Textured Brayered Background


At my Stamp Technique Club this month we learned
Textured Brayered Background.  
This is such an easy and pretty technique.
We wrapped Baker's Twine around a Brayer, inked it up, then rolled it on the cardstock.
This is the technique card that we will add to our technique booklets.  
Club is the second Tuesday of each month and we have room for more stampers!

This is the first card we made with the technique.
It uses the new set Happy Watercolor.  I love this pretty set.
We will also be using these stamps at our upcoming
Sale-a-bration Stamp Camp.
Hurry!  Early bird price ends this week!!

Here is the second project we made.  
It uses the pretty new heart stamp Flowerfull Heart
the fun new photopolymer set Countless Saying 2,
This is just right to hold a Ghirardelli Chocolate!

Here is the open view of the treat bag.
I love these sweet little bags!  So many possibilities.
For only $4.95 you receive 12 bags and tags and Baker's Twine.
They are only available for a limited time!

Watercolor Wash

This may be my favorite card I've ever designed.

I love simple, pretty cards and watercolor is my favorite medium.
Watercolor wash is super easy but elegant.  You have to use watercolor paper
for the best results.  Using an Aquapainter, moisten the whole sheet.  Then apply ink 
from your desired color of pads, overlapping each color as you go along.  
You will want the paper to stay moist, so squeeze the barrel of the Aquapainter for 
more water as necessary.
I used four shades of blue for this card.

I loved the wash and tree design so much that I decided to apply to to this 
stair step card that we made for Technique Club last month.

Here is another take on the stair step card from club.  
Come to club this Tuesday for more cute projects.
Ask me for details!
