Here for You Card | Julee Tilman

Hi Shimmerz friends! It's Julee Tilman popping in to share a fun little card using a super easy watercolor background technique.

I've created a short sped up process video if you'd like to see how this card was made, you can watch it below or on my Youtube Channel.

Whenever I'm feeling like I just don't know where to start on a card, this is one of my go to techniques. Just plopping watercolors on a page.  Here I used Walking a Tight Heliotrope Spritz and Grape Escape Vibez to create the background, finishing off with some splatters in the same colors and a bit of Shimmeringz Goldie Lox.

Next I stamped the flower and quickly watercolored with the same colors, adding some Bamboo Leaf Spritz and Palm Reader Vibez in for the leaves. Once I was done with this I fussy cut the image and added some extra shimmer with Angel Wings Shimmerz. The sentiment was stamped directly onto the watercolor background panel and I matted with black cardstock and an A2 card base.

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

Today is Full of Possibilities by Astrid

Hello Shimmerz friends, thanks for dropping in! Today I have a tag card to share with you:

The outside was created by adding texture paste through various stencils, a thick layer of gesso and then adding colour with a combination of Distress Oxides and Shimmerz, using the following products:

Coloringz: No Yoking

Vibez Palm Reader

Vibez Jeni B Bleu

InkLingz : Tarnished Treasure

I love how the shimmering sprays work together with the Oxide Inks and how they puddle and pool in between the textures created with the texture paste.

Here is the inside of the card:

The die cuts on the tags where partly coloured with the sprays as well, the stencilling in the background was done with the Tarnished Treasure paint and a blending tool. I love the subtle shimmer it gives....

Well, that's it for today, thanks for your visit like always! And don't forget our incentives programme:
