love you Forever

Make It Monday #111:Watercoloring Embossed Images



Started with white watercolor paper, stamped heart images from PTI Framed Out #11 with Versamark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Next pressed 3 different Distress Inks: Victorian Velvet, Fired Brick, Shaded Lilac on an acrylic block, wet my brush and blended the colors on the embossed paper. Directly adhered the colored card stock to a white A2 card. Die cut the PTI Trendy Tree Tops and stamped one circle with the plaid PTI Trendy Tops circle and watercolored Shaded Lilac Distress Ink on it. Dry embossed a Cuttlebug folder on the other Trendy Top die cut. PTI Trendy Tops sentiment stamped in Versafine Black ink on top of half a Nestabilities Labels 8 die cut stamped with PTI Polka Dots Basic II in Hero Arts Soft Lilac ink. Added 2 Fiskars scallop lilac strips to two sides and 3 silver pearls.

BONUS WRAP UP DAY







This card was inspired by Jennifer's patchwork strips. 
I used Simon Says Stamp Meadow Rue die and will make a card with
the die cut but thought the negative space was useable also.
Hero Arts stamp, Sizzix Texture used on light green cardstock

I'm putting this in the Pattern Play Wrap Up Student Gallery and Emphasize the Negative
Challenge in the Moxie Fab World http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2013/03/card-creations-week-emphasize-negative.html




Here is the Meadow Rue diecut framed by Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 7 
and mounted on a green pattern paper shaded with Distress Ink Frayed Burlap,
embossed with Tim Holtz Woodgrain folder adhered to Kraft A2 card.
Card was finished off with My Mind's Eye enamel dots.
