flowyness and the freedom these inks have. ❤️ This was actually made a couple of weeks ago, before the whole alcohol shortage thing happened 😅 I think the timing of choosing the medium to have fun was off, because I really enjoyed creating this piece and want to do more!! 🙈 For now, I’ll stick to other mediums until the shortage of rubbing alcohols is solved.

I used @altenewllc artist marker refills/alcohol inks for the colors, and #pinatacolors for the rich gold to create a stream.

Blue, gary, flower, foliage, and great sentiments. Just a few simple things that make awesome cards for someone that needs a bit of encouragement and positive vibes 💕 #scrapsandstamps #handmadecards #altenew #altenewwatercolorroses

Classy, trendy, and modern. 😍 The simply layered vase image is a great foundation for a gold embossed flower and foliage to stand out and shine. I love how easy it is to create something beautiful that catches your eye with just a couple steps of stamping 💕 #linkinprofile #scrapsandstamps #altenew #altenewmodernvases #altenewvasefillers

I spent a good 30min or so coloring in this beautiful outlined image with #altenewmetallicwatercolor that was released today 🎉 The colors and the intensity of them are oh so beautiful 😍 It felt so good to just focus on coloring and getting some quiet time for myself. 💕💕 #scrapsandstamps #altenew #metallicwatercolor #watercolor #watercolorpainting #altenewbookclubstamp

Happy Saturday 💕 Im spending this weekend in my studio/office going through everything and sorting and purging. It is official, I’m moving in a month to the other end of the state! 😱😱 I have been blessed to enjoy this large space as my studio and office for the past few years. Now I have to shrink it down to 1/3 to fit into the new place we will be living in. I have no idea how I’m going to do it, but definitely will have to take a lot less products when moving.
Change is scary, but can also be good. Im excited and scared for the next chapter of our lives 💙

Im late in posting this, but made a card for the first time in a while. Got to play with one of my new fav stamps from #altenew 💕💕💕
I really didnt expect this year to be so crazy, but life has been throwing me lots of new challenges to go through. 😱 But even for 5-10min, creating a card felt very good. It always reminds me why I love this hobby. 💙 I don’t know when my life will settle this year, but I so much look forward to when I can spend hours just on my crafting desk immersing myself in inks, stamps, and papers. 🤞🏻🤞🏻#scrapsandstamps #cardmaking #altenewroseblossom
