On my card today, I use Unity Stamp – October Kit Of The Month and Treats of Friendship stamp set from Close To My Heart (retired).
I stamped the tea cup and sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black on Canson watercolor paper and watercolored it with Spectrum Aqua Markers. I tear the bottom of the paper after that.
For the bottom background, I did heat-embossing resist with Koi watercolor paint. I stamped the snowflake with Versamark ink pad directly on the watercolor card base and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder (CTMH) and Craft Heater. I added the Koi watercolor paint on it and love watching how the heat-embossed images resist the paint 🙂
I wrapped some May Arts Ribbon – Natural Twine around the panel and added it on the card base with 3D foam tape. I finished the card with some white snowflake sequins that I got from a crafty friend.
That’s all my card today and I hope you all got to enjoy your cup of tea today 🙂 THANKS a latte for visiting me today!
