Hello!
Erum here with a watercolor card. Today, I will be watercoloring with the Metallic Shimmer Ink Sprays using the Dahlia Blossoms Stamp Set. I have done this previously several times, you can find three such examples here, here and here.
I heat embossed two flowers and several leaves with Pure White Embossing Powder. Next, I used Ocean Waves and Lavender Fields Metallic Shimmer Inks Sprays to color my images. You can watch the process video at the end of this post, but I will give you a quick explanation here as well.
To begin, I apply water to the images heavily and then drop in color. I will switch between the colors, mix them, and play around until I am happy with the look.
As you can see, the result is always different but beautiful every single time.
After I was done with the watercoloring, I fussy cut the images and moved onto the card front.
To prepare the card front, I added a bit of water and then added tons of splatters of diluted ink sprays in both Ocean Waves and Lavender Fields. After this watercolor dried, I added fine black splatters.
Next, I popped all the stamped images from Dahlia Blossoms Stamp Set with foam tape including the sentiment which I heat embossed on black cardstock strip with Pure White Embossing Powder.
In the end, I added some sequins to finish my card.
