Tiled card with watercolouring
This post is for a card following the My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Chellenge #523.
Here is a video of my cards for the MFTWSC523. The ceramic bowl in the picture below was the inspiration for the colours and tiled glazed look.
Colours of items I see everyday inspire the colour combinations of my cards. The items that I used for the card are as follows:
Simon Says Cling Stamp CHUNKY SWEATER
Prima Watercolour Tropical
Rangers super fine white embossing powder
Tsukineko Versamark EMBOSS INK PAD Watermark
Waffle Flower A2 Layer dies – used for the rectangle die cut
Hero Arts Nesting SQUARE Infinity Dies – used for the square die cut
Whimsy Stamps QUICK STRIPS Dies
Darice MULTICOLOR Foam Sheets
Crafter’s Companion 3D SMALL FOAM PAD
Scor-Tape 0.25 Inch Crafting Tape
Neenah Classic Crest 110 LB SMOOTH SOLAR WHITE – used for card base
I created a further two cards – one with a black card base and one with a white card base.
Painted the flowers with watercolours and added pearl-like gems to centre of the flowers. For the card with the white cards base I added some glaze with Ranger Glossy Accents Glue Dimensional Adhesive to some fo the flowers for an extra shine.
