Brightly Coloured Baubles

I posted a card using the amazing Beautiful Bauble stamp set back in October and decided to re-make it as a brightly coloured bauble card using non-traditional summery colours colours.

Re making the Beautiful Bauble card

I started with a panel of Watercolor Paper 4½” by 3”. I rubbed the Embossing Buddy over the paper to get rid of oils and static before stamping the large bauble randomly across the panel with Versamark ink. I then covered the panel in White Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool.

I chose to colour my baubles using Mango Melody and Melon Mango which were the colours used by Alisa Tilsner in the original blog post I saw. I added a couple of drops of each of the re-inkers to a clear block. I then added water to one bauble using an Aquapainter, picked up some of the re-inker with the Aquapainter and added it to the bauble. I love the way the ink moves in the water. I coloured each bauble one at a time.

When all the baubles were coloured in I left the panel to dry before adding it with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to a layer of Melon Mambo cardstock measuring 4⅝” by 3⅛”. I took a Thick Whisper White card base and added a strip of Mango Melody cardstock measuring 4⅛” by 2” to the front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The embossed panel was added on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark onto a strip of Melon Mambo cardstock and covered it with White Embossing Powder. I heat set it using my Heat tool before flagging the ends and adding it to the front of the card with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I really love this colour combo, the card looks gorgeous.
