stamp review crew: sale-a-bration

Hello friends! Welcome to another fun Stamp Review Crew blog hop. This time, instead of showcasing one stamp set, we are shining a spotlight on products in the first ever fall Sale-a-Bration brochure. These are products you can earn for free with a qualifying purchase.

I used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set for my projects. I used some fun watercolor techniques on my two projects.

On this first card, I stamped the dahlia in VersMark and heat embossed in white on watercolor paper. Next, I painted on a coat of clear water and dropped in color with ink refills and a paint brush. Once this first layer was dry, I went back in with my paint brush and added some deeper color to the flowers. I love this loose watercolor technique. So easy. Colors used are: Magenta Madness, Misty Moonlight and Balmy Blue.

I used the same colors for my second card and added a little Pale Papaya. I free hand painted a watercolor background.

Once the panel was dry, I stamped the flowers and sentiment in black and die cut with a stitched rectangle die. Panel is mounted on a card base embossed with the Painted Texture 3D emboss folder.
