FABRIC PAINT & WATERCOLOURS

Yesterday, I showed a card using fabric paint to outline stamping. Today, I have a card that uses fabric paint to outline embossing. I embossed the cardstock with roses, then used gold fabric paint on all the raised lines and left it overnight to dry.

I painted the roses using metallic watercolours. By nature, they are sheer colour so many layers of paint were required. That also created depth. The beautiful calligraphy style of the Quietfire Design stamp finishes this elegant card. I'm really pleased with how this turned out and can see more of these in the future.

 

Thanks for  looking and  have a wonderful day!

 

BUTTON & BOW

I had no idea that black picked up so much light. No flash was used- I try to never use it for cards- but enough light in the room reflected off the black.  The technique here is called Water Colour Whimsy and uses vellum.

You can see from the sample card that it's easy to do, just messy. I love messy! I want to try this on reagular white cardstock, maybe black too, and see how it looks. Is it the WC paint or the vellum that gives the luminosity? Stay tuned.........

 

Enjoy your day - it's a beauty!

Thank you for stopping by.
