Hi, Friends!

I’m so excited to be creating with the Essentials by Ellen November Release! I’ve watercolored the new In the Weeds stamp set using Daniel Smith watercolors today, so let’s dive right in!

The stamp is meant to be a border die and I really wanted to do something different so I stamped it with a light ink to do some no-line watercoloring before deciding what to do with the painted panel. I used several Daniel Smith watercolors and took my time coloring all the small images.

When I was done painting, I splattered the panel with white and then black ink. After it was dry, I trimmed the panel down to mat my card panel. I used some thin baker’s twine to wrap around the watercolored panel before adhering it over the card panel with foam adhesive to give it some dimension.

To finish my card, I stamped my sentiment using a dark brown ink, added some white gel highlights to give the sentiment some interest, then added some snowball droplets as a final touch.

Hope you enjoyed this project! Thanks for joining me today!
