Delicate Whispers Embossed Garland Happiness & Love Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the Delicate Whispers stamp set and Perennial Postage dies. The sweet, delicate designs in this stamp set create a lovely garland flowing across this card.  The imagery really pops when embossed in white and set against a background of Secret Sea.  Adding a single color in little pops scattered throughout bring warmth to the card, and no matter what the occasion, wishing someone happiness and love is never wrong.


Techniques include heat embossing and coloring with Watercolor Pencils.

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Fine hand drawn images are perfect for coloring in with Watercolor Pencils.  Stampin' Up! has two assortments of watercolor pencils, and they glide on smoothly and evenly.  They can be used with  Water Painters,  Blender Pens, or alone as I've done on this card.  

It's a great way to add a very soft, pastel look to your projects.
