Hi, Friends......
I am here with another watercolor card that I made for the Winnie & Walter November Color Combo Challenge. Look at this wonderful inspiration palette that Heather gave us to work from:
I love blue roses and had not yet used my W&W - Mini Scenery: Bed of Roses stamp. I knew it would be perfect for this challenge.
I heat embossed using Stampendous - Clear Embossing Powder in Clear Bark and watercolored my roses with Distress Markers and a waterbrush. I kept this very simple and unadorned to let those roses take the spotlight. CAS is not my usual style, so this is about as clean and simple as I ever get! lol...
Supplies used include:
Winnie & Walter - Mini Scenery: Bed of Roses stamp
Winnie & Walter - Kindness with Evelin T Designs stamp set
Distress Markers in Stormy Sky, Tumbled Glass, and Hickory Smoke
Versamark Ink
Stampendous - Clear Embossing Powder in Clear Bark
Mixed media paper
Core'dinations cardstock
Hope you enjoyed my card. It's been fun playing with simpler cards and some watercoloring techniques. I am a little afraid, however, that if I ignore my scrap bags very long, they will secretly multiply. When I go back to my usual layered cards there might be twice as many scraps as there were before!! Eeek! Thanks so much for stopping by!!!

Cute car picture and great roses card
ReplyDeleteOh Janis, this is just exquisite! I would never have thought to color the roses in shades of blue with the deep brown embossing powder. The result is a magical, wintery rose garden that feels peaceful and so elegant. LOVE this!
