One Stamp, 4 cards

Hi Friends,

I am back with few Seasons Greeting cards I completed yesterday. All of these cards have been made using only one background stamp.


This time I used Ranger's water coloring paper and I am pretty happy with the end result. I Heat embossed these with various colours embossing powders and then water colored them using DI.
I tried to give a modern looking feel to the cards by die cutting them in various shapes and then assembling them on the CS.



For the first card, I used white embossing powder. I water coloured using DI with colors like - Spun sugar, Shaded lilac,Peacock feathers and Evergreen bough. To pop the image further, I glued it to grey color paper and finally adhered the image on Voilet CS using foam tape for the extra dimension. Stamped the sentiment on a vellum paper and then used stickles to make some dots here and there for that extra shine and glitter.

 

 For the second card, I heat embossed the same background stamp using yellow embossing powder.
water colored through DI - Shaded Lilac. Used lawn Fawn's circle dies to cut the image in various size circles. Adhered all the circles on the white CS using foam tape. I used white stackles and make dots on the CS.
 
On the third card, I used silver embossing powder. Water colored using DI - Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar and Shaded lilac. Used lawn Fawn's sqaure shape dies to cut them in various size of squares and pasted them on dark grey using foam tape. I used dark grey CS as it was going through the silver embossing powder. Stamped sentiment on the bottom left sqaure using a vallum die and Momento black ink. used pink stickles to create dots and there by hiding the glue marks that appear on the vellum. Finally through a white gel pen made the faux stitched lines around the edges of the CS for the completed look.

 
For the last card, I used Pink embossing powder. Water colored using DI - Seedless preserves, Spice marmalade. To assemble the card I used a green pattern paper to give some more color on the card.


 
 Hope you like my cards! Thanks for stopping by ...

All the Best

Hello,

This is a All the Best card that I have made for my Sister-in-law. This card has been made through technique - Embossing with distress Inks inspired by a YouTube video - Embossing with Distress Inks which is new to me.

For embossing instead of using VersaMark Watermark Ink Stamp, I have used distress inks like - Peacock Feathers, Vintage Photo, Worn Lipstick, Broken China, Peeled Paint. Along with Copper, Silver and Clear embossing powders
Copper and Silver embossing powders are giving double shade to the snowflakes. On the other hand, Clear embossing powder is giving shine and shimmer to the snowflakes.

This is my entry for Lulupu challenge # 26 - Try Something New !
