TOOLS
Gather your supplies
Trim your watercolor paper the size of a card. Unfolded it measures 8.5" by 5.5". Using a bone folder fold in half and crisp those edges
Use Versamark ink on your stamp
Pour embossing powder over your watermark and melt with a heat gun
Using a Versamark pen draw a string and bow. To turn your mandala into a Christmas ornament!
Finished bow
This is my palette
I'm in love with this beautiful olive green!
When I made the poinsettia Christmas card I loved the mosaic effect the embossed work gave the piece And it's the reason I wanted to work it again! This is fuchsia
Using the merlot to give contrast and define the tiny lines in between the petals. I think it gives a lot of depth and works well a monochrome effect
The new planner stamp by Julie Nutting has a curved sentiment that works well with the curve of my bow. I decided to add that tiny word and draw a tiny tag with the embossing pen
See my nutcracker? Perfect color inspiration!!!
Now you have s new use for that gorgeous stamp!!!!
