Hello everyone… Spring is officially here on the calendar, we also start seeing some signs of Spring from our yard and garden. I am so looking forward to see more and enjoying the warmer weather.
Today, inspired by the Spring blooms, I have a card that I created for a friend to share with you all.
On my card, I use the Authentic Digital Stamp and one of the Coffee Lovers Digital Papers from Graciellie Design.
I like to use the Print and Cut feature from Silhouette Studio to work with digital stamps.
I opened the flower, leaves and sentiment with the Silhouette Studio software. I resized and printed them on a mixed media paper with inkjet printer in black and white. I printed the stripe digital paper on a white cardstock.
I heat set the printed images with craft heater to make sure the printer ink dried well before adding the watercolor paints. Other option, if you want to color with liquid medium, you can print your images a day before and let it dry over night for better result and no smudges.
On these printed images, I colored them with Arteza Woodless Watercolor Pencils and Water Brush Pen. I added some white paint splatters on them with fan brush and white spray paint. After that, I dried them with craft heater.
I added the printed paper on an A2 White Card with permanent adhesive runner. And then I added the leaves and flower on it with permanent adhesive glue. And I added the sentiment with 3D foam tape for extra dimension. I embellished the card with some silver sequins.
