One Background - Two Cards Part 2

Hi there,

as promised I would like to show you the second card that I created using last week's watercolor background:

  • stamp some eggs from the Anjas Basteltraum Osternest set with Distress Ink Antique Linen onto a piece of Arches cold pressed watercolor paper
  • color the eggs with Schmincke Horadam watercolors
  • cut the background in half
  • tear a strip of vellum
  • stamp the sentiment from the Anjas Basteltraum Kleine Oster Sprüche set with Versamark and heat-emboss it with WOW! Metallic Platinum Super Fine embossing powder
  • stamp the adorable little hen from the Anjas Basteltraum Osternest set with Distress Ink Antique Linen, cut it out and color it with Schmincke Horadam watercolors
  • use double-sided foam adhesive to adhere the hen
  • mount the background panel onto a grass cardstock cardbase


Have a colorful day.

Hugs,

Watercolor Hugs

Hi there,

I created this Watercolor Flower Card for Anjas Basteltraum:

  • stamp two bouquets from the Anjas Basteltraum Blumengrüße set with Distress Ink Antique Linen onto a piece of Arches cold pressed watercolor paper
  • color the image with Schmincke Horadam watercolors
  • add some splatters with blue, pink and white watercolors
  • cut out the Memory Box Big Hugs Sugar Script from watercolor paper and add shading with watercolors
  • use vellum for the background layer of the sentiment
  • add some accents to the sentiment with WOW! Perissa embossing powder#
  • add a strip of Distress Cardstock Dusty Concord to the left and right of the watercolor panel before adhering it to a cardbase


Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
