Happy Sunday everyone,
I hope you are all fit and well??
I have been trying to organise my crafting life and sort through
my stash whilst suffering with a horrid virus again!!.. Ewwww
Having had to pack most of my stash away during Christmas, each year
I find it harder and harder to get it out and sort through it all again!
..but i'm being ruthless this year, through the coughing and sneezing!!
Here's a quick card I made for a 70th Birthday
Simply stamped onto watercolour card with versafine
I coloured with promarkers, I know it's not advised to use
alcohol markers on watercolour card as it can be very thirsty but I
really do love the way it holds the colour making it even more vibrant.
Supplies:
Carabelle Studio Stamp ~ Fishes
Promarkers/Aqua Markers
Versamark/Versafine ~ Onyx Black
Clear Embossing Powder/Heat Tool
Ground Espresso Distress Ink

With a watery wash of watercolour around the trio I
covering the card with versamark embossing ink and triple embossed
with clear embossing powder giving a crisp and shiny surface.
Bending the card cracks the embossed surface...
and a little ground espresso distress ink helps to bring out those cracks!
Mounted onto an 7 x 5" card I decided not to put the big 70 on the front
and chose to place it inside as I knew the fish loving receiver would probably
want to keep this card up to remind him of his hobby rather than his age...!!
Apologies to those blogs i've not payed a visit to yet, comments and email I've left
unanswered. I'm hoping to have a catch up later today when my heads a little less foggy.
Wishing you a relaxing Sunday.
Warm Hugs & Wishes
