Birthday Lilies Card

Hello everyone! I’m back with another card video using some Zig watercolor markers. This was the perfect medium to capture the vibrant color of these lilies. I have lilies growing along the borders of my home and I took a closer look at them before I started coloring them.

However, first I heat embossed my lily images with VersaMark ink and white embossing powder.

Heat embossed images are a lot of fun to paint. The raised edges contains the paint and allows for quick and fun coloring.

With the Zig markers you get an immediate pop of vibrant color. I used a water brush to soften out the color along the ends of the flowers and to blend the green centers of the lilies into the orange and yellow.

I used the coordinating dies to cut out my lilies. The dies leave a crisp white border around the flowers.

I raised up the lilies on mounting squares to add some dimension. I also added some sparkle with my clear Spectrum Noir glitter pen over the lilies and some yellow sequins scattered around the card.

You can watch the video of how this card came together here or on my YouTube Channel.

Thanks for visiting! I hope you all have a wonderful week!
