Well the weather has certainly matched the theme for today... water...colour everywhere! But the water here is at least bright and cheerful 😊. The mix and match today is not just stamps but dies and embossing folders as well! The stamps are from the Perched in a tree stamp set and the Christmas classics stamp set.
The die I've used is from the Christmas pinecone set and the embossing folder I've used is the Snowflake Sky one.Again I've mixed and match latest release and well loved items from my stash.
But the cards all start with a wonderfully vibrant and fun watercolour background. Starting with a piece of Fluid 100 watercolour paper which I spritzed liberally with water. I then added splodges of 3 shades of green on to the wet paper and watched them swirl and move around the paper.
This time I did leave the piece to dry naturally. In fact I left it overnight to dry completely. The reason for this is that I knew I wanted to use quite an intricate die with it that would tear the wet fibers if used too soon.
