The Technique Lover’s Challenge at SCS today was Embossed Watercolor. That is simply embossing an image and then water coloring it. I really wanted to use my Flower Fusion Kit today, too, since I am in another challenge to use these lovely felt flowers. This card is the result.
The hummingbird was stamp on a piece of scrap Whisper White with Black Craft ink, embossed with Black Detail Embossing Powder and water colored with my Aqua-Painter and ink squeezed onto the lid of my ink pads . . . my absolute FAVORITE way to watercolor! Then, I cut the bird out, thinking I might pop him up on dimensionals, but as the card progressed, I nixed that idea and just glued him down. This card is 5 1/4″ square and fits perfectly into SU’s Whisper White Medium Square Envelopes.
Supplies I used to make this card:
Stamps: Pretty Amazing, All In a Row
Paper: Old Olive, Rose Red, Whisper White
Ink: Old Olive, Rose Red, Black Craft
Accessories: Flower Fusion, Black Detail EP, Heat Gun, Aqua-Painter, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Earth Elements Brads, Fire Circle Rhinestone Brads
