Christmas Sweater

Posted on by

TGIFriday! Today I want to show two different ways to use 1 background stamp cards.

First card: Using emboss resist technique. 20141031-01I stamped the background with the Stampendous Christmas Sweater Square Stamp and then heat embossed it in white (Ranger Seaform White) and covered it with red coloured distress inks.

Second card: Watercolor Background Stamping 20141031-02First I inked the Stampendous Christmas Sweater Square Stamp using several distress inks – Fired Brick, Festive Berries, Picked Raspberry, Tea Dye – and then spritzed the inked background stamp with water. I then laid the watercolour paper panel on top of the inked background stamp.

Here is a detailed view: 20141031-03 20141031-04

Oh! personally I love both of them very much lol. So, I decided to send them to ‘Caring Hearts Card Drive‘ in Canada. I am so happy!! 20141031-05

The Card Concept #22 – ThankFall

Posted on by

Happy Wednesday everyone! Are you still enjoying the lovely autumn weather? Here we are again with a new challenge at The Card Concept! Check out the beautiful inspiration picture below:
IP-22So lovely! isn’t it? I love those rustic fall colours!!

And… here is what I came up with:
20141029-01

From this challenge, I can pick any of those 6 different styles as part of the wild card team and I chose ‘Freestyle Collage‘. Well… it could be called CAS card but… Hmm… Anyway, I made watercolour card :D

To create my card, I used second generation stamping technique. Second generation stamping is a great way to watercolour painting. For sentiment I heat embossed on the black cardstock in white and cut using banner die among Sweet Havana Die Cuts and then adhered it to the rustic vase image using dimensional foam tape. To finish it off, I spritzed Studio Calico Mister Huey’s Calico Shine around the flower vase.

20141029-02Ohhhh.. I love Mama Elephant Sweet Havana Stamp Set and watercolouring! I was inspired by Nichol Magouirk‘s beautiful watercolour cards :D
