How adorable is this?!?!?! This cute card is perfect for Valentine’s Day and it uses a non-Valentine’s Day stamp set – You’re Sublime! It is such an adorable stamp set!!!
I started with a Peek-A-Boo Peach card base! Then I took a piece of Whisper White (4-1/2″ x 3″) and stamped the little submarine from the You’re Sublime Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink. You will need to use a Stazon or Archival Ink since I did watercoloring and you won’t want it to bleed! I prefer Basic Gray because I like the softer look rather than Basic Black. I hadn’t received my Watercolor Pencils order at the time of making this so I used an Aqua Painter and ink. You can see a complete tutorial on watercoloring like this HERE! I used Dapper Denim Ink and Peek-A-Boo Peach Ink. I layered this onto Dapper Denim measuring 5″ x 3-1/2″ and tied some Dapper Denim Ruched Ribbon around it on the bottom. I added this piece to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals!
When we did this card in class, I let the stampers pick any of the images from the You’re Sublime card and here is one of the fabulous creations! Sondra went with the froggy and she used the Watercolor Pencils and Blender Pen to color him in. The ribbon covered up the greeting so we went with a Birthday greeting from the Balloon Adventures Stamp Set! It is sooo adorable! I love when my stampers change up my cards with their own creativity! It gives me great ideas too! 🙂
Stamping is always fun with you do it with others! Sharing creativity, conversations, and laughs is what I love the most about being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator! 🙂
Have a wonderful weekend!!! Happy Stampin’
