HOT NEWS!!! Coming soon…..
Good morning! Happy Good Friday!
Before I head off to enjoy a long Easter weekend with my family, I thought I would share this Easter inspired card.
I love this card, so simple yet so pretty! Made so easy with the Indescribable Gifts stamp set! You can download the Project Sheet for this card here: Indescribable Gift
Supplies:
Measurements:
- Watercolor Paper: original size (9” x 6”)
- Pink Pirouette cardstock: 8-1/2” x 8-1/2”
Instructions:
- Fold Watercolor Paper in half for a 4-1/2” x 6” card. Stamp with dogwood stamp and sentiment with Black StazOn ink.
- Make a paint palette with a shallow dish or use the inside lids of the matching ink pads if you have them. Put about 2 drops of each color in palette or ink pad lids.
- Squeeze the Aqua Painter gently to release clear water. Working with one flower at a time, “paint” the flower with clear water, then dip Aqua Painter in Pink Pirouette ink and drop into areas that you want to be darker (i.e., the center of the flower). The color will spread in the water, creating shading. Start light; you can always add more color if you need it. Repeat for each flower. Clean Aqua Painter by squeezing until clear. Repeat coloring for leaves with Pear Pizzazz and stems with Soft Suede. Let dry.
- Dilute Smoky Slate drops with an equal amount of water. “Paint” around the outer edges of branch with clear water and then add the diluted Smoky Slate, allowing the edges to bleed. Let dry.
- To make envelope, cut Pink Pirouette cardstock 8-1/2” square and follow instructions on Envelope Punch Board to make an envelope for a 4-1/2” x 6” card. Stamp dogwood image off edge with Smoky Slate ink.
Well, that's all for today! If you check back tomorrow, I've got another card using this wonderful stamp set!
I hope you have wonderful and long Easter weekend! Enjoy!
