Hello everyone… How’s everyone doing? Our Summer days lately have been over 90 F degree and high humidity. I am a girl who was born in a tropical country, and still cannot bear with the humidity! I hope you all are staying cool and drink lots of liquids… Enough with the weather… Now… I have a card with Summer colors to share with you all.

I created this card with using the Together Digital Stamp Set from Graciellie Design. I resized and printed the image and sentiment in black color on a white cardstock using my inkjet printer. Then, I cut the flower with 2 sizes of the Catherine Pooler’s Design – Postage Stamp Die Set. I colored the only small die cut to crate a spotlight colored imaged. I used Sakura Koi watercolor paints on the flower and added some glitter on it using the Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Brush Pen.

For the sentiment, I cut it using one of the Our Daily Bread Designs – Oval Stitched Rows Dies.

I created the background panel using Smooshing Technique with Distress Oxide Inks (Peeled Paint and Fossilized Amber). It is one of the fun ways of creating watercolored background with layers of coIores. So, I added the inks (one color at a time) on my craft mat, sprayed with water, and smooshed in the watercolor paper. I dried the panel every time I added colors.

I trimmed the watercolored panel to fit on an A2 white card. I added it on the card with dries-clear adhesive glue. Then I added the large postage die cut panel on the card with adhesive-glue, and I added the smaller die cut in the middle of it with 3D foam for extra dimension to it. Next, I adde the sentiment on the card with 3D foam tape and finished the card with some white pearl gems.

Thank you for being here today… Have a wonderful day and see you on next project!
