Hello crafty friends! Happy STAMPtember®!!
September is, without a doubt, my favourite time of year and I am SUPER excited to be a part of Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® Blog Hop today!! Are you ready for a month long STAMPtember® celebration?! YAY! Let’s dive right in!!
Today I have three watercolour cards to share with you using the brand new exclusive STAMPtember® products! Woot!!
For my first card, I used the Hydrangea Blooms stamp set I designed. I simply stamped the outlined hydrangea image from the set onto the cold press watercolour paper panel using Victorian Velvet and Seedless Preserves Distress inks first. I then stamped the solid hydrangea image over the stamped area with the same colours, brushed them using a wet paint brush for a more subtle look. For the hydrangea cluster, I used Post-It Notes to mask stamped images. For the leaves, I coloured them with Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint Distress inks.
For my second card, I used so adorable Christmas Toys stamp set – It reminded me of my childhood Christmas memories!!
To start, I randomly stamped the images from the Christmas Toys set on the Stitches Rectangle watercolour paper panel using Antique Linen Distress ink, and then coloured them with Peerless watercolors and waterbrush. I coloured the background with Antique Linen Distress ink. Once the panel was dry, I gold heat embossed the edges of the panel, and then mounted it on the Schoolhouse Red card base using double-sided tape. For the sentiment, I white heat embossed it on the Schoolhouse Red card stock, added natural twine and silver jingle bell.
For my last card, I played with the gorgeous Abstract Triangles background stamp. I was inspired by the beautiful fall foliage colours.
To create the card, I stamped the Abstract Triangles Background on an A2 cold press watercolour paper panel using Antique Linen Distress ink, and then watercoloured the background with Peerless watercolors and waterbrush. For the sentiment, I used two word dies ‘Grathful‘ and ‘Autumn Blessings‘. The ‘Grateful’ set has both script and outline dies so we can create various styles with them!

For today’s card, I was totally inspired by my amazingly talented friend May‘s adorable card (Click HERE). To start, I stamped the adorable critters from the Critter Costume Party set on watercolour paper using VersaFine onyx black pigment ink, watercoloured them with Distress markers, and then die cut them with the matching dies. For the circle window panel, I die cut circles from an A2 sized white paper panel using Stitches Circles dies, and then ink blended behind the circles with Distress inks using mini round blending tool: (Red) Festive Berries & Fired Brick / (Yellow) Mustard Seed & Wild Honey / (Blue) Tumbled Glass & Peacock Feathers. For the sentiment, I used the Uplifting Thoughts stamp set.
That’s it for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great weekend!!
