The February Happy Watercolor Kit features supplies to make one of these pretty cards thank you cards! I love the use of the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper and Sequin Trim accents on this project. Let's take a closer look!
Background Basics—I layered a 3-3/4" x 2" piece of the chevron Watercolor Wonder DSP at the bottom of 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Wild Wasabi card stock. Then, I adhered a 3-3/4" x 3" piece of the soft polka dot Watercolor Wonder DSP on the top of that layer.
Gold Accents—At the seam of the papers, I laid down some Watercolor Wonder Washi Tape and carefully trimmed it flush to the edges. The Sequin Trim is adhered with a skinny line of Sticky Strip. The Sticky Strip is a little too wide, so I cut down the middle of it to make it about 1/8" wide before adhering to the card. Or, you can also adhere the trim with Multipurpose Glue. TIP: Use some Glue Dots on the sequins at the ends of they start falling off of the thread.
The background layer is adhered to a Daffodil Delight card base.
Flower Focal Point—I stamped the Happy Watercolor flower in StazOn Black onto a 2-1/4" x 3-3/4" piece of Whisper White first, then added the two splotches in Crisp Cantaloupe and So Saffron over the top. The flower stem is colored with Wild Wasabi ink and a Blender Pen.
Colored Bloom Cut-Out—Rather than coloring the bloom, I cheated! I stamped on one of the papers from the Watercolor Wonder DSP package, then cut out the flower and popped it up with Dimensionals. I love this little trick that I learned from Deb Fearns, an Australian demonstrator!
Gold Sequin Bubbles—Those single little Gold Sequins are fun accents that look like golden bubbles! I attached them with Glue Dots.
Sentiment—The words, also from the Happy Watercolor set, are stamped in Black StazOn and die-cut with the Bitty Banners Framelits.
