Watercolor Pencils on Colored Cardstock with Hand-Penned Suite Collection

Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for an all-occasion project created with the Hand-Penned Suite Collection where I have used Watercolor Pencils onto Basic Gray CS that I blended out with our pens.

As always, your Supplies and Instructions are below. I forgot to add our Versamark Pad, White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, and Smoky Slate CS corner accents that I created, to the Supplies.

I started out with an A2 Basic Gray card base and layered a piece of of Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper cut from the largest scallop from the Scalloped Contour Dies with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I then layered a Mint Macaron and white stripe DSP from the same suite collection down the middle of the card.

I then stamped the large multi-floral image x2 from the Hand-Penned stamp set onto a piece of Smoky Slate CS with Versamark and heat embossed with white powder.

I die-cut these images from the coordinating Penned Flowers Dies with my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I made sure to cut these out first as opposed to color with our pencils and then cut. This way, if I mess up, I didn’t waste time with the Watercolor Pencil coloring.

The flowers were lightly colored in with a Basic Gray Watercolor Pencil using our Blender Pens to pull the pencil out. The leaves were colored in with Garden Green.

I cut a piece of Basic White CS with the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle. I lined up the Smoky Slate images at the top left and bottom right of the image panel and taped them to the panel with painter’s tape. I flipped this over and trimmed the excess off.

Using my Stamparatus with the image panel on the foam grid mat, I lined up the floral image again about 1/4″ ahead of where the Smoky Slate accent corners will be adhered and stamped the image with Basic Gray ink.

The sentiment was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black. The Highland Heather flowers and Mint Macaron leaves were stamped off x2 and stamped onto the image panel.

The floral accent corners were adhered to the image panel with Mini Black Stampin’ Dimensionals, as was the image panel to the card base.

I would love to see what you create with this suite collection and/or using my sketch.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thank you for stopping by for a visit and have a great day!
