Happy Birthday Watercolor Roses

Hi Crafty Friends!  Today's mini slimline card features Watercolor Roses from Hot Off the Press/Paper Wishes and watercoloring using Gansai Tambi watercolor paints.


To start, I stamped and heat embossed the image on Canson multi media paper primarily because it's thinner than watercolor paper, can take the water and is lighter in color.  Also, this stamp set is silicone and not photopolymer so I was pleasantly pleased at how well it stamped.  My experience with most silicone stamps are they do not stamp well, spread out with pressure and the image is not crisp.  This stamp was non of that.


I've painted the image and background with Gansai Tambi watercolors, stamped and heat embossed the sentiment adhering to the card panel with craft foam.  The panel and mat are adhered to a 110 lb. card base of Neenah Solar White Classic Crest card.

Lastly, I've added splattered of Gold paint, White Acrylic Gloss Spray and Ivory Pearl Mix Gems from Kat Scrappiness.  While creating the card, the Yellow Rose of Texas tune kept popping in my head.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Donna
