Jenny Chilton's Avalon Camp 2019 - Project #10 - Watercoloured Leaves

For Project #10 we stamped the leaf images and then spritzed the card with water.  I must have over spritzed as my colour faded a little too much so I dried it with a heat gun and re stamped the leaves so there was some definition.  We finished the card by white embossing the sentiment on Basic Black and adding the White Bakers Twine.
Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Beautiful You, Rooted in Nature
Card: Blackberry Bliss, Watercolour Paper, Basic Black, Whisper White
Ink: Blackberry Bliss, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lime Twist, Poppy Parade
Finishing Touches: Bakers Twine
Cool Tools: Water Spritzer, Embossing Buddy, White E/Powder, Heat Tool, Paper Towels, Plastic Sheeting, Dble Sided Tape

CAS Mix Up April 2019 - Reminder for Layered Stamping With Heat Embossing - Fabulous Flamingo

Hello Everyone,
Today's card is a reminder that you still have time to join us for this months CAS Mix Up Challenge until the 24th April.  The challenge is to use Layered Stamping with Embossing powders + Stamping + your Choice.  The Flamingo has two layers of embossing powder and the outline is stamped with Stazon Black.  The outline was a bit of an issue with this stamp set, I found that it did not match the layers very well so I decided not to emboss it and found it was much easier.  All of my design elements are heat embossed and I added a bit of watercolouring on the water.
CAS Mix Up: Layered Stamping, Heat Embossing, Stamping, Watercolouring

Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Fabulous Flamingo, 
Card: Thick and Thin Whisper White, Basic Black
Ink: Versamark, Stazon Black, Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Old Olive

CAS Mix Up April 2019 - Layered Stamping With Heat Embossing

Hi Stampers,
Welcome to a new challenge at CAS Mix Up.  I am Hostess this month and I thought it might be fun to try Layered Stamping with Embossing Powders + Stamping + Your Choice.  It was a technique that I had not tried before and I enjoyed creating my card and using some of the Embossing Powders I have in my stash. The Roses have been created using some old layering stamps from Kitchen Sink and I used 4 different colours of embossing powder to create them.  The leaves have 3 layers of embossing on them.  I love how this gorgeous rose looks.  I double stamped the sentiment too, once in black and then heat embossed with gold to create a shadow and finished off with some Sequins.
Thanks to Bozena for being our Guest Designer this month.
