Colour Me...! #78 - Hello Friend card.




This is the first week that I'm part of the group very talented ladies of the current Colour Me...! design team. 
So this is my first contribution to the Colour Me..! Challenge blog as a design team member and I'm looking forward to all the inspiring future Colour Me...! challenges!
The flowers and the background are stamped on watercolour card with Versamark and heat embossed with white embossing powder. Then I coloured the flowers, leafs and background with warm red watercolour and fussy cut the flowers and leafs.
I've placed a sheet of vellum over the background and attached it with some glue dots. 
Finally, I arranged the bouquet of flowers into the  handmade tag.

Dit is mijn eerste week als lid van het huidige Colour Me...! design team.
En ook mijn eerste bijdrage aan het Colour Me...! design blog en zie ik uit naar alle toekomstige uitdagingen!
De bloemen en de achtergrond zijn gestempeld op aquarellpapier met Versamark en head embossed
met wit embossing powder. Daarna heb ik de achtergrond, bloemen en bladeren ingekleurd met warm rode aquarelverf. 
Ik heb een vel vellum over de achtergrond gelegd en deze bevestigd met enkele glue dots.
Als laatste heb ik van de bloemen en bladeren een boeketje gemaakt en in het gat van de handgemaakte tag geschoven.

Versamark watermark stamp pad, Inkadinkado Linen white embossing powder, Crafter's Companion Watercolour card, Stampers Anonymous Flower Garden stamp set, Anna Griffin Rose collection stamp, Aquarel paint.

  6. Thank you Valentyna, nice to meet you to!
    When you heat embossed it first, the fussy cutting is easy and a kind of therapeutic.
    The card was a little bit dull without the embossed BG.
    Hugs, Antonia

    1. Hi Bhavana,
      Thanks for taking the effort to leave a comment! The background looked a little bit dull, so I decided to created this colourful background. That was just what my card needed.

  10. Al the work you put into this card...! But is shows! Like the way you softened the colors from the background by using a sheet of vellum. Nice job. XXX

    1. Hi LInda,
      I had planned the vellum from the start, but it needed a little something. The colourful background did the trick.
