Hello again watercolor fans! Welcome to another fabulous weekend of inspiration from the awesome watercolor design team. I decided to do an easy design that uses just a few stamps. Join me as I show you how I created this simple Kindness card.
Step 1:
I added a piece of 1 inch post-it tape in the top third of the card, this will protect the area where I want to stamp the sentiment.
Step 2:
First, I inked up the vine from the Foliage Set 2 with green (177). I stamped it along the top and bottom of the post-it tape.
Step 3:
Next, I inked the lilies from the original Flower Set with pink (725) and green (177) and stamped it in the middle of the card along the top and bottom of the post-it tape.
Step 4:
I inked up the long stems from the Flower Sets 1 & 2 with purple (606) and stamped them to the left and right of the pink blooms along the top and bottom of the post-it tape.
Step 5:
I removed the post-it tape and beginning with the foliage, started softening the leaves. I added some additional green along the bottom of the foliage. Next, I softened the blooms. I used the color left on my palette to do some splatters over the entire piece. Once it was dry, I placed the piece into the MISTI and stamped the sentiment with Gina K Designs Amalgam ink into the blank area. I cut it down to 5 x 3.75, signed and dated it.
Step 6:
For embellishments, I added some Gina K Designs galaxy sequins, with connect glue, to add some interest. I added this to a Gina K Designs bubblegum card stock cut to 5.25 x 4 mat. I added the whole thing to a Neenah white card base.
