Welcome to day 3 of the STAMPlorations Summer Release. Today's set is so ... perfect. Meet Big Dreamer. I absolutely L♥VE it.
Zig clean color brush markers
Even added a smidgen of pearlescent watercolor on top for some sparkly shimmer. I truly love the thickness of the outlines on this set and that sentiment is a total winner in its perfect imperfection.
Stampendous Moonstone embossing powder
Prismacolor colored pencils
Just look at the smoothness of those blended blues? The waxy nature of Prismacolors makes this possible.
Have you tried colored pencils on dark cardstock yet? I'd love to hear about your experience.
Shery's offering prizes as always. Leave comments by July 23 on all the release posts this week on the STAMP blog and the DT blogs to be in the running - there's a $25 GC and also your choice of a stamp set and word die from this release up for grabs!

SUPER gorgeous, Maria! I love the prismacolor effect on the darker paper. It is delicious!
Both your cards are beautiful! Thank you for inspiring us!
Sigh ... CAS perfection, Maria ... those shimmery single stems frame the sentiment beautifully. LOVE your prismacolouring on the elegant grey cardstock ... those blues positively glow! Thanks so much for playing along with us once more at Time Out! Hugs, Anita :)

These are both super designs ad a great way to show how to use the same set in different ways. Love the fresh background of the first card and the soft colouring. Then the grey base with this embossing looks amazing. Great use of these pencils, it looks like water colouring. Great to see you again at Time Out, we have loved your cards x
Pretty cards!
Your cards are so beautiful and I love the wonderful colors you used. I love the CAS look of them.
Oh, these are BEAUTIFUL!
Beautiful cards, beautiful coloring, beautiful new set that I must have! lol
Love the flowers, and their colors, around the sentiment! Beautiful!

I love these designs.
Beautiful CAS flower design with your Zigs watercoloring, Maria. As you know, I am very partial to CAS designs.
Yes, I have used prisma color pencils for coloring, but used kraft cardstock and gamsol to help blend the colors and loved the results. TFS your beauty and reminding me how wonderful prisma color pencils look on colored cardstock. I LOVE Shery's new stamp set and your beautiful creations. Hugs...
