I made this card with a kit I made up for my last cardmaking class. It features white embossing on watercolour paper and the design emerges as colour is applied! I started with yellow watercolour all over avoiding some parts of the presents as I went along. Next I added blue to the inside of the presents and discovered that the bottom edge of the design is not closed so the colour ran into the yellow a bit. Next, I added just a wee bit of red to the heart bows on the top of the presents. A fun design using a stamp I have had for ages!! I coloured the greeting with the same colours as the main element though I watered them down some so as to not compete with the front. I wrapped the fiber all the way around and then incorporated my label greeting in on my last wrap before tying it off with a double knot. The greeting was stamped with black ink (SU). I glued this large element to a black card front. Love the bright colours!!
