Hi Friends!!
It’s time for the new
Just Us Girls #317 “One Layer” Challenge and I decided to create a quick
Christmas card using Heat Embossing along with Watercolor.
This is my last challenge as a Guest Designer for October and I have truly loved designing with these talented ladies :-)
I hope you will have
a chance to check out the rest of the fabulous Just Us Girls Design Teamprojects, pull out your supplies and join in on the fun!
It was a bit difficult to photograph this card since the panel seems to warp a bit with the watercoloring but it is flatter IRL :-) |
To create this card:
Score a 4.25” x 11”
piece of Naturals White cardstock and de-static the front panel using the
Embossing Buddy®, stamp the poinsettia and leaf images from the retired set,
Joyful Christmas using Versamark™ Ink, apply Stampin’ Emboss White Embossing
Powder and heat set with the Heat Tool.
Color using an
AquaPainter™ with Cherry Cobbler and Mossy Meadow Classic Ink. Add additional color using the same colors in
Stampin’ Write Markers- spritz with water and allow the colors to run a bit.
Carefully dry the
panel with the Heat Tool and once dried, use the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Write markers to color the center.
Here is a straight frontal view- again the curve of the lens seems to accentuate the paper curve from the watercoloring :-) |
Stamp the sentiment
from the retired set, Christmas Blessings using Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and add
splatters using Gorgeous Grunge with Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink as well.
Quick and easy- perfect for Christmas!
