Haute Couture

CHF54HauteCouture-wm

Hi everyone,

It’s time for another CHF challenge over on the Cornish Heritage Farms Blog . This week the challenge is hosted by Ann Marie!

This week Ann Marie  has challenged us to Use Watering Coloring when you create your card or project.

I used to types of water coloring techniques to create my card. First off I masked the edges of my water color card for my background. I then stamped the Cornish Heritage Farms French Script using versamark ink, poured clear embossing powder over the top and heat embossed. I then used my Faber Castell Gelatos to water color over the top of the script background. Let this dry and then placed my card under a piece of photo copy paper and ironed over the heat embossing to remove the embossing.

I then stamped the Haute Couture stamp set onto water color card and water colored the image again with Gelatos.
