I'm head over heals in love with this new Designer Series Paper called Watercolor Wonder #132994. It is so beautiful and frankly versatile and what papercrafter doesn't love paper that can do it all!
The look is soft and the designs are anywhere from Chevron to dots to florals. I NEED it ALL!
First I came up with this design, or one very close to it, for a local swap my group held. I really like this card. The DSP layer is popped up with lots of dimension, that is what makes it so pretty. I stamped the greeting from the Peachy Keen stamp set #133110 wood and #133113 clear in Calypso Coral.
The Petite Petals flower #133152 wood and #133155 clear are punched out using the matching Petite Petals Punch #133322 which I LOVE! Let's be frank here...who really loves to "fussy cut" out anything? I mean if we loved to FUSSY CUT we wouldn't have punches, die cuts and electronic cutters. Right?! That is my story and I am sticking with it! FUSSY coloring yes! FUSSY cutting oh NO!
When it came time to come up with a design for my swaps for the Leadership Convention I just came home from in Houston, TX I converted the above design into this:
The few small additions were a change in the layout from landscape to portrait, the added stitched ribbon, a change in colors and the dotted dimension near the bottom which was added with the Decorative Dots Texture Impressions Embossing Folder #133520. This is an item you can only receive for FREE January 26th-March 31st for ordering $50 in Merchandise during our big Sale A Bration event.
