Click on the link to get all the details for ways to color your dry embossed
images on your cards and to see all the girls beautiful card samples.
This has been the most wonderful technique..This time I used
Distress Oxide Inks and watercoloring to color my beautiful
New to me SSS "Darcey Bouquet Set" of one 3D Folder and
3 matching Flower Dies..so beautiful!
I ordered the set...to make a special card for my dear forever
(60 years) special friend, Daisy.
Sweet Daisy passed away a week after a fall at the age of 94 before
I received the set. So instead I made a special thank you/
thinking of you card for our dear friend, Martha.
Martha has been like family to Daisy for 55 years and
a loving caregiver the last few years.
Thank you and Thinking of you dear Marthađź’•
I misted my new Simon Says Stamp 3D Darcy Bouquet Folder
with water using T.H. Distress Sprayer then placed A2 Neenah
Solar White cardstock in folder and thru Big Shot.
I got a beautiful detailed floral image. I made several for future
cards. Then die cut the 3 flowers from just partial 3D images
of just the flowers using Strathmore Mixed Media Paper
so I could then watercolor the flowers.
I used i crafter Blender Brushes to blend Distress Oxide Inks:
Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and Cracked Pistachio inks
onto the 3D background.
Next used the Winsor+Newton Cotman Watercolours and
#1 Princeton watercolor brush to paint the die cut flowers and
the yellow 3D flower image. When flowers dried I used a stylus
to shape the die cut flowers and attached using SU Mini
Dimensionals.
Attached Strathmore Black MM layer to Neenah A2 White
cardbase then attached 3D cardfront, which I trimmed a bit
to get a nice black border to make the images pop.
Added a Penny Black "Smile All Season" stamped sentiment
and Done! I loved the results. BTW, yellow and green were
Sweet Miss Daisy's favorite colors:-)
Celebrating Daisy's 85th Birthday with friends!
Daisy is now in heaven with her family, friends and cats
after a wonderful sweet chapel memorial with her
close and forever friendsđź’•
Love and Hugs dear friends..thank you for visiting.
