I stamped and heat embossed the Clarity Chinese Lanterns stamp with Versamark ink and gold embossing powder onto A6 watercolour card and again onto a snippet of watercolour card. I watercoloured both images and the background of the A6 card and left to dry.
I stamped the Clarity sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink onto a snippet of white card. I coloured the appropriate letters and used Carved Pumpkin Distress ink to colour the snippet. I dry embossed a 148mm square of white card using a Creative Expressions 3D embossing folder. I inked the raised parts with Carved Pumpkin Distress ink then sprayed with water, to soften the inking, and left to dry.
I trimmed the sentiment, the stamped panel and the embossed card. I adhered the embossed card onto a 148mm square card. I mounted the stamped card onto Sizzix Textured glitter card using brads. I attached the stamped panel onto the card. I fussy cut the lanterns and leaves from the watercoloured snippet then adhered with Pinflair Glue Gel. I attached the sentiment onto the card and finished by adding Tonic Nuvo Drops. Back soon x
