Today I have a bright red card to share with you that was inspired by Try a Sketch on Tuesday sketch #642.

For once I followed the sketch very closely! I didn't see a need to change anything up this time, so I didn't.
To create this card I started by using Stampin' Up's! retired Stamparatus. I inked up my stamps using Stampin' Write markers (real red, old olive, garden green and shaded spruce). Then I spritzed them with a touch of water and stamped them onto watercolor paper. I used water painters to fill in the color. They grab the color that I stamped and fills everything in nicely. I let it dry, then reinked the stamps, spritzed them with water and stamped over the dry image. Why? Because the image faded so the details needed to be added in again.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!

The floral stamp set is beautiful... using the colored cardstock and red ink was perfect and really showed the variance of color in the floral and the leaves. And assuming you fussy-cut, great job.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne! I did fussy-cut everything. It just didn't look right with it die cut this time.
DeleteThe detail on the stamp is amazing!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Melissa! I guess I get a little picky and the dies don't cut close enough, so I haul out the scissors!
