Cards made with ADORNit Coloring Books

Hi there! I’m back with ADORNit  and today I’m sharing a set of cards that I made using some illustrations included on the ADORNit Art Play Coloring Books. I am featuring the Art Play Coloring Book Girlfriends created by Lyndsay Ostrom and the Art Play Coloring Book Gnome Life created by Carolee McMullin.

I love these Art Play Coloring Books for many reasons, some of them are very simple. First because my best relaxing time is when I am painting or learning painting and with the ADORNit you don’t need to be an artist to going into the Art Play Coloring Books. Second, because it have the perfect size to carry on my purse, and when I have the opportunity to take it out of my purse and start coloring I do it without a lot of preparations. Third, because they have the perfect size to create cards that is my real passion and this set of cards is the perfect sample of that.

I made this card using a combination of Premium Colored Pencils and Watercolor Pencils both from Leisure Arts. They work perfectly with the watercolor paper of the pages of Art Play Coloring Books. However ADORNit has their own line of coloring supplies that you can use to create.

On this card I colored the image of the ladybug girl and the flowers with Premium Colored Pencils and the grass and the background with Watercolor Pencils and a paint brush or aquapainter. I separated the illustration from the coloring book after finished the painting process. I resized it to use like a layer over my card base. It is real red card stock and I pasted a piece of Rhapsody Tickertape paper to give more contrast to my image.

Before to assemble my card, I pasted a large piece of white foam behind of the ADORNit illustration to give more dimension to my card. This girl is part of the Girlfriends Art Play Coloring Book.

My second card is the finish project that I made with one illustration from the Gnome Life Coloring Book that I painted  during the ADORNit Coloring Party a few days ago. It was a party organized by ADORNit girls to share with us tips and good news to be a master painter. If you want to know more about this just click HERE.

I painted this illustration using Watercolor Pencils and a paint brush or aquapainter. Then I fussy cut the jar with my scissors and decorated with some loops of red and white bakers twine and with one of the stickers included on the Family Time Stickers by ADORNit. If you aren’t familiar with these, go HERE and see the entire collections of stickers. They coordinate with the papers, with the fabrics and work wonderful when you are creating.

To create the base of this card, I used Early Espresso card stock and a piece of Rhapsody Tickertape paper, I decorated the border with other design that is a sticker border from the Family Time Stickers. After cut the jar, I pasted behind of it a set of dimensionals or double sided foam tape to paste it over the decorated card base.

My last card was made with another illustration from the Girlfriends Art Play Coloring Book. This is a very sweet girl that I painted with a combination of Premium Colored Pencils and Watercolor Pencils from Leisure Arts. If you are asking which part is painted with what, let me tell you that in this illustration I only used the Premier Colored Pencils to paint the skin, the rest of the image was made with watercolors.

To assemble this card I used a big scallop border from the Rhapsody Stickers that I added over the Eggplant card base. Also I added some drops of  Morning Dew Novu Cristal Drops.

I hope my project inspires you to use the ADORNit Art Play Coloring Books, They are fun, relaxing and the possibilities to create with the illustrations are unlimited.
