CIP - Art Journal - Deep Blue Sea

Hi CIP followers!  I'm sharing an art journal page with you today where I've used lots of shimmery CIP colors with my doodles.  The Rose Quartz (between lettering), Sea Foam (between lettering), and Sapphire (background) have all been thinned with water for more of a water color effect.  The other paints I've used in this project are Blue Ice, Copper, Antique Copper, Antique Gold, Buttercup and Garnet.  Each of these items can be found in the Creative Inspirations Paint store.
Here is a better look at the Buttercup tail and background colors:

CIP - Masculine Notebook

Hi CIP followers!  I have a little notebook for you today, and I've used some pretty CIP colors to add lots of shimmer to this project (and the little TGF image I used).  The CI paints are Evergreen, Green Olive, Mango, and Onyx.  The Mango was used on the punched piece, and I also made a wash by adding water to a few drops of paint and brushing it over the starred background paper.  Each of these items can be found in the Creative Inspirations Paint store.

Guest Post for Little Miss Muffet

I was lucky enough to win this beautiful rubber stamp from Little Miss Muffet stamps, and was asked to participate in their paper piecing challenge!  This little gal is La Jeune Fille à l'Eventail, and I've used a mix of alcohol markers, distress markers, and water color pencils to color her and add some shading to the paper pieced areas (her hat, upper ruffle/center of bodice, lower ruffle on the shirt, and bottom of the umbrella are paper pieced in a golden variegated yellow, and the bottom of dress and fan are in a lighter polka dot yellow).
