Purple Pumpkin Save the date Stickers

I decided to paint a purple pumpkin yesterday; there was no particular reason that I was aware of. I just knew I wanted it to be purple, and I thought a gold leaf would go well with it, since it was purple.

This design is on many products now, but the most appealing one to me, is how it looks on Wedding Save the date Stickers.

Since I painted the purple pumpkin, I found out that I’m not the only one with such a purple fancy. You can see other purple pumpkin designs by a variety of artists here.

Rose in Lavender, Wedding Save the Date Stickers

When I painted the lavender rose in watercolor, I had no idea what the meaning of lavender was. I just knew I liked the color. For those that like to know the meaning though, I did look it up; the color lavender represents gentleness and elegance. Using watercolor for this particular rose painting, I think that gentleness and elegance does come across. The delicate leaves also seem to be making a perfect presentation.

I’ve added an umbrella to the beach painting, and this time wrote the bride’s and groom’s names across the sand, and a place for their wedding date. The umbrella can be left in, removed, or replaced with your own image.

If you’d like to purchase these stamps with a different color umbrella, just let me know.

Our Wedding Beach scene postage stamps

The painting of the beach scene has been completed and is now ready on ‘Our Wedding’ postage stamps.

For now, I decided to publish the beach scene without an umbrella. I am making the umbrella as a separate painting. The umbrella will be a two color theme. The first one will be white and aqua. Then if anyone would like the umbrella to be different colors, it will be easier to change. Then I will add the umbrella to the beach.

Any of the designs that I’ve painted are ready for you online at www.zazzle.com/CherylsArt*/

New wedding design by CherylsArt, a beach scene

This one is in the works, I started the basecoats while I was working on the Pumpkins in love design. Today, I fine tuned the colors and added dimension. The sky is a pale blue with a touch of white and lavender. The ocean is blue with aqua and gray, and white bluish waves. The sand is a light tan/off white with touches of tan and gray, with smooth wet sand turning into dry sand as you move towards land.

Right now, said painting is drying. The next step I plan to take is to paint a beach umbrella in the sand, two toned, with “Our Wedding” written in the foreground, over the sand.

I also might make it available without an umbrella too. We’ll see when it dries, and you can also let me know here in the comments section. Which do you prefer? – beach umbrella, or no beach umbrella. And if yes to the umbrella, what color(s) would you like it to be?

I was thinking of aqua and white, seems to go with the color scheme already there, but you can let me know what you think if you’d like something different. I’ll be sure to check here before starting the next step.

In the meantime, check out my other wedding designs at www.zazzle.com/CherylsArt*/ under the Product Lines – Wedding.

Thanks.

Pumpkins in Love Halloween Wedding Stamps

Pumpkins, Our Wedding, postage stamps by Cherylsart
More Our wedding Postage

I was making my new lens on Squidoo on Halloween Stamps and decided to add a category for Halloween weddings. When I browsed the Halloween stamps on Zazzle, there didn’t seem to be too many wedding choices. So I decided to make a new one, with pumpkins in love.

I began with a browse of pumpkin images, looking for some with a little bit of lean to them. I wanted them to have a snuggle look as if they were leaning in to one another. Once I found two pumpkins that fit the bill, I did my drawing on a rough draft. Once I polished that up, I added their faces. To the male pumpkin, I gave arched eyebrows.  To the female, I gave slender eyebrows, and gave them both a crooked smile. Their stems are also green as they are still young. Then I enveloped them in a heart shaped pumpkin vine. Hope you enjoy pumpkins in love. Please leave a comment if you would like ‘pumpkins in love’ design on other products too.

Pumpkins in love is available with “Our Wedding” and they can also be customized with your own message. The font style and size can also be changed. Check them out at CherylsArt* on Zazzle.
