Sail Away

This is the card I made for my nephew, Craig's 18th birthday. I thought it would be a good card to do at Bel Air Baptist Church's Creative Card Group tonight (10th May at 7.30) and Friday morning (13th May) at my watercolouring technique class. Come and see the different ways that you can do watercolouring. On this card I have used blender pens and the stamp pads.
I will also demonstrate with the Wonder Watercoloring Crayons as well as the Pastels.
It's hard to see but for the sails I have used sahara sand and shaded with crumb cake, the water is marina mist and the yacht, early expresso.

Pop back tomorrow to see the 2nd card that we made.

Stamp Set: Sail away, bring on the cake

Bloomin' With Beauty on vellum

This was a fun technique to do. Base card is pretty in pink with a layer of whisper white. Stamp 3 images of the carnation flower on the vellum using versamark watermark. Emboss with white embossing powder. Use a blender pen the Stampin Pastels to colour in the flowers. Position the vellum over a layer of whisper white, noting where to place the "heartfelt" stamped image and the "birthday celebrations" stamped image.
