I Love This Card Watts & Watts

Hi stampers!  Do you ever make a card and amaze even yourself?  I've really been struggling with my creativity and will to stamp (lol) so to speak!  I sat down Saturday to stamp and didn't get much accomplished so I took a break and cleaned up my stampin' space which needed to be done badly!  And then I just played around with some things for a while.  I didn't get anything actually made but I did make the focal point on this card with some Brusho.


The Watts of Occasions Stamp Set is in the annual catalog and surprise, I'd kind of forgotten about it.  But how perfect is it for Valentine's Day????  I embossed it in clear powder and then used the red and yellow brushos.  I did the red first and let it dry a while and then added the yellow.  The red was initially more defined in the heart but I had to add more water for the yellow so it blended and spread more.  At first I was a little miffed but I still think it looks really cool.  That's the fun of Brusho...it's like Forrest Gump and his box of chocolate...you never know what you're gonna get :-)

I layered that on some of the Myths & Magic Glimmer Paper, which isn't showing up well in the photo.  And my background was applied with a sponge in Craft Ink and I embossed it in clear powder as well.  It's very subtle and kind of cool looking, I think.

Hopefully my "clean" space will inspire more creativity and experiments....and as a side note, one of Ian's favorite words right now is experiment :-)  I have no idea where he got it from but he talks about let's do an experiment all the time and it's the cutest thing :-)

Happy stamping! Product List
