My July card-making workshop is scheduled for this coming Sunday and I had a special request for a design that might suit an 18th birthday. The birthday girl's party theme is cowboys and cowgirls - what fun! In keeping with the theme I've chosen a timber background made using the Hardwood background stamp and the new Tip Top Taupe in-colour card. I've added some sponging in brown inks and touches of blue with an aqua painter to give the background a little depth.
The featured party hat imagery comes from the super fun new Silhouettes & Script stamp set. It's been inked in Rose Red with Watermelon Wonder edges. I then fussy cut it and lifted it on dimensionals over gold sequin trim and a background of watercolour paper that has been painted with a dash of Watermelon Wonder.
A strip of the new Watermelon Wonder lace, a little gold bordering and a 'wild west' style gold star embellishment complete the design.
If you would like to see this design and other watercolouring ideas demonstrated in person, please contact me to reserve your place in this weekend's class! For more details view my facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/events/1182104118467483/
So much fun - it's like a party on a card! Love the mix of natural, pretty and fancy!
