					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week we are celebrating Moms over <a href="http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Stuck On U Sketches challenge blog</strong></a>! Today, I&#8217;d love to share with you a project I created for their new Die Cut Challenge this week. The theme is &#8220;Mom&#8221;, create any projects using diecuts and with the theme.</p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/helengullett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/IMG_7405.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-custom" title="" src="https://i0.wp.com/helengullett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/IMG_7405.jpg?resize=650%2C650" alt="" width="650" height="650" /></a></p>
<p>This time I made a watercolored card with Rose die cuts on it. I cut the <strong><a href="http://www.silhouettedesignstore.com/?page=view-shape&amp;id=76819">Rose Lace Flourish</a></strong> out of <a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=382&amp;ci=23" target="_blank"><strong>White Daisy Cardstock</strong></a> with my Silhouette Cameo. First, I rezied them in 3 sizes and the cut them. After I cut the flowers, I trimmed the leaves off. Then I trace the flowers on a piece of watercolor paper. I started coloring inside the rose circles using <strong><a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=1002">Watercolor pencils</a></strong> and blended the colors using aqua brush, then I decided to add some light blue.</p>
<p>I am not patient enough to let the paper dries so I used my <a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=510&amp;ci=1704" target="_blank"><strong>Craft Heater</strong></a> to speed it up. Once the paper was dry completely, I added the die cut roses using Tombow mono liquid glue using the fine tip.</p>
<p><a href="https://i0.wp.com/helengullett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/IMG_7406.jpg"><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-custom" title="" src="https://i0.wp.com/helengullett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/IMG_7406.jpg?resize=650%2C650" alt="" width="650" height="650" /></a></p>
<p>The flowers needs something, so I took my Wink of Stella Glitter brush and added some glitter on them. And woalah! Love them! Soft and glittery now <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p>While waiting for the glitter to completely dry, on a strip of vellum, I stamped the sentiment from <strong><a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=8339&amp;ci=1949">Happy To Be Friends stamp set</a></strong> with <a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=972&amp;ci=1703" target="_blank"><strong>VersaMark Ink Pad</strong></a>, added some <strong><a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=8054&amp;ci=1561">Ranger Princess Gold Embossing powder</a></strong> and heat set it using <strong><a href="http://creatingjoyfully.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=510&amp;ci=1704" target="_blank">Craft Heater</a></strong>. Using a adhesive runner I added the vellum paper on the watercolor paper, and then added them on the card base.</p>
<p>My card is pretty simple and I keep it less bulky. I hope you to see you playing with us this week!
