It's time for the Release Rewind over at Paper Sweeties, when we feature old and new together!
I stamped onto watercolor paper and heat embossed the pretty Holly image from the Meet Me Under The Mistletoe stamp set and the heart from the Sweet Treats Stand Add On Stamp Set using Versamark to stamp and White Embossing Powder.
I used my Zig Clean Color Markers and some water to color in the images and then around the outside of them. Then I used a paintbrush and extra water to move the color around careful not to muddy up the colors... and when that was dry, I sprayed the whole thing with a bunch of water so that the colors would blur and run a bit... I love the way it came out!
Then I used the Believe word die from the Joy Sweet Cuts and cut it out with white glitter paper. I actually have left these dies attached and if i cut one, I cut out all three because I know I'll use them later! I cut a strip of colored vellum and attached it across the piece and added the Believe on top. I am really bad at keeping track of the dots for my i's for word dies, so I stopped trying...lol! I either leave them without, or in this case, I used some white Nuvo drops to dot my I. Then I sprinkled around a few green sequins from the Watermelon mix... LOVE that sequin mix!
