Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge Sept '21

  Hello there Crafty Friends! It's time for a new challenge at Happy Little Stampers Watercolour. 

The theme is always 'Anything Goes', so you can get out your watercolour paints, inks or your preferred medium and make whatever you like.

I inked up a new acquisition and had lots of fun colouring it.

I stamped the image on good quality watercolour paper (Baohong Cold Pressed) and coloured with Karin Markers and blended on the page with water. 

Stamp: Penny Black 

Die: Lawnfawn 'Celebrate'; MFT Rectangle die

You can see more inspiration from the design team over at our HLS Challenge Blog and we hope you'll join us with your watercolour creations.

I'm sharing my card at the following challenges:-

HLS Christmas Challenge (Feb21)

 Hi there! It's time to begin another Happy Little Stampers Christmas Card Challenge. 

I pulled out an old stamp set to make this card and included berries in 3 different colours. 

I used various inks and Zig Markers to stamp the foliage and sentiment. I then die-cut the leaves and berries and fussy cut the banner sentiment.

The background paper has an organic speckled look. I think it's called Enviroment (Birch).

Stamps: Papertrey Ink Spruce & Sprigs; Avery Elle Noel
