Holiday Cheer | Julee Tilman

Hi Shimmerz friends! It's Julee Tilman popping in with another shimmery card creation. This go round, I wanted to just watercolor, so pulled out a large flower stamp and some favorite Shimmerz colors and got to work.


The poinsettia image is embossed in white on a large panel of watercolor paper.  I then colored the poinsettia with Great Fruit, the greenery with Emerald City and did a wash around the image with Ride the Tide. I love how soft these colors are.



Next I got out a Cut-Align ruler and pen knife to help me cut the panel down to card front size without cutting off the petals or leaves. This large stamped image is larger than a card front and I love the way it just kind of sprawls off the edges.

Once the panel was cut, I added the stamped sentiment, then masked off the flower and sentiment with the stamps and splattered some Well Blue Me Down and some Snow Storm splatters around the edges.


A black mat sets it off and helps ground the sentiment a bit.  I embellished with some holeless sequins, a few pearls and a bit of sheer ribbon to finish things off.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope your day Shimmerz!
