Welcome to another Fancy Friday blog hop! We're a group of past and present Stampin' Up! Artisan award winners that love to bring you inspiration each month. This month our focus is the Painted Autumn suite (pp. 48-49 Holiday Catalogue). That means something like this: 'Bold, watercoloured images in beautiful Autumnal colours'. So here's my card using Birthday Blooms and Pieces and Patterns stamp sets.
Live in the South Pacific like me? You could swap the yellow for a soft pink and you've got pretty cherry tree blossoms for spring!
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Birthday Blooms, Pieces and Patterns
Inks: Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Wild Wasabi, Versamark
Papers: Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Silver Glimmer Paper
Tools/Accessories: Delicate White Doilies, White Stampin' Emboss Powder, Heat Tool, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Silver Metallic Thread, Linen Thread, Aqua Painter
HOT TIP: Use a really light touch when you're water colouring on Very Vanilla so the paper doesn't get too wet.
WHAT'S THE CRAFTY CARROT CO.?
