Now let’s get into some details for how I put this card together!
A good week or so before I even got ready to make this card, I had some fun with the Water Gems Sparkling Watercolors! I took Watercolor Cardstock, spritzed it with water, and then began flicking various watercolors on top to see how they would mix. One of the combinations I used created a warm sunset sort of vibe: Sunny, Citrine, Flamingo & Eggplant. I was so happy that, after I planned this card out, I had this panel already pre-made because it worked so well with my cards colors! I used the Concave Rectangles set to die cut out the panel and set it aside for later.
When I began actively planning this card, the very first thing that I did was color up my image from Sprinkles of Love. I used the coordinating dies to cut the image out and saved it for later.
I die cut (2) Big Hello Die Cuts from white cardstock from my stash. Taking one of the dies, I smushed it with the Embossing Watermark Ink pad, poured Princess Pink Embossing Powder over top and then set it with a heat cut. I adhered the embossed die cut on top of the white die cut, offsetting the die cuts slightly so there was a little white bit peeking out on the left-side of the Princess Pink Embossed Die Cut. I die cut the Big Hello outline die from vellum, and adhered my Princess Pink die cut on top with EZ Squeeze Craft Glue and set it aside.
I wanted to use the cloud images from Sprinkles with Joy, so I stamped the clouds onto Construction Cardstock with Embossing Watermark Ink and then heat embossed with Frosting Embossing Powder. I die cut my clouds out with coordinating dies and set them aside.
The last bit I had to prep was taking the Wonky Pink & White Plaid pattern from the Warm Basics Paper Pack and die cutting it with the largest die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies Set 1. I adhered this directly to an A2-sized card base.
I adhered my Concave Rectangle Die onto my Wonky Plaid layer. I then used a combination of foam tape and EZ Squeeze Craft Glue to adhere the rest of my elements to my card. I finished off my card by adhering a few Pretty Posies Glitter Enamel Dots and my card was complete!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope this card leaves you ready to make some sweet summer creations with the new Pink & Main Release!
Happy Crafting!
