If your looking for the Make It Colourful Blog Hop, please scroll down one post.
It's challenge time at Crafts and Me and it was my turn to choose and as usual I like to make it easy and I have chosen my favourite theme of FLOWERS. As well as my challenge card I have a little cloud tutorial for you. So grab a coffee and sit back and relax......
Ingredients:-
Image by Hannah Lynn "Gardening Girl Dawn" from Crafts and Me
Papers & Lace by Websters
Lasercut Chipboard Fourish, Dragonflies and Filagree Centre by Make It Crafty
Magnolia Doohickey Grass Die
Doily and Flowers from stash
Now onto the tutorial...........
Firstly what I will say is that if you look at the clouds in the sky, they change everyday and are so random that you can't get this wrong as there is no right way or wrong way of doing it. If you don't feel confident then stamp your image but don't colour it and practice drawing the clouds. I'm not the best at tutorials so if you want to see how this is done in Youtube hop on over to the fabulous Annika Ryan from Another Messy Crafter, who demo's this brilliantly.
You will need B91, B000, C1, C00 and your colourless blender and of course your image. I have chosen "Gardening Girl Dawn" by Hannah Lynn from Crafts and Me.
Then I added the B000
Then I added some C1. Think of this as your shadows.
Then I go in with the C00 and blend
Then I use the colourless blender pen to blend all the colours together, which tones down the colours and gives you subtle clouds.
I hope you will experiment, you can add some B00 to make your clouds bluer or add some oranges, reds and yellows and create a sunset.
Whatever you decide, have fun and hope to see you over at the Crafts and Me Challenge Blog with lots of flowers.
