Watercolour Wash Vintage Styled Card using In This World Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! UK

Now, if you have been following my blog over the past 5 years, you will know that I am a Vintage Girl at heart! I have to fight my natural inclination to make everything vintage styled. So I have learnt, that people like to see all kinds of cards & 3D projects.

But for today, I am feeding my love of the vintage Style he he

The In This World Stamp Set is how I have achieved this.

This is one of the New Stamp Sets to the Stampin' Up! Catalogue

So if you have fallen in love at first sight of this stamp set, like me, you will have to have it.

That is easy to to, just click the link below this photo, and you will be transported to my on-line Demonstrator Store, where you can purchase this little lovely ...

Stampin' Up! also brought out a new vintage lace, so of course I just HAD to have that too!

The card Base was made using Watermelon Wonder Cardstock,.

The main panel is Watercolour Paper which I created a 3 colour watercolour wash background. This was stamped one dry, and an extra Butterfly was stamped and Fussy Cut out., some coils of Gold thread added and mounted onto the card front with Stampin Dimensionals to Pop it up.

Tutorial

Trim a piece of Watermelon Wonder Cardstock to 30 x 10.5 cms; score at 14.9 cms; fold & Burnish
Trim a piece of Watercolour Paper to 14.4 x 10.1 cms; apply some drops of water onto the paper and spread over the surface of the cardstock, without going right to the edge
Transfer some ink from the ink pads to the "well" by squishing the ink pad ... do this for the Mint Macaron; Watermelon Wonder& Tip Top Taupe ink pads
Starting at the top of the panel, apply Mint Macaron ink by picking up ink from the WELL and adding it to the dampened watercolour paper; repeat with the Watermelon Wonder Ink Pad, and finally, the Tip Top Taupe Ink Pad. Allow the panel to dry completely
Using Archival Black Ink Pad, stamp the left hand side of the panel with the long stamp, and then stamp the butterfly stamp 3 times, changing the angle you stamp at each time., Then stamp the sentiment of choice from the stamp set
stamp a further butterfly onto a scrap of Watercolour Paper using Archival Black Ink Pad & fussy cut out using Paper Snips
Coil some sloops of Gold Thread around two fingers; apply Stampin Dimensionals to the back of the Butterfly and partially attach the thread to one of the Dimensionals, & add to the card front
Wrap around some Very Vanilla Lace Trim and tie a small bow
Mat onto the Card base using Tombow Liquid Glue (you need this as the watercolour paper warps a little).
