Happy Watercolour Class.

Last night I held a class here using the Happy Watercolour Stamp Set and the Watercolour Note cards and envelopes. The first card had a Baked Brown Sugar base. We punched out the Tag using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch from the Spring/Summer Catalogue and stamped the flowers using Stazon Ink as it is permanent and dries quickly. I cased this card from one which we made at our January team training day in the Wirral. The original was designed by Monica Gale and you can see it HERE

The second card was fairly straight forward. The background stamp was used three times without re inking to get the shadow effect. The sentiment is from the Wetlands stamp set. The butterfly was punched out of Champagne Glimmer Card stock using the Bitty Butterfly punch.

For this card I used the spotty stamp inked in colours to match the zig zag pattern on the right hand side of the card.

A little decoupage for the petals can be seen here to give a bit of dimension to the card.

The sentiment in this card comes from the Happy Day stamp set. The gold fancy foil vellum and Watercolour designer Paper was die cut using the very handy Banners Framelits Dies.
A few gold sequins add a bit of bling!

Gold Baker's Twine was used for the bow on the main stem of the flowers.
The sentiment is in the Happy Watercolour Stamp Set.
