Hi Stampers!
I wanted to create
one more card this weekend and the HSSTC110 Watercolor Technique Challenge has
been on my mind all week and I decided to combine this technique with the FMS27 Freshly Made Sketch.
Again, both sites
provide so much inspiration between their wonderful Design Teams and the entries
each week- if you have a chance, stop by and see for yourselves!
To create this
card:
De-static a piece
of Watercolor Paper and stamp the images from Nature Walk with Versamark™
ink. Apply Stampin’ Emboss® Black Embossing
Powder, heat with the Heat Tool. Once the embossing
powder has cooled, color the images with Watercolor Pencils and the Aqua
Painter.
Punch the egg image with the 1
¼” and 1 3/8” Circle Punches, use the 1 ¼” Punch for the bee and “fussy cut”
the bird image.

| Close-Up of Embossing and Background Stamp |
Ink the background
stamp, En Français with Bashful Blue Classic Ink and stamp onto Bashful Blue
cardstock. Direct apply Bashful Blue Classic Ink onto the
smooth interior side of the Vintage Wallpaper Textured Impressions™ Embossing
Folder and emboss with the Big Shot™.
Huff onto the ink
on the background stamp and stamp the punched pieces. Mount the circles onto Basic Black
cardstock.
Crimp a strip of
Basic Black cardstock using the Crimper Tool.
Apply the 5/8” Black Satin Ribbon bow over the embossed background layer,
add the crimped layer of Basic Black cardstock, adhere the strip of blue Satin
Ribbon, mount the circle images with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the sentiment to
finish off the card.
