Celebrate Hipster Dad

Hello & Welcome!

Fathers Day is just a couple days away and its always extra special because my dad's birthday is around the same weekend. It would be easy to make one card for both but I just can't so he gets 2 handmade cards. This year both cards are made with the Hipster stamp set from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous.

First up - A Hipster Fathers Day Card

Lots of Distress Oxides used with stamping, blending and watercolour techniques.

Next up - A Hipster Birthday Card

My Hipster Monkey doesn't look thrilled with his birthday hat - sort of how my dad would look too!

This year my Dad is turning 70 so we will have a "Legit Party".

More Color Burst Cards

I'm back with another set of cards made using Ken Oliver's Color Burst Powders.

I started by stamping my sentiments on to 140lb watercolor paper and embossing with black embossing powders. I decided to do watercolour wash over the embossed sentiments.

To make my watercolours, I squeezed just a tiny amount of Color Burst Powder on to my palette and used my waterbrush to add water.

I picked up the colour with my brush and washed it across my card. I kept working the paint until I got the effect I got. 

I added some splatters of paint to the cards too.

To finish off my cards, I embossed the edges with black embossing powder and added a few sequins.
