Hi there,
It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts here with you today. These days are quite stressful with all the things that are going on, so I decided to relax with some no line coloring.
Take a look at the card that I made:
First, I stamped out the image of the flowers included in the You’re so sweet stamp set. I used watercolored paper and light grey ink, to be able to see the lines nicely. Then, I used my watercolor markers and started coloring the image using red for petals and green for leaves. You can see that the ink with which I stamped the image absorbed some of the color, so the stamped lines are seen in the color of the marker.
When the image was colored in and dry, I used a brush and some green ink to make some splotches in the backround of the flowers. I wanted to add another color, so I used light grey and made some more spashes.
Once everything was dry again, I used the biggerst heart die from the Fancy scallop hearts and die cut the image out. I put the flowers a bit off center – towards the left and cut away the right part of the heart.
For the background, I used kraft paper that goes nicely with the colors used for the coloring. It seemed a bit empty to me, so I went ahead and added some stenceling in the background for which I used light brown ink and Ink splash stencil. Of course I ink blended everything with Studio Katia brushes that are super easy to use!
The last thing I added was the sentiment and I went with a simple one that reads ‘hello’ and can be found in Floral wreath stamp set.
I glued everything together using Studio Katia glue and some foam tape for the sentiment and the card was all finished.
Thank you so much for joining me!

This is gorgeous, Kaja, wow! I really want to try the no-line colouring – this is so stunning! Makes me want to take those sweet peas out right now, too 🙂
This is lovely. You’ve done a beautiful job on the flowers. I just can’t get the hang of watercoloring. I’m still trying.
