Daisy Watercoloring

Hi friends – welcome back to another mini Hero Arts card featuring this adorable Daisy Style flower; I just love it!

This month, we encourage you to use vellum on your card…

And yes, in case you were wondering? My first card is what we call a #vellumfail. OOPS! So what’s a crafty girl to do? Make another card and use vellum as the base. 😀 Ah…better!!

On the first card, I embossed the image 3 times on watercolor paper with Hero Arts white embossing powder and colored the images with Zig Clean Clear Brushes – allowing the colors to dry in between really does allow you to layer the colors and get some gorgeous BRIGHT color combos. I added a turquoise blue outline fading it out softly. Once everything was dry, I used my fingernail and the brush of the Zig markers to make super tiny flecks over the main panel. I added some clear wink of stella, washi tape and a sentiment from Hero Arts . A few sequins finish it off.

The second card is made basically the exact same way – I just added some black and white splatters as well as some white enamel accents, layered it on to a fun stripped vellum for the base. I added another Hero Arts flower, Zinnia Bloom as well as leaves from the Color Layering For you Flower stamp set.
