Today’s card uses both the stamp set and the dies from
the new Ornate Style Bundle. I water
colored again but today I chose to do it on Fluid 100 Watercolor paper so you
can see the different affect you can achieve simply by changing up one or two
products. I found that I achieve a
richer deeper color with watercolor paper which I like but then I also love the
soft look you can achieve with the Shimmery White cardstock. I think both are beautiful and depending on
what you want for a final outcome you will love either one you chose to use.
The card base is Daffodil Delight cardstock cut to 5 ½
x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”. The next
layer is cut from Whisper White cardstock using the second largest of the
Ornate Layers Dies and it is popped up off the center of the card using
Dimensionals. I then cut a piece of the
Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper using the second largest of the Stitched Nested
Labels Dies (I love these and use them often).
I then stamped my image from the Ornate Style Stamp Set using Versamark
ink and embossed it with the white Stampin’ Emboss Powder set with my Heat
Tool.
To color the flowers, I used the same technique I used
on my previous post and used ink pads and the Aqua Painters to color in my
flowers. I did also add a little So Saffron
in and around my image to fill in the blank areas and give the image additional
depth. The ink colors I used on this
card were, So Saffron, Mint Macaron, Crushed Curry, Pear Pizzazz, Garden Green,
Rococo Rose, Melon Mambo and believe it or not a little Gray Granite to add
shadowing to my daisy.
Once I finished water coloring my image, I added that
layer to the top of my ornate die layer again using Dimensionals. And for a final little bit of interest I
added three of the Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
I hope you enjoy this card; it really was a lot of fun
to make. I will list the supplies I used
below and you can find the supplies for this card and many more on my website
