05.17.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! It’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! This week we have a wonderful inspiration challenge for you…..Picture Perfect Backgrounds! Inspiration challenges are one of my faves, and it seems like y’all really love them, too! For my take on this challenge, I decided to use a Water Painter, along with Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue, to add a wash of color to Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. Hope this card inspires you to create a fun, unique card using this week’s challenge!
For this card, I started with Basic White Thick Cardstock, embossed it with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder, and adhered it to a Basic White Thick Cardstock base. Next, I used a Water Painter, along with Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue, to add a wash of color to some Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. After I dried the paper with a Heat Tool, I layered a slightly larger piece of Basic White Thick Cardstock, underneath, and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it to the card base.
To create the Basic White Thick Cardstock branches, I used one of the Textured Floral Dies. The sentiment (from the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set) was heat-embossed on Basic White Thick Cardstock, using my Versamark Pad and Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder. Tucked underneath the sentiment is Silver & White Sheer Ribbon (cut in half lengthwise). For a bit of bling, I sprinkled on embellishments from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack, Tinsel Gems Four-Pack, and Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.
