Welcome to the Mama Elephant Release Design Team blog hop!
Our newest release is now live and available for purchase in the store:
http://www.mamaelephant.com
A couple of weeks ago I was playing around with the Sweet Havana Stamp Set and was inspired to try wplus9's Dawn Woleslagle's watercoloring technique for florals. (Check out her video HERE.)
The greetings from the new Bountiful Blessings Stamp Set made the perfect sentiments for these watercolored cards!
I used the Tsukineko Delicata Golden Glitz Ink to stamp the sentiments for my cards. I love the shimmery look of both the Golden Glitz and the Delicata Silvery Shimmer inks. They instantly transform a card to elegance!
I used the Femme Frames Creative Cuts dies to die cut the stamped and watercolored Tim Holtz Watercolor Paper after the inks dried. If you've been looking for the Femme Frames dies Ellen Hutson is currently offering them in a combo pack with several other Mama Elephant dies. You can pick them up HERE.
I used my favorite Scotch Foam Adhesive to pop up the watercolored die cut piece on plain white cards.

Three gorgeous cards. I loved watching you do the watercolor. Taught me how to fill in around the flowers with the greenery and also the shading.
