Embossed Rose

I made this background using a clear block, markers, and water. I really like the effect. The amount of water you apply will determine the look that you achieve. Give it a try. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   You've Got This

Paper:

   Sweet Sugarplum A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2)

Ink:

   VersaMark

Markers:

   Soft Sky

   Pink Pirouette

   Sweet Sugarplum

   Garden Green

   Emerald Envy

   Delightful Dijon

Technique:

   Heat Embossing

   Clear Block Watercolor

Accessories:

   Black Embossing Powder

   Embossing Buddy

   Water Mister (Spritzer)

   Clear Block "F"

   Adhesive

First, I colored the clear block, using the markers in the order listed above: Soft Sky at the top and ending with Delightful Dijon on the bottom.

I then misted the block with water. I did not add much, so this panel was a bit splotchy. The more water you add, the more blurry or blended effect. Note the Soft Sky had the most water. You can also choose to add more water with a watercolor brush. I did not.

Once, the block was misted with water, I set it on the Basic White panel for a bit to allow the color to soak into the paper.

Once it was dry, I went over the panel with an Embossing Buddy.

I then stamped the image and sentiment with VersaMark.

I applied some Black Embossing Powder and then heat set it.

I added the panel to a Basic Black matte, and then adhered it to the Sweet Sugarplum card front.

Lastly, I adhered the other Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Vellum Flower

A unique trifold card for someone special. I really like the color combination on this card.

Stamps:

   You've Got This

Paper:

   Basic Black 5 1/2 x 4 1/4, 4 x 1 1/4

   Mint Macaron 5 1/4 x 8, 3 3/4 x 1

   Very Vanilla 5 x 7 1/2

   Vellum 2 3/4" Strip

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

   Mint Macaron

Technique:

   Trifold Card

   Die Cutting

   Distressing

Accessories:

   Starburst Framelits Dies, Stylus, Paper Piercing Mat, Glue Dots, Distressing Tool, Adhesive

First, fold the Mint Macaron piece in half. Open it and run it through your die cutting machine using the Starburst Framelits Dies. 

Fold the Very Vanilla piece in half and adhere it upside down so that it opens left to right. (You will stamp on the outside and then open it to write your personal thoughts.)

I then closed the Mint Macaron card and made light pencil marks to mark my circle on the Very Vanilla. This way I can center my stamped flower.

Stamp the background using Mint Macaron and then the flower with Archival Basic Black. Don't forget to erase your pencil marks.

I then stamped the flower on a piece of vellum. Turning the flower upside down on my piercing foam mat, I gently rubbed it using my stylus. As the stylus broke up the fibers in the vellum it turned white and caused it to rise a bit. I then adhered it onto the stamped flower with glue dots. Here is the inside of the card.

I then stamped my sentiment on the 3 3/4 x 1 Mint Macaron piece and distressed the edges with my distress tool. You can also use scissors to accomplish this effect. I then adhered it to the Basic Black piece, and then onto the Mint Macaron card. Note that this Very Vanilla piece will open from the left to the right making the third fold. 

Lastly, I adhered the Mint Macaron card onto the Basic Black 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 piece.

You've Got This, Kinda

This is a one-layered, clean and simple card aimed at bringing positive, hopeful feelings to the recipient. I hope you like it.

Stamps:

   You've Got This

   Kinda Eclectic

Paper:

   Watermelon Wonder A-2

   Whisper White 5 1/4 x 4

Ink and Markers:

   Mint Macaron

   Daffodil Delight

   Delightful Dijon

   Watermelon Wonder

   Tip Top Taupe

   Stamp-Off

The background was stamped using Mint Macaron. I stamped off once before applying the stamp on my Whisper White panel.

I used markers to color directly onto my flower stamp. I then moistened the ink with my breath. Then stamped the flower on my Mint Macaron background.

I used Daffodil Delight to stamp my sun and rays. The rays were stamped 3 times in different directions each time.

The small butterfly is stamped using Delightful Dijon. I stamped it once full strength then stamped it off twice on the card. Pearls were added to the darkest butterfly.

The dots on the ground were stamped using Tip Top Taupe.
