The theme of this blog hop couldn't be better! I am finally able to share my team swap design AND it just so happens to use watercolour pencils!
I used the NEW Words of Cheer Bundle for this design with a colour palette of: Crumb Cake, White, Evening Evergreen, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Crushed Curry.
Not only did I use Watercolour pencils, I used them on Crumb Cake cardstock instead of Basic White! Did you know you can use Stampin' Up's® Watercolour pencils on a variety of colours of cardstock? Yup, it's true.
In order to colour, I stamped the large floral image in Versamark Ink and then heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. To colour, I used Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Crushed Curry Watercolour Pencils as well as my Blender Pen. I love the soft look you can create with the pencils and how varying the pressure you use can change the shade from subtle to rich.
For the overall card, I used a base of Evening Evergreen. I layered this with a piece of Crumb Cake that had the floral image stamped 2x using White Craft Ink. I die cut the two layers of the happy die using Evening Evergreen and Cherry Cobbler and stamped Holidays with Evening Evergreen. I finished the look with 3 of Stampin' Up!'s® Pearl Basic Jewels.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog. Be sure to 'hop' to as many of the others as you can!
