I like creating backgrounds with texture and using Altenew dies to create texture is so easy! I wish you can see the sparkle on the cardfront. The metallic shimmer the spray gives is so pretty!

  3. Stamp the watercolor paper with the Whimsical Herringbone stamp set and emboss using Rose Gold embossing powder.
  4. Add color using the Artists’ Watercolor pan set.
  5. Stamp the sentiment using Versamark ink then emboss with the Pure White embossing powder.
  6. Tear the edges to add texture.
  7. Assemble card using foam squares and adhesive.

Here’s another way to use your embossing folders… cut them out! I selected a portion of the embossed image and added it to the cardfront. Don’t you just love the Whimsical Herringbone stamp set? I will definitely be make more backgrounds using this stamp set.

JUST A NUMBER STAMP

COUNT YOUR LIFE BY SMILES, NOT TEARS. COUNT YOUR AGE BY FRIENDS, NOT YEARS


MATERIALS: JUST A NUMBER STAMP , ROSE GOLD EMBOSSING POWDER, OBSIDIAN PIGMENT INK, VERSMARK INK, TIM HOLTZ COLLAGE PAPER, DISTRESS OXIDE INKS AND SPRAYS AND STENCILS, COLLAGE MEDIUM, VICKI BOUTIN MIXED MEDIA PAPER, GESSO

STEPS:

  1. Apply gesso to the entire surface of the mixed media paper.
  2. Add a mix of distress inks, sprays to create a base for the background.
  3. Add collage paper using collage medium.
  4. Use stencils to add more layers.
  5. Add a border by using Versamark Ink and embossing powder.
  6. Stamp the sentiment using Obsidian Ink and emboss with clear embossing powder.
  7. Add this to a top folding cardfront using foam squares.

I was experimenting with this mixed media panel a couple of weeks back and stashed it with my other mixed media projects. When I saw the Just a Number stamp set, I knew that it was perfect for this panel. The sentiment even fit in the blank area! How cool is that?!?! 😊

WATERCOLOR EXTRAVAGANZA LAYERING GUIDE
MATERIALS: WATERCOLOR EXTRAVAGANZA STAMP SET, MASKING PAPER, CRISP DYE INKS-SEA SHORE SET AND CHERRY BLOSSOM, BOLD ALPHA DIE, GOLD FOIL WASHI 1″TAPE, ROSE GOLD EMBOSSING POWDER, LEAF CLUSTERS STAMP, VERSAMARK INK, ARTISTS’ WATERCOLOR PAN SET, LINEN FINO WHITE 120 GSM SHEET

I wanted to create a wrapping paper using the Watercolor Extravaganza stamp set. It’s best to stamp one layer at a time and go over the whole sheet. Since this stamp mimics watercolor, you don’t really need to line it up perfectly. The paper has a linen texture so it adds the same texture to the stamped image.

After stamping the flowers, I filled up the spaces in between with a very faint Leaf clusters stamp image.

I also created a tag to match the wrapping paper. I used some leftover watercolored paper, tore the edges and added Rose Gold embossing powder.

Sprigs of lavender and ribbon were added to finish off the gift.
