Watercolor Backgrounds-Make It Monday #67

Hey all, I am so excited to share how you can create your own watercolor backgrounds to create some fabulous cards. All you need is an acrylic block (size of your choice), some Stampin’ Up! inks or refills, a water painter, watercolor paper and of course stamps of your choice.

This is a real fun technique and although I am not very good at it (yet), but I hope to experiment with a variety of different colors. I hope you will go crazy and create something beautiful.

Artistically Inked Thank You by Laura Rossmann

Today and tomorrow’s blog post is brought to you by my dear friend, Laura Rossmann. Thank you Laura for helping me get posted during this most difficult time.

From Laura-

I began with a Basic White card base and added the Artistically Inked DSP.  Using the Stampin’ Cut n Emboss machine and the Artistic Dies, I cut out the group of flowers and leaves from Basic White Cardstock and adhered it on top of the Artistically Inked DSP. 

I stamped the large flower in Daffodil Delight Ink and the leaves in Pear Pizzazz then cut them using the flower and leaf dies. I then filled in the center of the flower using the Wink of Stella and adhered them on top of the white flowers and leaves using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the Thanks on the remaining Basic White CS and cut it using the tag die from the Seasonal Labels Dies.  I adhered the sentiment tag using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Project Measurements and Supplies

  • Basic White CS – 5 ½ by 8 ½ (card base) and the remaining 5 ½ by 8 ½ for stamping and die cutting
  • Artistically Inked DSP – 5 ¼ by 4 (retired)
  • Artistically Inked Bundle
  • Seasonal Labels Dies
  • Daffodil Delight Ink
  • Pear Pizzazz Ink
  • Memento Black Ink
  • Wink of Stella

More Fun with Sunflowers

I am having more fun creating with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and Sunflower Dies. Yesterday I shared a card with you using the Sunflower dies and today I am using all stamps. I added a layer of black embossed with the new 3-Hive embossing folder and embellished with some Brushed Brass Butterflies.

Project Supplies and Measurements

  • Basic Black CS- 5½ x 8½, (card base)
  • Basic Black CS- 1 x 4
  • Crushed Curry CS- 4 x 5¼ , ¾ x 4 (greeting)

  • Memento Black ink
  • White Craft Ink
  • Sponge Daubers

I used Sponge Daubers and White Craft ink to add a bit more dimension to the embossed image. Adding the Brushed Brass Butterflies gives this card just the right touch.

Dragonfly Fun-Favorite Things Friday!

One of the things I love the most about crafting is coloring. As a kid I could not wait for Santa to bring another coloring book and a new box of crayons. And to get a box of crayons with a pencil sharpener-jack pot!!! Today, I am much, much older and still love coloring. My coloring tools have grown from crayons to markers, chalk, sponges, daubers, blending brushes, colored pencils and aqua painters.

For today’s card I used Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue inks to add color with Blending Brushes. The dragonflies and greeting were stamped in Memento Black ink. I used my Paper snips to cut a dragonfly border and added a layer of Daffodil Delight that is dry embossing using the Hammered Metal embossing folder.

The photo above is the inside of my card where I added a strip of the embossed Daffodil Delight along the right side.
