Peace Within

My new favorite color combination: Bermuda Bay and Kraft!



Today I have another new stamp set to show you called Peace Within. It's a beautiful set for watercoloring, which I've done here. (You can see the other card I made with this set on my 2stampis2b Facebook Page.) I've used my new Paper Piercer (YES, you can buy just the piercer now for $3.50, item #116631) on the Scallop Edge Punched Kraft card stock center.

TIP: To make background areas disappear when watercoloring (instead of leaving them white, which makes them stand out), watercolor them in Basic Gray like I did around the chair. See the difference between that and around the orchid and butterfly where I forgot to do it? I used Sahara Sand Classic Ink to watercolor the ground.

Don't forgot my giveaway and my special offer for you to go along with the Stampin' Up! Deal of the Week!

You are right, this just rocks! Wonderful job. I want to sit right down in that chair and read a book or something. :)
