Hi there! Today's project in one that my local Stamp Club and my Online Cards & Projects Club made this month as one of their free project that they get each month. It features the stamp set Because I Care, which is a Level 1 Hostess Set. You can earn it for FREE when you place at least a $150 order, either on your own, or if you host a workshop or get friends together to place an order.
I love this set! How gorgeous is that Hydrangea? (Did I spell that right?) I stamped it in Black Staz On ink on Watercolor Paper. You really need the watercolor paper with an image this large. I tried it several times on Whisper White cardstock, & I just couldn't color it so that I liked the outcome. Then, using Aqua Painters, I colored all of the flowers in Bashful Blue ink. While that was drying, I used Old Olive to color the leaf and my Early Espresso Marker to color the stem. Once the flower was dry (very important step!), I went back over the centers of the flowers with Marina Mist ink and my Aquapainter. You could even add more, darker colors like Night of Navy and/or Concord Crush if you wanted more depth, but I wanted my Club gals to not feel overwhelmed.
I will film a video tomorrow on how this was made, so be sure to check back!
Also, be sure to check out my DSP Share and Ribbon Share! They are a great deal!
