Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you have had a wonderful festive break and a fantastic beginning to 2015.
It is nice to be back again! I am so honoured to be a part of The Card Concept as a permanent member. Thanks Lesley, for getting me involved in this Oh-So-Talented team!! From now on, I will share my card with you in the Mixed Media category :D
Wow! One year of challenges already! This week we are hoping this picture inspires you to celebrate our One Year Anniversary with us! Feel free to use any of the styles of our team or better yet, share you own style by combining one or more of the styles. We want you to have fun and make a card in a style that you feel good about!
Here is what I came up with:
Whenever I see the beautiful flowers, I can’t resist using watercolour mediums lol!
My card today, I used Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, Distress inks as my watercolour mediums. I positioned all I want to use stamps from Wplus9 Coming Up Roses Stamps on the watercolour paper first. I then stamped using water based distress inks and coloured them using watercolour brush. For sentiment, I stamped ‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY’ among Altenew Label Love Stamps using VersaFine Pigment ink Onyx Black and then heat embossed it in clear. White threads under the sentiment banner to finish the card.

Let’s see what the rest of the design team has come up with:

I stamped the sentiment on the middle of the white paper panel in VersaFine ink Onyx Black and heat embossed it in clear. I then heat embossed the largest gem images in white around the sentiment area. Lastly I sponged onto the panel in Distress ink Picked Raspberry using mini blending tool and spritzed water here and there. Some sequins were the finishing touches.
Wearing a large diamond necklace is the envy of all women lol! I love black and yellow colour combo and of course, gold glitter as well!
I love playing with sequins. Metallic coloured sequins make my card shine brighter than real diamond :D
Absolutely amazing!!!
To create this card, I chose the largest flower stamp from Penny Black Floral Applique Stamp Set as a focal point and Stampington & Company Come Hither Stamp as well at first. I then stamped outline flower in Onyx Black pigment ink and the letters in Vintage Sepia pigment ink. Once dry, I painted whole panel include flower using several distress inks and then inked the edges with Vintage Photo & Black Soot Distress ink on an Ink Blending tool. Besides it, I applied white acrylic paint to the sides of red pattern paper panel till I had the look I wanted and also inked the edges with Black Soot Distress ink. Lastly, I added ink splatters for finishing touch.
For sentiment, I used Wplus9 Hand Lettered Hello Die.
Woo-hoo!! I really love this vintage look lol!



Oh! I didn’t forget to coat the roses using glossy accent :D
YAY!! Watercolour card here! I am seriously Water-Colour-Lover :D Basically, I stamped on the watercolour paper using Wplus9 Stamps Coming Up Roses Stamp Set and then painted it using several distress inks.
I had SO so so much fun with them.
Unfortunately I didn’t have the featured background stamps but it was totally OK! I used beautiful Hero Arts Everything Flowers Stamp instead of them :D
Phew~~ I finished one of my homework of Day 1. By the way, I love Wplus9 Hand Lettered Hello Die!!
