Watercolor Christmas Baubles

Hi there,

I created another Watercolor Card for the Karten-Kunst Blog:

  • stamp three baubles from the Karten-Kunst Scribble Ornaments set with Distress Oxide Ink Lost Shadow - use the masking technique
  • color the images with watercolors and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • add splatters with watered-down dark blue watercolor
  • stamp the sentiment from the Karten-Kunst Weihnachten Modern set with Versamark onto a strip of dark blue cardstock and heat-emboss it with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder
  • adhere the panel to a dark blue cardbase

Have a wonderful Christmas Time.

Hugs,

  • stamp the Purple Onion Designs Tofu & The Snowman with Gina K. Designs Obsidian
  • color the image with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • run a panel of watercolor paper through your Big Shot in the Spellbinders Flurry of Snowflakes embossing folder

  • ink up the edges of the panel with Distress Ink Peacock Feathers
  • tear a piece of vellum in order to create a hill shape
  • cut out some Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflakes and the Creative Expressions Snowflake Wishes sentiment from white glitter paper

I hope you got inspired.
