I know I say it a lot….but this is my FAVORITE NEW STAMP SET (at least today!!!) Plus, a few other new favorites–WOOD TEXTURES DSP and FINELY WOVEN RIBBON. One of the things I like about the “piggies” in this stamp set is how easy you can watercolor–even when you really don’t know how to watercolor! But it looks awesome anyways.
- Berry Burst Card Base: 11″ x 4 1/4″
- Wood Textures DSP: 3″ x 5 1/2″
- Lemon Lime Twist: 2 3/4″ x 3 1/4″
- Shimmery White: 2 1/2″ x 3″
- Powder Pink
- Powder Pink 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon
NOTE: When watercoloring, Shimmery White cardstock works FABULOUS! (Whisper White does not!)
- Stamp image on Shimmery White using Archival Black (you want to make sure it does not smear when watercoloring
- Stamp image again on Powder Pink scrap and cut out with scissors (don’t cut around the tail–just cut it off)
- Watercolor cut out pig using Melon Mambo ink and AquaPainter–just add a little on ears, nose, cheeks and a few highlights
- Watercolor image on Shimmery White using Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist, and some soft sky around the image. ALSO COLOR THE TAIL–no need to color the rest of the pig image
- Adhere cut out pig over pig on Shimmery white. You can see below where the tail WAS NOT cut out on the pink pig, and watercolored on the white one (just keeping the cutting easy!)
That’s it–EASY PEASY but so SUPER CUTE!
