Sarah-Jane Rae cardsandacuppa: Stampin' Up! UK Order Online 24/7: Watercolored "Helping Me Grow" stamps byStampin' Up! in Rose Red and Wild Wasabi

Hello!

In today's post I have a watercolored card using the Helping Me Grow stamp set. I am loving water colouring right now but I am definitely not any kind of artist. But that's the great thing with stamps and add in some heat embossing to make it even easier and everyone can watercolour! Even me!

I stamped the images in Versamark onto watercolour paper and heat embossed in white before watercolouring with aqua painters and ink pad lids

Both the frame and sentiment are included in the set. There is also a die to cut out this frame out in the Rose Wonder set, just so you know!

I wrapped a little linen thread around the bottom to look like garden twine...

See here, at the bottom of the panel, I masked before stamping a second time as I wanted the whole panel full of flowers for this card.

I stamped the flower heads using versamark for a very pale textured look on the Wild Wasabi card and notice how I wrapped the panel around the spine? Just for a bit of a different look ;-)

I really, really enjoyed making this card, what do you think??

Thanks for looking today,
