Something Saturday - Stampin' Block Watercolouring

 Hi there Creators

Today I thought after last week (and the promise in my blog I'd show you how to create the background to the card) that I'd better show you how I created the background to the butterfly card with the bluey/green background.

So here goes.... this is the card all finished that I started in the video, figured as I'm on a roll with baby cards for church I'd go for another one 🤣  I've used the Cheerful Daisies Stamp set for the background of the base card and the 3 little flowers in the corner, The colours I used for the watercolouring are Melon Mambo and Gorgeous Grape, Oh and Charming Sentiments Stamp set for the sayings

Stampin' Block watercolouring, Stampin' Up!
Then I also went on to make this card, which uses Azure Afternoon and Sweet Sorbet for the watercolouring bit, then words from Filled with Happiness stamp set, Trucking Along Stamp set and Circle sayings stamps for the flowers.

So to create this effect all you do is take an E Block, then ink up 1/2 with one colour, the other 1/2 with a different colour, then spritz it with water till the colours run in together.  Then press your cardstock onto it, and allow to soak for a few seconds, lift off carefully and either allow it to dry naturally or force the issue with a heat tool😁

If you missed the video, here it is......

I hope this inspires you to have a go too.

Come and join me again next Saturday. God Bless love
