Hello, crafty friends! Last month I was up on the Altenew blog with a set of watercolor cards that I made using a couple of techniques: colored embossing and loose watercoloring.
I used the multi layered stamps from Beautiful Day and Peony Bouquet in a different way. Rather than stamping the images in layers with different colors, I stamped them as a single image to create a unique look.
I made a video tutorial to show you how to make this watercolor card from start to finish. You can watch it below or on my YouTube channel. Hope you find it helpful.
How to Make a Card using Colored Embossing and Loose Watercoloring
- Pull out the stamps from Beautiful Day and Peony Bouquet.
- Ink up the stamps with Versamark watermark ink first and Midnight Violet ink after.
- Stamp the floral images on some watercolor paper from Arches.
- Heat emboss the images with clear embossing powder.
- Watercolor the images with Mijello Misson Gold 36 watercolor set.
- Stamp the sentiment from the Oriental Orchid stamp set with black ink.
- Mount the watercolor panel on a A2 size top folding card using foam tape.
Colored Embossing with Dye Inks
- It’s a great way to get more out of your dye inks.
- It’s a useful technique when you don’t own a bunch of embossing powers with every color.
- You can create the same look of colored embossing by stamping with your dye ink/watermark ink together and heat embossing with clear embossing powder.
- Pigment ink works better as you don’t need to ink up with watermark ink when heat embossing.
If you want to learn more about the colored embossing technique, please check out this blog post from Jennifer McGuire Ink : Faux Colored Embossing.
Actually this is the card I made first. However my husband didn’t like the way I added the ink splatters and clear sequins on my card. So I had to start it over. That is just me. I’m not satisfied with my card until my husband loves it. Hehe…
That’s all I have for today! I hope you enjoyed seeing my cards and got some inspiration to make your own. Thanks so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!

Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with SEO? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good results. If you know of any please share. Thanks!|

Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa? My site goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Great blog by the way!|

Undeniably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the net the simplest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people think about worries that they just don’t know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal.
Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog.
Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not
very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick.
I’m thinking about making my own but I’m not sure
where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions?
With thanks
