InKing Royalty Blog Hop-Go Green!

Welcome to InKing Royalty’s April Blog Hop! Just in time for Spring, we are embracing some (or all) of Stampin’ Up!’s gorgeous greens for today’s hop. We are excited to share our creations and hope you love them! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.

The star of today’s Go Green card features Granny Apple Green and Garden Green. I began with a Garden Green card base followed by a thin layer of white and an embossed layer of Granny Apple Green. I used a 3 x 3 piece of Watercolor Paper, added my green colors with a water painter and then spritzed the watercolor paper with a blast of water to get the colors to run together for a sea of green.

I allowed the watercolor paper to dry completely, actually I was impatient and used the heat tool to speed up this step. Once the 3 x 3 was dry, I added some Garden Green ink to the edges using a sponge dauber to get that darker look around the border and then attached it to a 3-1/8x 3-1/8″ piece of Garden Green. Note: Be sure to let your watercolor paper dry completely before adding color to the edges.

My Granny Apple Green layer is embossed with the Fern embossing folder and the greeting is stamped in Memento Black ink with the hello from Biggest Wishes. I added three Black Matte Dots for an added pop and adding embellishment is just plain fun!

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time, be blessed, Renae

    I love your card! The watercolor technique is beautiful. I’ll have to experiment – I never tried anything like that. Thanks so much for sharing.
