A gorgeous water colour Hydrangea bloom featuring the smooched ink technique and the Hydrangea Haven stamp set and Hydrangea Dies by Stampin' Up!

Smooched Hydrangea

A sweet card featuring a gorgeous smooched Hydrangea made with the Hydrangea Haven stamp set and Hydrangea Dies and some watercolour ink smooching. Love a bit of smooching.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the smooched Hydrangea card, you will need:

Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – Rounded lower right corner
Flirty Flamingo – 5¾” by 3¼” – Rounded lower right corner
Fluid 100 – 5” by 5½” – Cut down to 5” by 3” after inking – Rounded lower right corner -the remnant used to die cut the individual blooms
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” Rounded lower right corner
Scrap Fluid 100 & Soft Sea Foam

I began by taking my large F Block and pressing the Blushing Bride ink pad onto it. I then dabbed Highland Heather ink in random spots on the block. I then used a Spritzer to spray the inked bloc with water. I laid the panel of Fluid 100 water color paper on top of the wet ink and allowed it to soak into the paper. This was then set aside to dry.

I mounted the Hydrangea image onto my Stampartus plate inked it up with Versamark ink, then inked it again with Memento Tuxedo Black ink before stamping it down onto scrap Fluid 100 paper. I used the stamparatus to do this as it can be difficult to get a good, clear stamped image on textured water colour paper and doing it this way would allow me to re-stamp if I needed too. I then covered the stamped image with Clear Embossing Powder and Heat set it using my Heat Tool. This image was then die cut using the Hydrangea Dies. I cut off the bloom using scissors.

I repeated the same process to stamp the image on the dried water coloured panel. The die cut stalk and leaves were then glued to the panel over top of the stamped image.

I die cut the strip of flower blossoms a number of times from the left-over inked water coloured card, used a bone folder to curl the petals. The flowers were then added to the head of the hydrangea with Mini Glue Dots.

The decorated panel was added to the layer of Flirty Flamingo with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I then wrapped some of the lovely Blushing Bride Snail Mail Twine around the panel and tied a bow. The panel was then added to the Soft Sea Foam card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Old Olive ink, die cut using the sweet tag from the Hydrangea dies. The tag was added to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot. I used the Flirty Flamingo Blends Markers to colour some Basic Pearls and added them to the centre of each small petal cluster to complete the card.

Such a soft and pretty card, I hope you like it.
