Hello and Happy Sunday! I trust you've had an enjoyable weekend thus far. Today's make and share features watercolor, stamping, butterflies and heat embossing.
This card measures 5" square and I started with watercoloring a panel of Tim Holtz Watercolor paper with Salty Ocean and Cracked Pistachio Distress Inks. After fully drying, I stamped butterflies from the Gina K. Designs Beautiful Butterflies Stamp set using Sea Glass Dye Ink, also from Gina K. I was going for a monochrome background with a large focal Butterfly, which I heat embossed with Fine Detail White Powder.
I wanted more texture to the piece so I inked the edges with VersaMark and sprinkled Oceanic Embossing Powder from WOW! Happy with the edges, I mounted the panel on foam strips and placed on the card base. The sentiment strip is a CZ Designs from Simon Says Stamp and lastly, placed clear water droplet gems for additional texture and interest.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
Donna
