Hi there. On my last blog post, I decided to giveaway THIS stamp set…
I thought it was a perfect set to pair up with the new Better Together release from Simon Says Stamp. I wanted to create a card to show you just that and show you how to look at your stamps in a different way.
When I first saw all of the hearts, I thought they would make great balloons…
I created balloons by stamping a smaller heart below each of the larger hearts upside down. This creates a bottom to the balloon. I thought all of the balloons would be fun paired with THIS monster stamp set. For the coloring, I chose to use my Peerless Watercolor. I love how vibrant they are! Adding glossy accents on top gives it the realistic look of a balloon…
Speaking of watercolor, I used the same colors but with much more water for a toned down version of the same card…
I like to emboss my images when I watercolor because it allows the color to pool up in one area. I embossed the sentiment as well to make it pop…
