For the Love of Cardmaking

I'm sad to say that this is the last Repeat Impressions Challenge that i'll be participating in. I've officially stepped down from the Design team after this post. I'm going to miss my Rock Star teamies and all of the wonderful stamps, but feel that it's time to move on for now. You will be seeing the stamps that i own on various projects though.

A Winter Birthday card!

Hi Everyone, today i would like to share a card that i made using a Great Impressions Stamp that i've had for awhile called Chickadee on Winter Branch. If you follow me you know that i really want to watercolor. lol! I just love the look so, with that said, I water colored this stamped image with my Stampin'up and Marvy Uchida markers, and brush after stamping it onto Watercolor paper with Staz-on Black ink. The Snow i raised with a 3D snow that i found at Walmart and then i added a "Snow" glitter over the top while it was wet, The happy Birthday sentiment is a die from QuicKutz with the same "Snow" mix as above.

Well, here is another card that I've completed using the Art Impressions stamps and Markers to water color a scene. I've just been experimenting and practicing the technique and i'm really enjoying the process.
