Watercoloured Background Birthday Card

I'm back again! boy twice in one week hey! 
Today I'm sharing another card I made using the 
Honey Bee Stamp set from Stampin up at my recent event..

I created cards with the stamps plus adding in some fun techniques, 
this time creating a Watercoloured back ground using re-inkers and watercolour paper!

How vibrant do these colours look together??

Colours I used are:

Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, 
Melon Mambo and  Lovely Lipstick, I used the re-inkers of each of 
these colours with an Aqua Painter

the edge of Gold and Black Stripe is a strip of Designer Series paper 
from the Golden Honey Speciality Papers, These pack of 12x12 Papers
are FREE with a £45 purchase of Stampin' Up! products.

The sentiment I've stamped in Versamark ink then heat embossed in 

gold embossing powder, then yes I fussy cut it out, 

the sentiment is from the Happy Birthday to You Stamp Set which is currently FREE

with a £45 purchase of Stampin' Up! products.

21cm x 14.9cm, scored in half at 10.5cm

Stampin' Up! Pretty Kitty Birthday Card

Today I'm sharing with you my daughters birthday card I made her, Sunday was her 3rd birthday, I cant believe she's 3 already! where does the time go??

She loved the card I made for her cousin HERE but I wanted hers to be different, she's a cat lover so the Pretty Kitty stamp set was the perfect choice, with a little watercolouring of course!

I've coloured the cats with my Smoky Slate light and Dark Blends with the colour lifter to add those really light almost white areas... Just like our cat!

To create the watercolour background I used Shimmer cardstock with 

Real Red, Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and Gorgeous Grape watercolour pencils, and an aqua painter. I'm just a little addicted to my watercolour pencils!

Assortment 2 Watercolour pencils are only available until the end of the month (31st August 2018)! so be quick and get them in your basket, you will have so much fun with these pencils - I cant put mine down!!
