Autumn Colors AAA Cards #24

Game 24 Autumn Colors

You just can't resist the colors of Autumn! Fall puts on a majestic show of warm, bright and dazzling colors.  I die cut the leaves with impression obesession fall leaves die #DIE030-S and painted them with Twinkling H2Os. The woodgrain background label was colored with gelatos and I blended the colors by rubbing with fingers over the embossed background. Please see Tiffany's video.

I used Lil' inker "Frames & Flowers set #59926173 for the woodgrain label. The sentiment is WPlus9

Painted Poinsettias AAA Cards #23

Game 23 Play with Watercolors


We're having more fun with watercoloring at AAA Cards! I've switched it up from usual Distress inks and an aqua brush. This week I'm  using Twinkling H2Os in spiced pumpkin and olive vine and a paint brush. (Also some old LuminArte in Sunflower)
I first stamped the image in Distress Ink crushed olive onto watercolor paper. I then added a little water to the twinkling H2O containers and painted inside the lines with an actual water brush! So easy! Gold micro beads were added to the poinsettias centers and splatters from the brush in each color.
