Alright, let’s get on to the video for today’s projects!

In the video, I show you how to stamp with liquid watercolors using the Foliage Background stamp. I am sharing a fall version similar to a card I created for the August release and then changed up a few colors and details for a holiday version. I share a few tips and tricks in the video to help you be successful with this technique!

Stamping with liquid watercolor results in a beautiful effect. It’s obviously not something you would choose for any stamp design, but it’s perfect to do with a rustic image like this one.

Here’s a closer look at both versions of the project:

For the fall version, I stamped the wreath with Peapod, Lime Zest, Candy Corn, and Pineapple liquid watercolors. I created custom sentiments for each of the cards using the Handlettered Alpha clear stamp set. I stamped the larger words with the script letters and completed the sentiment using the small uppercase letters that are included in the set.

I finished the card off with some burlap twine tied around the card in a bow and a few sequins scattered around the wreath design.

For the holiday version of this card, I stamped the wreath with Peapod, Lime Zest, and Chocolate Truffle liquid watercolors. I added berries to the wreath by applying Cherry Pop ink through the berry stencil from the Modern Holly Layered Stencil collection. The small circle from the Masking Stencil – Circle set was perfect to mask the center of the wreath to leave room for my custom sentiment.

This card is finished off the in the same way at the fall version with some burlap twine and sequins.

Check out the list below for the supplies that I used on these projects:
