I made this card awhile back and just never got around to photographing it. Today, was a good day to share this with you as I am preparing for my Open House for tomorrow. At the time that I made this card, I was experimenting with the Brusho Crystal Colour and thought this detailed hostess stamp set called Cozy Cottage would be perfect to use with it.
I love this stamp set embossed. It makes it look soft like a cozy cottage should feel. Gold embossing paired with Vanilla cardstock is fantastico if you ask me. (Note: I did use watercolor paper for the main panel and then attached it to a Thick Very Vanilla card base).
I sprayed the watercolor paper with water and carefully shook Prussian Blue in the sky area and Yellow and Mossy Green in the rest of the area. I then sprayed it a little more and then ended up grabbing my Aqua Painter to blend the blue for the sky a little bit more. I got lucky as it turned out even better than I thought for my first go. :)
As I was adding the sentiment, I thought how great it would be to send this to my mom, but she has been gone for quite some time now. However, I do have a perfect person to send this to- my daughter who stayed in her college town to work for the summer. I barely get to see that busy girl, and this will be perfect to send to her. :)
