I do like the look of watercolouring with no harsh lines from stamping. It gives the whole image a softer appearance. There are a number of ways to achieve this look. Today I show you a simple trick using clear heat embossing.

I stamped the image using versamark ink and heat embossed using clear powder. Now when you watercolour you won’t see the lines and the watercolour will resist the heat embossing allowing you to colour with no lines. One final tip is to use Shimmery White or watercolour cardstock as it will stand up to the water much better than Basic White cardstock.

As you may know, I love colouring. This stamp set, In The Country, is a freebie I got during Sale-a-bration (SAB). Sale-a-bration is one of the best times of the Stampin’ Up! year, for every qualifying purchase you get to choose a freebie from the SAB catalogue. This was one of my freebies.

This stamp set just screams watercolouring to me. I had a lot of fun colouring these images using my watercolour pencils. I find it so relaxing.

I enjoyed making this card. The presents are actually just one stamp. I stamped it a few times and then cut them apart to create this stack of presents. The little kittie sitting atop the pile is just adorable. You just know the whole pile is going to fall over when he jumps off.

I’ve coloured these images using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers which as you know I love. The cards are done in two colour ways. Which do you prefer?

I love pink and blue as a colour combination. It’s one I find myself returning to again and again. This is the gorgeous Framed Florets bundle. The dies cut out not just the stamped images but also these lovely frames. These tiny hearts cut like butter. So easy and so pretty.

The floral images are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. The clean and light feel of this card really appeals to me.

How to Use the Snowball Accent Puff Paint

How to Use the Snowball Accent Puff Paint – Santa Delivery – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK

I’ve used the Santa Delivery stamp set before and am in love with it. It’s just so cute. It really says Christmas to me. I’ve coloured it using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers as before. I do find it so relaxing, I can just lose myself in the colouring.

For a while, I’ve wanted to use the Snowball Accents Puff paint but it has just sat in my stash. I decided to use it at least. Here are my thoughts. It does puff up nicely. The puff is not solid but more squishy. It also is very light which is great for posting. You can see above I’ve used a small line of paint under the wheels of the train. Try to keep your line of paint quite thin as the thicker it is the longer it will take to puff up. Do make sure you get your heat tool, nice and hot before you bring it to the paint. It really needs to be hot to get the paint to puff up. If you get it hot before you bring it to the card there is less chance of your paper warping.

I love this stamp set. The photo doesn’t do this photo justice. When I saw this set in the catalogue I just had to have it. These little mice are just the cutest. I so enjoyed colouring them with the Stmapin’ Blend Alcohol markers. When I’m colouring I relax and totally lose track of time.

Currently, I’m trying to do more than one version of each card I make. Today is no exception. Above is very traditional and below is the Tahitian Tide / Orchid Oasis one. I think I prefer the traditional Real Red and Shaded Spruce but it is a close run contest.

I love this stamp set. Such cute dinky images. I’ve coloured this little girl with the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I love them. Really simply colouring. I used artistic licence with the colour of the bird as I wanted the contrast in colours. The paper is from Hugs of Happiness. It’s a rainbow design and you can see the other half of it below.

This fox looks a lot redder in the photo than he does in real life. I coloured him using a water painter and Cajun Craze ink pad. You can mix colours to colour the little fox in as well. The grass is Old Olive and the sky is Balmy Blue. I love playing with colours. It’s such fun.

I love how cute this card turned out. I’ve combined two stamp sets here, Biggest Wish and Elephant Parade. This baby elephant is so sweet with her pink balloon walking along the top of the sentiment. I thought about putting on more embellishments but really liked this clean and simple look.
