Hi, yesterday I shared some pretty colour combinations for use with the Watercolor Wings stamp set. Today I’m going to show you how some of these colour combinations look on a finished card plus I have a little tip for getting a little more out of your stamp set.
Here’s the card…
It is a very simple card as you can see. You could easily step it up to the next level by adding some texture to the white background (whether by using stamps, embossing folders or embossing paste) and by popping up some of the butterflies.
Did you notice that the pink butterfly was actually created from the big butterfly stamp? All I did to achieve this look was to stamp half of the butterfly and angle the antennae to give the appearance of a side view. The easiest way to apply ink to only half of the stamp is to place a post-it note over the part you don’t want ink on. Ink up the stamp. Remove the post-it note and stamp. Easy! Another way is to use a sponge dauber to add ink to the areas you want (this is also great for when you want to add multiple colours of inks to a stamp).
I had to finish off the card with a layer of Wink of Stella over the butterfly wings and some rhinestones to add a bit of bling! And with that the card was finished. I hope you’ll give it a try!
