Hello friends!
Svitlana here. Today I want to share a quick, easy, and elegant Hugs & Kisses card with you.
For my front panel, I used a paper from the Enchanting Washes 6×6 Paper Pack. I really love this set, it has many different beautiful designs of watercolor washes. It's very convenient to have such paper on hand when you need a card and don’t have time to make your own watercolor wash.
Of course, here a real watercolor wash can be used as well as washi tape.
I foam mounted the panel onto a white card base.
Next, I white embossed on Vellum a floral cluster from the Forever in Love Stamp Set and die cut it using the coordinating die.
I made a sentiment using a stamp from the Halftone Hearts Stamp Set, which I stamped onto a Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock with the Jet Black Crisp Dye Ink. After that, I die cut it using the matching die.
After that, I popped the sentiment onto the floral cluster die-cut. Then I adhered the die-cut onto the card, applying a liquid glue in the areas under the sentiment so it’s not visible.
Also, I added small dots of a liquid adhesive in the top and bottom parts of the die-cut, placing them under the white-embossed outlines. Here, I used a very strong liquid adhesive as I needed the dots to be very small (to hide them under the white embossing) and at the same time, I needed this small amount of glue to hold the die-cut.
Lastly, I added several silver crystals to accentuate the card.

Wow that is beautiful!! That background paper is fantastic!
Thank you!
Your card’s are always beautiful, Svitlana! I also love the Enchanting Washes paper pack. I have a problem adhering vellum. Do you mind sharing what “very strong liquid adhesive” that you use. Thank you!
Thank you, Patricia! I can absolutely share my adhesive – Ranger Multi Medium Matte. Mostly I use it with small non paper embellishments and it holds them very well, it also dries clear. And it does a great job when you need a tiny dot under an embossing to hold a vellum. Hope this will help :)
Beautiful
Thank you, Linda!
Elegant & beautiful! The wc wash paper is a great idea–onto my wishlist!
It’s a great pack! Very beautiful. Thank you, Greta!
Hi Svetlana. This is such a beautiful card. It certainly doesn’t looks quick and easy – it looks as though you spent hours creating it. Love the colour and everything about it. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you, Bev! It totally was thanks to the design paper.

Great ideas. I never thought of die cutting using vellum. Just did it for another card and it looks great. Thanks.
