Thinking About Summer

For this card I used one of my favorite Magenta stamps: Clover Silhouette, designed by Magenta DT member Ellie Knol. This post is also on the Magenta Blog today.

On watercolor cardstock I sprinkled some Nuance powder in the general areas that I planned to stamp. I inked the stamp with Memento Gray Flannel ink and spritzed it with water, then stamped it in the areas where the Nuance had been sprinkled. I stamped it twice, spritzing the stamp once more in between stamping. I lightly spritzed some water to activate the rest of the powder on the card. I added some circles with Memento Teal Zeal ink, using a finger dauber and the Bubble Path Duo stencil.

I added the sentiment by stamping onto a strip of vellum with Distress Oxide Broken China ink. I embossed the sentiment with JudiKins Iridescent Sparkle embossing powder. I wrapped the vellum strip around the back of the watercolor panel and taped it down. I also put dots of Ranger Multi Medium Matte adhesive behind the sentiment to stick it down without showing from the front.
