I realized I have some projects that I’ve been working on that I haven’t posted yet. A couple weeks back I did another challenge for “If you Give a Crafter a Cookie” and then things got switched around and this got lost in the shuffle. The cookie that week were these cute little dogs. I was so excited because we have the most adorable stamp set featuring a puppy and a parrot. The stamp set is called Bella & Friends.
When I saw this stamp set, I thought it lent itself perfectly to the narrow note cards that were introduced in the 2018 Occasions catalog (they are now in the 2018 Annual catalog as well!) The images fit so perfectly on these miniature cards. I decided to do a set of 3.
I stamped them in black ink and then colored them in with my watercolor pencils. At first I was a little nervous to use them because I am NOT a watercolor person. However, they were so EASY!! You just outline the image you want to color and then you use your blender pen to pull the color away from the side. It was so fun and relaxing.I then finished the cards off with some Washi tape and a layer of colored card stock behind and they were done!
Happy Stamping!
