A few days ago I shared a convention swap card that I made with a watercolour background.
Well, for another batch of swaps, I took it a step further and used watercoloring again but this time with Brusho.
To make these background pieces I wet some watercolour paper through, using an Aqua Painter, sprinkled Prussian Blue Brusho onto the paper and then added spatters of Bright Copper Shimmer Paint.
The powder bursts across the water creating different patterns every time. It’s a really vibrant colour.
The colour combo is Balmy Blue, Blueberry Bushel and Whisper White, again with a couple of metallics thrown in for good measure. Of course on the outside of the card, it’s actually the Prussian Blue of the Brusho but the closest SU! colour to go with it and that I used on the insert, was our Blueberry In Color.
The card base is a small square of Balmy Blue. A watercolored background piece was prepared as above, allowed to dry thoroughly and then die cut out with a Stitched Shapes framelit. Using Versamark ink, sentiments from Merry Christmas To All were stamped onto the watercolored piece and heat embossed with White EP. This was then adhered direct onto a Layering Square die cut from Gold Foil and the combined layers were popped up on the card front with dimensionals. A small snowflake was die cut from Whisper White card using the Snowfall thinlits, adhered to the upper right corner of the layers and finished with a Basic Rhinestone.
The Whisper White insert was stamped with a sentiment from Merry Christmas To All using Blueberry Bushel ink.
Thanks for stopping by.
