My Favorite Things~Jungle Gym


Hey everyone!  Today I'm sharing a window card I made featuring the Jungle Gym stamp set from My Favorite Things!  To make this card, I first stamped all of the images with VersaFine pigment ink onto Canson Watercolor paper.  This is my ink of choice when I use watercolors.  I used Prima Confections Watercolors Classics set, as well as the Tropicals to paint all of my images quickly.  Then I cut a window out of my card base and began using the coordinating dies to cut out all of my images.   I then used Distress Oxide inks to blend my background for my card and die cut the window in the card panel.  I assembled the card, and I think those images are so cute!  I'm also sharing the quick cards I made with the rest of the images I watercolored.  Such fun cards!  I also have a video tutorial if you would like to watch it:

Altenew Beautiful Day

Hey everyone!  Today I'm sharing a tutorial featuring the Beautiful Day stamp set from Altenew, on YouTube and here on my blog!  I painted all of the flower arrangement with Finetec watercolors, so the colors change in different light.  This was an easy card to make!  I masked off the flowers and stamped the arrangement.  Then I heat embossed the images with clear embossing powder.  This is my cheater way to watercolor, as it helps me stay in the lines easier.  Then I watercolored all of the images, and the colors are beautiful!  Links are provided below!
