Coloring the Calming Camellia Stamp Set

Today I am using the Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils for coloring the gorgeous large camellia in the Calming Camellia Stamp Set. With this exclusive stamp set, you can use just one ink color and create a simple but beautiful card. However, it’s easy to add multiple colors using the Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils.  Even though I am using the watercolor pencils, no water is necessary.  Be sure to watch to the video below showing how simple and quick it is to color the stamped image. Warning though – once you start coloring, you’ll not want to stop!

Nature’s Harvest: Sending Healing Thoughts

Wow, it’s Wednesday, the day is coming to an end and I’m just now working on the post for today!  The Labor Day weekend has thrown me off schedule (LOL).  Today, I’m sharing the last of the August card class Nature’s Harvest cards.  This card is sending healing thoughts.  Notice the textured background?  It’s created using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and included in the Harvest Meadow Suite.  You’ll want to add this embossing folder to your “must have” list as it creates a beautiful textured backdrop. Below you’ll find the list of materials for recreating the Sending Healing Thoughts card and a video to assist with assembly.
