Today I have a pretty card to show you that is made with Lisa Johnson's Remember stamp set from Papertrey Ink. In this first photo I have masked three colored poppies, leaving the swirly designs unmasked. The beautiful red is Pure Poppy ink from Papertrey, a beautiful deep red color.
Next, I used my Copic Airbrush System to airbrush blue and purple tones over my poppies, keeping the darkest tones right next to the outline of the poppy flowers.
Here's the magic, peel off the masks to reveal the beautiful blooming poppies!
Here they are in full color. Lisa did a fabulous job on this set, tons of details!
Here's more magic! I used my Copic Colorless Blender, which is really well inked, and made dots all over the airbrushed portions. If you want to make lighter dots, leave the tip of the Colorless Blender on the paper for just a bit longer.
And here's my finished card, be sure to zoom in to see the beautiful speckled effects. I finished my card off with white and Pure Poppy PTI cardstock, some PTI satin polka dot ribbon and a Spellbinder's Ribbon Tag Die with the sentiment *Thank You* stamped on from the Remember set.
Check out this view below, I added Ranger Glossy Accents to the poppy centers for a finishing touch. Hope you enjoy!!

Incredibly beautiful!! Wow!!!
Hi Michelle! This is fabulous! I would have never thought to use the blue and purple, but it looks amazing! Love it! And, since I was gone for the weekend I was doing serious speed reading in the google reader, leaving very few comments. I wanted to congratulate you on your move up with the PTI DT! You deserve it. You do such a great job with creating different kinds of things and then sharing your ideas with all of us.
Gorgeous card. You make it look effortless which is a sign of a true artist. Thank you for sharing.
You put me over the top, I need an airbrush system. Congrats on the DT too!

I have been checking out your cards for some time - looking for ideas and enjoying your talents. However, your cards are SO out of my league and such beautiful little works of art that I probably couldn't reproduce them. And I don't think I would want to give them away if I could! I just had to come out of lurking to say your talent is amazing.
so colorful! :)
Congrats on DT! Great card too!!!

Beautiful card, Mish, and congrats on the promotion!!
Beautiful card Michelle! I just love that set... it's on my wishlist. I did get the Spellbinder's Ribbon Tag Trio on my last order and wondered if these work with the Cuttlebug? Of course, I wondered this after purchasing them. :0) What system do you use with yours?
Oh, and congratulations on your bump up to senior design team member!! You deserve it and you make a wonderful addition to the PTI team.
