Hello Crafty Friends! I have a treat for you today! A bonus card! Earlier this week I made cards during my Facebook Live featuring the Color & Contour Bundle.....well, I just kept playing with the products!
I created this Thank You card and I love it! It's fresh and fun! To find out how I made this card....read on....
My card base is Crumb Cake, and measures 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2. The layer is Real Red, and then Crumb Cake again for the top layer.
Doesn't the 'splatter' image make a fun backdrop! Love it! I heat embossed the splatter & greeting in black. It looks so dark and rich and gives a wee shine to the card!
In the picture below you can see the dies I used for the layers. Check out this bundle... seriously versatile! I love when a bundle offers so many the possibilities!
Have you tried our Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper? I prefer it over the many types of watercolor paper I've tested. To start, I used water in my Stampin' Spritzer and got the paper wet. Then placed a few drops of Pear Pizzaz ink refill and one drop of Daffodil Delight onto an acrylic block. With my Water Painter (full of water), I picked up some of the Pear Pizzaz and brushed it onto the wet watercolor paper, and then did the day with Daffodil Delight.
I repeated the above steps on another block with a drop each of Red Red & Poppy Parade. Same process as above.
Once everything dried, I heat embossed 2 leaf images and the flower using Stampin' White Embossing Powder. There's a die to cut out the flower from the bundle, and for the leaves, it's an easy fussy cut.
I'm a HUGE fan of dimensionals, and used them to pop up the top layer, and also the flower & leaves! Use them, and you can easily take a simple card and give it depth! No craft room is complete without dimensionals.
