Hope you’ve been enjoying the 3rd Anniversary Release new product reveals and inspirations from our team. 🙂 I am so in love with our entire new product collection and it was a tough choice to make, but I decided to go with our new Riotous Wildflower stamp from Day 1 and The Most Interesting Cardmaker stamp set from the Day 2 for today’s project. This stamp is a large 6×6 clear stamp and I used the entire image by splitting it into 2 cards.

Here’s the 1st card!

Ton_Riotous_FE1.jpg

I started off by stamping the Riotous Wildflower on a Bristol Smooth cardstock and heat embossing in our Rose Gold embossing powder. I colored the entire panel with Scarlet Red, Deep Red, and Persian Green Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, blending out the pigment with water brush.

Ton_Riotous_CE1

When the panel was completely dry, I cut it down to 4″x5.5″ inch panel and set the rest of the panel for the 2nd card. I swiped Versamark ink all around the edge and heat embossed with Rose Gold embossing powder for a more finished look. I heat embossed (also in Rose Gold) the sentiment from The Most Interesting Cardmaker stamp set on a strip of vellum and adhered it around the panel. I popped up the panel on the kraft card base with foam tape and finished off the card by adding some sequins from our new Rose Champagne Sparkle Couture Mix.

Ton_Riotous_CE2

 

Here’s the 2nd card I created using the left over piece from the 1st card!

Ton_WildflowerBold_FE1

To start off, I stamped the sentiment from the older set The New Pretty stamp set multiple times on left side of a kraft cardstock in Versamark. I heat embossed it with Rose Gold embossing powder and die cut the panel using the largest die from the Large Double Stitched Rectangle Dies and adhered it on a A2 kraft cardstock.

Ton_WildflowerBol_CE1

Next I adhered Burnished Rose Gold Foil tape on the left side of the card and popped up the left over watercolor piece from the 1st card. I gave the watercolor piece stitched detail all around using the same die. I dressed up the card with some rose gold sequins from the Rose Champagne Sparkle Couture Mix and the card was complete!

For today’s 1st card, I’m showcasing our new Sweet Folk Hummingbird stamp set. I’m so in love how these tulips are illustrated. As soon as I saw this stamp set, gold & purple popped into my head!

Here’s the card!

Ton_Hummingbird_FE1

I started off by stamping both the tulips and the hummingbird from our new Sweet Folk Hummingbird stamp set on a watercolor cardstock and heat embossing it in gold. I colored it with Color Burst powders. I used Orchid, Violet, Peony, Lemon Yellow, Sap Green, and Lime Green. I fussy cut (I didn’t have the Coordinating Dies at the moment) the humming bird and set it aside and die cut the tulip panel with the largest die from the Large Double Stitched Rectangle Dies. I splattered diluted Orchid & Violet Color Burst all over the panel, let it dry completely, and ink blended Iris Blooms Dye and Soft Amethyst Dye ink.

Ton_Hummingbird_CE1

I stamped the sentiment in Plum Wine Dye ink and adhered the on the white A2 cardstock. I popped up the watercolored hummingbird on the card with foam tape and finished the card off by adhering Triple Purple Crown Sequins, Glass Slippers Sequins, and our new Pink Cosmo Twist Couture Mix.

Ton_Hummingbird_CE2

 

For the 2nd card, I created a fun shaker card using our new Smooched Stamp set and XOXO Mini stamp set. Let’s take a look! 🙂

Ton_Smooched_FE1

I started the card by stamping the lip images from the Smooched Stamp set on a smooth white cardstocks in Rose Quartz Dye, Soft Garnet Dye, Red Sangria Hybrid, and Valentine Red Dye ink. I trimmed the panel down slightly smaller than A2 size and die cut a window with the 2nd smallest die from our Large Double Stitched Rectangle Dies.

Ton_Smooched_CE1

I stamped and heat embossed XOXO Mini stamp image on a heat resistant acetate and adhered it on the back of the panel lined up with the window. I added double layer of foam tape on the back, filled inside with our new Pink Bokeh Couture Mix, Pink Blossoms Couture Mix, Sakura Petals Couture Mix and closed it up with Glossy Fine Transparent Adhesive paper to complete the shaker. I adhered it on a A2 red card base and finished the card by adding some sequins from the Pink Bokeh Couture Mix.

For today’s 1st card, I decided to go with our new beautiful Haute Gala Dress stamp set. Oh how I LOVE this set! I did no-line coloring for the image and I’m pleased how it turned out!

Here’s the card!

Ton_ReGalaDress_FE1.jpg

I started off by stamping the Haute Gala Dress image in Ballet Slippers on a watercolor paper. I watercolored the upper body with Peerless Watercolors for more control and the skirt with Peony Color Burst. I let the color Burst bloom wildly all over the skirt area to create a dreamy effect. I let it dry completely and stamped the sparkle layer in Versamark and heat embossed with sparkle powder. I cut a tiny strip of sparkly silver belt out of our Glossy Fine Silver adhesive paper and adhered on the image with few Clear Rhinestones over it. I stamped the sentiment in Noir Dye ink and trimmed the panel down to 5″x7″. I adhered the panel on a gray card base with a pink panel sandwiched in between. I added Clear Rhinestones and Glass Slippers Sequin and the card was complete!

Ton_ReGalaDress_CE1

 

For the 2nd card, I’m showcasing our new Peony Bouquet stamp set and The Most Interesting Cardmaker Stamp set for the sentiment.

Here’s the card!

Ton_PeonyBouquet_FE1

To start off, I stamped the Peony Bouquet on a watercolor cardstock in Noir Dye ink multiple times using the MISTI and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then I colored the image with Peony, Prussian Blue, Marigold, Alizarin Crimson, Lemon Yellow, Orchid, Sap Green, and Lime Green Color Burst Powders to create a colorful bouquet of peonies. I colored the crystal bowl with Cobalt Blue Zig Marker. I let it dry completely and die cut the panel using the 2nd largest die from the Large Double Stitched Square Dies.

Ton_PeonyBouquet_CE1

Next, I stamped the sentiment from our new The Most Interesting Cardmaker stamp set on a Vellum strip, heat embossed in white, and adhered it around the bottom of the panel. I didn’t have a card base with a perfect hue, so I created my own by smudging the Iris Blooms Dye ink on a white square cardbase. I popped up the watercolored panel on the card base and dressed it up with the sequins from our new Lilac Blooms Couture Mix from Day1 to complete the card.

Day 1 Products

 

For the 1st card, I went with our new Buildable Woodgrain stamp set and the Daisy Duet (GWP) stamp set. It was so much fun to create my own woodgrain background. You can stamp in so many different ways and there are infinite possibilities! I stamped it on a kraft cardstock to create more rustic feel to it.

Here’s the card!

Ton_DaisyDuet_FE1

 

I started off by stamping the Buildable Woodgrain stamp set on a kraft cardstock in Found Topaz Dye, Aspen Cocoa Dye, and Dark Roast Dye ink. I flipped around some stamps here and there to create the natural look. I die cut the panel using the largest die from our Large Double Stitched Rectangle Dies and adhered it to a black cardbase slightly wider than A2 size.

Ton_DaisyDuet_CE1

Then, I stamped our new Daisy Duet stamp set on a smooth white cardstock in our Copic-friendly Caviar Hybrid ink and colored the image with Copic Markers. The colors I used are Y06, Y13, Y17, Y15, Y38, Yr04, YR09, R08, YG68, YG17, YG03, and YG01. I also added more details with color pencils and traced the lines with black journaling pen. I fussy cut it out (I didn’t have the Coordinating die at the moment) and popped it up on the card. I stamped the sentiment on a black cardstock in Versamark ink and heat embossed in white. I cut it down to a banner and popped it up on the card. I added some white gel pen dots on the daisies and finished the card off by adding some Clear Dew Drops.

Ton_DaisyDuet_CE2

 

I am showcasing our new Coming Up Daisies for the 2nd card. Let’s take a look!

Ton_ComingUpDaisies_FE1

To start off, I stamped the Coming Up Daisies on a watercolor paper and heat embossed in Silver. I colored the background with Navy Gansai Tambi watercolors and colored the daisies with Gansai Tambi (Plum), Color Burst (Lime Green & Peony), and the Dark Gray Zig marker for the center. I let it dry completely, die cut it with the largest die from the Large Double Stitched Rectangle Dies, and adhered it to a white A2 card base.

Ton_ComingUpDaisies_CE1

To add interest, I stamped our Minor Stripes Cling stamp on a strip of a pink cardstock and popped it up with foam tape on the left side of the card. I added a sentiement strip heat embossed in white on a black cardstock, and dressed up the card with some Clear Dew Drops and our new Pink Blossoms Couture Mix.

Ton_ComingUpDaisies_CE2

 

For the 3rd card, I combined our new Large Florals: Daisies stamp set and the Seriously Amazing stamp set. It was a breeze to layer stamp this large Daisy and I LOVE adding the humorous sentiments over the image!

Here’s the card!

Ton_DaisyAmazing_FE1

First, I stamped all the layers of the Large Florals: Daisies in Soft Orchid Dye, Orchid Crush Dye, Grand Fuchsia Dye, Vanilla Frosted Cupcake Dye, Amber Citrine Dye, and Dark Roast Dye ink on a smooth white cardstock to create this beautiful large daisy.

Ton_DaisyAmazing_CE1

Then I stamped the sentiments from the Seriously Amazing stamp sets in Noir Dye ink multiple times using MISTI, making them wet enough to pour Clear embossing powder over it and heat set. I tilted the sentiments in different angles to create interest. I rounded the corners with the Corner Chomper and adhered in on the pink A2 card base on an angle. I dressed up the card with our new Pink Blossom Couture Mix and Lilac Blooms Couture Mix and the card was complete!

Ton_DaisyAmazing_CE2

 

For the final card for today, I created a masculine winter card showcasing our new Winter Cardinal stamp set.

Here’s the card!

Ton_Cardinal_FE1

I stamped the Winter Cardinal and heat embossed in white first on the black cardstock and then also on the kraft cardstock. Then I cut both images down to quarter inch strips and pieced them together on a black square cardstock. I popped up every other strip with foam tape to create more interest.

Ton_Cardinal_CE1

Next, I stamped the brach images in Crystal Pewter Dye, Smoky Quartz Dye, Noir Dye, and Hampton White Pigment ink on a gray A2 cardbase. I stamped the sentiment in Noir Dye ink and adhered the cardinal on the card. I finished the card off by adding some Glass Slippers Sequins and Clear Rhinestones.

Now, without further ado, let me introduce you the 2 cards I’ve created! 

For this card, I used 3 new stamp sets – Born Classy, Plus One, and Holiday Confetti. I adore this beautiful couple! It’s so fun to dress them like paper dolls! If you remember the card I created for day 2 of the release week, I gave this gal a Greek goddess look! She wore a white dress with beautiful gold trimmed chiffon chiton. This time, she’s wearing a sexy black dress with gold sparkles. The handsome guy is wearing a black tuxedo with gold trims that matches his beautiful date! Don’t you think this couple is dressed perfectly for a formal New Year party?  🙂

fdaybh_ny_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping the lady image from our new Born Classy stamp set and the man image from Plus One stamp set. I stamped both images on smooth white cardstock in our Copic friendly Caviar Hybrid ink. I colored both images with various Copic markers.
  • For the lady image, I stamped the sparkle dress layer with embossing ink and heat embossed in gold. I drew in lines and dots with gold gel pen on the man image to add some interest. I fussy cut both images.
  • On a smooth white cardstock, I stamped the confetti image from our new Holiday Confetti stamp set on 2 corners with embossing ink and heat embossed in gold. I trimmed the sides down slightly narrower than 4″
  • I adhered our beautiful Gold Burnished Foil tape on the A2 black card base so it would peek through between the card base and the main panel.
  • I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment in gold on a strip of a black cardstock.
  • I adhered the main panel then the couple image. I adhered the sentiment strip with foam tape.
  • I finished the card by adding some Matte Gold sequins.

This second card was designed around the sentiment, “mistletoe kisses and joyful holiday wishes”. Mistletoe and pine cones are “hung” on gold threads, waiting for sweet couples to stop by for kisses. 🙂

The sentiment is from our new Mistletoe Kisses stamp set, and I mix-matched various images from the Holiday Cones, Outline Holiday Cones, Fresh Cut Poinsettias, and Outline Fresh Cut Poinsettias stamp set.

fdaybh_mistletoe_fe1

  • First I planned where to stamp different images on the card and prepared masks accordingly.
  • I stamped various images from the Holiday Cones, Outline Holiday Cones, Fresh Cut Poinsettias, and Outline Fresh Cut Poinsettias stamp set, using masking technique to achieve some dimensions. All images are stamped with our Warm Hazelnut dye ink for no-line coloring.
  • I colored all images and the background with various Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens (blended with clear water) and let it dry completely. Then I added some details on the images with the Prismacolor color pencils. I also stamped a detail layer on the poinsettia image and heat embossed with gold glitter embossing powder.
  • I drew in gold threads with gold gel pen. I also added some highlights on the berries with the same gel pen.

  • I stamped the sentiment from our newMistletoe Kisses stamp set on a strip of vellum with the embossing ink and heat embossed in gold. I wrapped the sentiment strip around the panel and adhered it on the back. I also adhered black fun foam trimmed slightly smaller than the panel.

  • I made some bows with gold thread and glued them on the pine cones and added bit of glitter glue on the bow.
  • I finished the card by adding some sequins from our new Elf Stockings Couture Mix as well as our Matte Gold & Glass Slippers sequins.

For the first card, I created a fun and elegant black & gold New Year card!

fday4_cheers_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping the confetti image from our new Holiday Confetti image on 2 corners of a heavy black cardstock with the embossing ink and heat embossed with gold glitter embossing powder. I stamped the sentiment “cheers” from our new Brushed Cheers stamp set and heat embossed with the same embossing powder. I trimmed the panel down to 4″x5.5″.
  • On a strip of a vellum, I stamped the sentiment “To a Fabulous New Year” from the Brushed Cheers set with the embossing ink. I also stamped the small drink images from our new Plus One stamp set repeatedly across the vellum strip with the embossing ink. I heat embossed the vellum with the gold embossing powder.
  • I wrapped the vellum around the main panel and adhered in on the back. I cut narrow strips of our beautiful Gold Adhesive Glitter paper and adhered it on the 2 horizontal edges of the vellum strip. I adhered black fun foam behind the panel.
  • On a A2 black card base, I adhered strips of Gold Adhesive Glitter paper on horizontal edges and adhered the main panel on top.
  • I finished the card by adding gold thread of top of the card and some Medallion Gold sequins.

For the second card, I tried to create a card with the traditional Christmas look!

I created this beautiful Christmas card using our new Brushed Merry stamp set as well as the Fresh Cut Poinsettia stamp set from day 3!

 

fday4_merry_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping “Merry” from our new Brushed Merry stamp set on a smooth white cardstock with the embossing ink and heat embossed with the gold embossing powder.
  • Then I layer stamped the poinsettia images from our new Fresh Cut Poinsettias stamp set and fussy cut. I used our Coral Cavern, Red Sangria Hybrid, Lipstick Red, and Valentine Red ink for the poinsettias and Soft Garden and Bright Fern dye inks for the leaves. I heat embossed the most detail layer on the poinsettia images. I also stamped the second layer of the candle image from the same set on the vellum with the embossing ink, heat embossed with the gold glitter embossing powder and fussy cut.
  • I stamped the sentiment on the black cardstock, heat embossed in gold, and cut it down to a banner shape.
  • I adhered our Gold Burnished Foil tape on all 4 edges of a white card base and adhered the main panel on top. Then I assembled the fussy cut images and the sentiment banner on the card front.
  • I finished the card off by adding some sequins from our new Winter Frost Couture Mix, Santa’s Sneezes Couture mix, and the Medallion Gold sequins.

For the third one, I created beautiful holiday shaker card!

I used our new Holiday Border Stamp and Santa’s Sneezes Couture Mix for this card. I also used Mistletoe Kisses and Outline Fresh Cut Poinsettia stamp set from day 3.

fday4_rshaker_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping our new Holiday Border on the cold press Arches watercolor paper with embossing ink and heat embossed in white. I colored the entire border with red Mijello Mission Gold watercolor. I splattered some white watercolor pigment and let the panel dry completely.
  • I stamped the sentiment from our new Mistletoe Kisses stamp set in the middle of the watercolor panel and heat embossed with clear glitter embossing powder. I watercolored around the sentiment using the same red watercolor. I let it dry completely and rubbed in tiny bit of Perfect Pearl powder for added sparkle and shine.
  • I die cut the shaker frame by using the largest and third largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangle die set. Using the outer die cut frame as a guide, I adhered the inside panel on the A2 white card base. I adhered acetate and double layered foam tape on the outer die cut to create the shaker frame.
  • I put our Santa’s Sneezes Couture Mix in the middle of the card and sealed it with the shaker frame.
  • I stamped a poinsettia image from our Outline Fresh Cut Poinsettia stamp set on the vellum with the embossing ink, heat embossed in silver, adhered Stick-It sheet, and fussy cut.
  • On the top left corner, I adhered 2 strips of our Silver think Glitter tape. I placed some silver thread and adhered the poinsettia.
  • I finished the card by adding some sequins from the Santa’s Sneezes Couture Mix and Glass Slippers sequins. I also added few clear gems.

Today, we are revealing 5 new stamp sets and a couture mix – Fresh Cut Poinsettias Layered, Outline Fresh Cut Poinsettias, Holiday Cones Layered, Outline Holiday Cones, Mistletoe Kisses, and Elf Stocking Couture Mix! These beautiful images are definite must-haves to create holiday cards! I created 2 holiday cards using these stamp sets. I had so much fun and I almost felt like it’s winter already!

Let me show you the first card! I wanted to create something different yet elegant, so I created a chalkboard look with touch of gold! 

I used the Fresh Cut Poinsettias Outlines and Mistletoe Kisses stamp set for the sentiment.

 

fday3_chalk_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping various of images from our new Fresh Cut Poinsettia Outlines stamp set on a heavy black cardstock with our Hampton White Pigment ink. Then I colored the image (mainly just the edges of the images) with the white Prismacolor color pencil. I went over here and there with the white pastel and smudged it with my fingers to create the chalkboard look. I also added some highlights with the white gel pen.
  • I stamped the sentiment from our new Mistletoe Kisses on the panel with the embossing ink and heat embossed in gold.
  • I cut down the panel down to 4″x5.25″, distressed the edges with the distress tool, and smudged white pastel around the panel. I adhered the black fun foam on the back.
  • On the A2 sized black card base, I adhered a sheet of burlap slightly smaller than the card base. Then I adhered the main panel on top. Both were flushed to the bottom right corner of the card base.
  • On the top of the card, I wrapped the string of gold sequins and tied it with the gold thread.
  • I finished the card by adding some Matte Gold and Glass Slippers sequins.

For the second card, I created a bright & cheerful fun holiday shaker card! 

I used our new Holiday Cones, both Layered and Outlines, as well as the Scripty Holiday Greetings set which was revealed on day 1! I also used our new Couture Mix for this shaker card!

 

fday3_grnshaker_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping 3 different pine branch images from our new Outline Holiday Cones stamp set on a smooth white cardstock with our Crystal Garden Collection inks –  Soft Garden, Bright Fern, Deep Emerald Couture Color inks. I filled in the brown part of some of the pine branches by stamping one of the layer from our new Layered Holiday Cones stamp set with Aspen Cocoa ink. The beauty of these two sets is that they can be used together, as the sizes of the images coordinates perfectly to each other! So you could mix-and-match the images from both Outlines and Layered set! After stamping all the branches, I filled in the gaps with the solid berry image with our Valentine Red dye ink.
  • I also layer stamped cones and pine branch images on a smooth white cardstock and fussy cut. I used Found Toapz, Aspen Cocoa, and Dark Roast ink for the acorns and Soft Garden,Bright Fern, Deep Emerald, and Aspen Cocoa ink for the pine branches.
  • I die cut the panel with the biggest die from our Double Stitched Rectangle Dies, then the third biggest die from the same set in the center. I adhered acetate and double layered foam tape behind the outer piece to create the shaker frame. I stamped the sentiment from our new Scripty Holiday Greetings stamp set on the inner piece with our crisp black Noir dye ink.
  • On a A2 size white card base, I adhered burlap panel and the sentiment panel in the middle. I placed plenty of our new Couture Mix in the middle and sealed the card with the shaker frame.
  • I wrapped some Christmas color twine and silver thread on the top of the card and adhered the layered images behind the bow.

Here is my first card! I used our new Born Classy and Grand Stairway stamp set. I truly enjoyed creating this card! Born Classy set is so versatile, you could use different accessories to achieve different looks with the lady image! Creating this card totally reminded me of dressing paper dolls when I was a little girl! 🙂 And the Grand Stairway creates such an elegant and fun background or main image for any occasions, colored or not.

  • I started the card by stamping the classy lady and her luxury bag image from our new Born Classy stamp set on a smooth white cardstock using our Caviar Hybrid ink, which is Copic friendly ink. I colored the image with various Copic markers and fussy cut. The coordinating dies will be available at the shop on Monday!
  • Then I stamped one of the accessories (the chiton layer) from the set on the vellum with embossing ink and heat embossed in gold. I adhered Stick-It sheet on the back of the image and fussy cut.
  • I stamped our new Grand Stairway stamp on a smooth white cardstock with embossing ink and heat embossed in gold. I stamped the sentiment of the top right corner and trimmed the panel down tiny bit smaller than the standard A2 size.
  • I adhered our beautiful Gold Burnished Foil tape on the edges of a top folding A2 size white card base, and adhered the Grand Stairway image on top.
  • I adhered the classy lady image and the chiton layer on top.
  • I finished the card by adding some accents with gold gel pen and some Night and Matte Gold sequins.

Moving on to the second card!

I just insanely love the stamp sets I used on this card! I’m sure many of us love shopping, and could totally relate to these stamp sets! I used City Girls: Retail Therapy and Dept. Store stamp set for this fun card!

fday2_shop_fe1

  • I started the card by stamping the girl image and the tiny adorable dog image from our new City Girls: Retail Therapy stamp set on a smooth white cardstock using our Copic friendly Caviar Ink. I colored both images with various of Copic markers, added some accents with white and gold gel pens, and fussy cut.
  • I stamped the Dept Store image on a smooth white cardstock with our Smoky Quarts ink, to create the background. I trimmed the panel down to 4″x5.5″
  • I cut couple of strips of our beautiful Glossy Fine Transparent Adhesive Glitter paper and adhered them to vertical sides of a top folding A2 size white card base.
  • I adhered the girl and the dog image on the card base using the foam tape. I created a “leash” with a thin twine (I colored the twine in pink with the Copic marker) and adhered it between the 2 images.
  • I stamped the sentiment (I love this sentiment!) with embossing ink and heat embossed in white. I trimmed it down and added some dots on the sides with white gel pen. I adhered the sentiment on the card base with the foam tape.
  • I finished the card by adding some My Tutu, Glass Slippers, and Fairy Pink Sparkling Clear sequins. I also added some sparkle on some of the shopping bags and boxes using the Clear Wink of Stella pen.

Here comes my first 2 projects! I used our new Thankful Cornucopia and Scripty Holiday Greetings stamp set for the first card, and Fresh Cut Garden Roses Outlines stamp set for the second card.

 

For my first card, I achieved no-line coloring look for this beautiful image, and I’m quite happy how it turned out! 

fday1_cornu_ce1

  • I started the card by stamping this beautiful cornucopia image from our new Thankful Cornucopia stamp set on a smooth white cardstock with our Warm Hazelnut Couture Color Ink to achieve no-line coloring look.
  • Then I colored the entire image with Prismacolor color pencils. I also brushed on our Peach Blossom Couture Color ink very lightly using Clarity Stencil brush to give the image a subtle peachy background.
  • I die cut a piece of kraft cardstock using the second largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangle dies. I also die cut a hole/window using  thethird largest die from our Double Stitched Circle dies. I die cut a fun foam just the same way but a tiny bit smaller than the kraft panel. I adhered the fun foam and the colored image panel behind the kraft panel.
  • On a top folding 4.5″x5.5″ black cardbase, I adhered strips of our Copper Adhesive Foil paper on 2 vertical sides. I adhered the main panel on top using strong adhesive.
  • I stamped the sentiment from our new Scripty Holiday Greetings on a black cardstock using embossing ink, and heat embossed in white. I cut the sentiment down in a banner shape and adhered it to the card using the foam tape.
  • I finished the card by adding some sequins. I used Matte Gold, Dulce, and Burnt Caramel sequins.

Now moving on to the second card!

For this card, I used our new Fresh Cut Roses Outlines stamp set. I fell in love with the images as soon as I saw them! 

fday1_roses_fe1

 

  • I started the card by stamping some beautiful roses and leaves images from our Fresh Cut Roses Outlines stamp set on a hot pressed Arches watercolor paper with embossing ink. I heat embossed with our famous Rose Gold embossing powder. I did some maskings for the images to create the dimensions.
  • Then I colored the entire image using various of green, pink, and yellow Mijello Mission Gold watercolors. I also splattered pink, yellow, and white watercolors on the panel. I let it dry completely, trimmed it down to 4″x5.5″, and rounded all 4 corners.
  • I stamped the sentiment (which I love the font of it, by the way!) on a strip of vellum with embossing ink, and heat embossed with our Rose Gold embossing powder. I also die cut a circle frame using the 3rd & 4th largest dies from our Double Stitched Circle Dies, and heat embossed with Rose Gold embossing powder. I adhered both on the watercolored panel.
  • I adhered our Rose Gold Burnished Foil tape on all 4 sides of an A2 size top folding white card base. I adhered a panel of white fun foam on the back of the watercolored panel and adhered it on the card base.
