Watercolor with Fabulous Florets 4

This is the last card in my watercolor fabulous florets class. I think this one is probably my favorite. I just love the look that the "en francais" stamp gives. To me it gives a card a certain elegance about it. It may be my opinion only on it though.

For this card I used all Stampin' Up! products, as usual. I used the stamp sets fabulous florets, en francais and word play. The card stock colors used are melon mambo, whisper white, and watercolor paper. Tools used are aqua painters along with the classic stamp pads.
It is fun working with the water color technique. This one is probably one of the messier ways to do it, but not very messy at all really.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting my blog. Please leave a comment and in that comment tell me what is your favorite type of water coloring technique. I would also love to know out of the 4 cards which one was your favorite.

Now go-n-stamp!!

Watercolor with Fabulous Florets 3

This is the third card in the Watercolor Fabulous Florets class. One more to go. It took me some time to make this card. I kept moving things around and trying them in different spots until I finally decided I liked it this way the best.

The difference I used for water coloring on this card was that I used watercolor pencils and blender pens. My last card I am going to use the aqua painters. There are so many different ways you can watercolor. Some of them are less messy than others. Guess which type of like? If you said less messy, that would be me. I really have a hard time using glitter and embossing powders because of the mess. I still need to do it though. I have to think about my customers and not myself all of the time.
I used the same card stock colors and designer series paper in this card that I used for the other 2 cards in the "Fabulous Florets" watercolor class. I also used the flower garden embossing folder for the first time on this card. As always, everything I used to make this card is by Stampin' Up!
I hope you enjoyed visiting my blog. You can always leave a comment.

Watercolor with Fabulous Florets 2

Finally, I was able to work on this card again yesterday and able to get it finished. My husband has been on vacation this week. I wanted to make sure I spent time with him and not being in my basement all of the time working on cards. Due to this reason I have postponed my class a week.
I created this card using a different way of water coloring than the last card I made. If you are wondering the difference, you either need to come to my class or maybe if you leave a comment and ask I will tell you that way too.
I used the Fabulous Florets stamp set and the sentiment stamp from the Upsy Daisy stamp set. Cardstock colors are daffodil delight, wild wasabi, whisper white tangerine tango, and watercolor paper. I used the Big Shot with the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die, and the flower garden embossing folder. All of these products are Stampin' Up!. Like I said, as for the water coloring, you will need to come to my class or leave a comment.
Thanks for visiting. I hope you have been inspired to create a card yourself. Have a great week.
