This is my second card for the blog hop.
The first thing I
did was stamp my “Hello” with Versamark and emboss it with white embossing
powder. Then I did the background using Distress Inks Picked Raspberry, Broken
China, Dusty Concorde, Mowed Lawn, and Wild Honey. I stamped them onto my craft
mat and sprayed them with water to make a wash. Then, using a wet foam brush, I
applied each color. I rinsed my brush out every time. I wiped off the image
with a paper towel and dried it with the heat tool. I applied clear Dew Drops
and applied them to the front. I applied Shabby White Frantage to the corners.
For the inside I did the same technique only I applied it a
little differently. I do not have very many friendship stamps to put on the inside of my cards. I got some
brand new stamps and dies from Our Daily Bread Designs. I decided to use one of
the sayings from the June release called Sunshine Blessings so I added the sun
that came in the set also. I forgot to use Archival Ink and accidently used
Momento Black to stamp the sun. When I colored it with the wet foam brush mixed
with Wild Honey it faded a little. I refreshed the lines and face with a black
Glaze pen and cut it out with scissors.

ReplyDeleteLove the 'hello' stamp! Beautiful background
ReplyDeleteHi Annette,
ReplyDeleteLove your water coloring! I am so drawn to watercolor, but am so afraid to do it. Abstract and loose design looks so amazing when others do it...lol
Thanks for the inspiration!
