WCMD 2015 Challenge with Winnie & Walter: Day 3

Today is the third day I am playing with Winnie and Walter Challenges on their blog. You still can join their challenges until Sunday, October 11th, 2015. Read the detail of these challenges here.

This is the card I link up today at these challenges:

Winnie & Walter - WCMD Challenge

On this card, I stamped those flowers and leaves from The Big, The Bold and Extras stamp set using using Faber Castell Mix & Match – Stamper’s Big Brush Pens(*). Then I stamped the sentiment and banner from The Big, The Bold and Happy stamp set using using Faber Castell Mix & Match Stamper’s Big Brush Pen set of 3 – Gold(*). These Faber Castell Stampers Big Brush Pens are amazing! They do not bleed through my card. They are high quality India Ink that you can apply directly on any kind of stamps.

I finished my card using Sequins Assortment Gold from CTMH. They already have glue dots and ready to use on the project.

Thansk for visiting today!

I have fun creating the background with stamping, embossing and watercoloring. The sentiment I stamped and embossing on a piece of vellum paper. I found this clear embossing poweder at Hobby Lobby a few months ago and love the result using it with the pigment ink.
