This is my third sneak peek of the new, online exclusive, Among The Swallows. For the first card, I used simple stamping, for the second card, I used the “ink to stamp” technique, and for this card, I used Watercolor Pencils. If you like to color, this method is for you! If you prefer “quick & easy,” I’ve pictured, below, the two cards I made previously, and clicking on them will take you to my original blog post.
I began by stamping the large background stamp on Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, in Early Espresso Ink. Then, I used eight Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Pencils for coloring: Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, Flirty Flamingo, Early Espresso, and Night Of Navy. After coloring, I glued it to a Boho Blue card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
I wanted the sentiment to be inconspicuous, and found a tiny “thanks” in the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set. I stamped it in Crumb Cake Ink, used its Wonderful Thoughts Die for cutting, and glued it in place.
