(inside: wishing you a wonderful birthday)

This CAS card features stamps from the Stampin’ Up “Sweet Summer” set (retired) and a greeting stamp from Gina K Designs (unknown set).

The images were stamped with GKD Jet Black Amalgam Ink and colored with Copic Markers (E13, BG70, and BG72).

The background panel was embossed with a Stampin’ Up “Stripes” embossing folder (retired).  Papertrey Ink “Ocean Tides” card stock was used for the mat.

Watering Can with Greenery – Water Colored Note Card

Still playing with the Art Impressions water color stamp sets I recently purchased…

I used Spectrum Aqua markers and water along with the following stamp sets:  Watercolor Starter Bundle (which includes the WC Decorative Jar Set – 5123, Foliage Set – 4051, and Flower Set – 4052), WC Foliage Set 4 (#5126), and Watering Can (#4761).  (While I love the little scene building stamps in these sets, any stamps and water based markers will work for this technique.)

The water colored panel was mounted on Gina K Designs Dusty Sage card stock (retired?) and a Recollections Ivory base.  The finished card is 4 1/4″ square.

Here’s one more sample using a pot from the WC Containers (#4111) set.

In a recent post, I tried out a water color technique with stamps, markers, and water that I learned to do from this video (and several others in the AI Water Color series).  I was inspired to purchase some Art Impressions stamps from their water color line and had fun creating this card.

The Art Impressions stamps used for this card came from several sets:  Watercolor Starter Bundle (which includes the WC Decorative Jar Set – 5123, Foliage Set – 4051, and Flower Set – 4052), WC Foliage Set 4 (#5126), and WC Mini FLower Set (#5009).  (Each package has a water colored sample that may have been created with stamps from other sets; look carefully to see what is actually included in each set if interested in purchasing any of their stamps.)

I used water color paper, Spectrum Aqua markers (from various sets) as my paint, a no. 4 paint brush, and water.

The water colored panels were mounted on Gina K Designs Blue Denim card stock and a Recollections Ivory base.
