Pinkfresh Studio Liquid Watercolor Blog Hop + GIVEAWAY


Hello and welcome to Pinkfresh Studio Liquid Watercolour Release!
I was SO excited when I received the watercolours that I started experimenting right away!
The colours are gorgeous and highly pigmented. I made a few watercoloured panels and a couple of cards to share with you guys but my little nephew spilled his juice on my worktable and well everything is orange now.
I am happy I was able to save this one by changing it's card base. 

Pinkfresh Studio Floral Background and Modern Mandala Die | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

On my card, I am using the Floral Background Stamp Set.
What I have done is, I stamped the image onto watercolor paper and coloured it with the new Pinkfresh watercolours. The colours I used are Bubble Gum, Candy Apple, Sunshine, Clementine, Lavender, Key Lime and Emerald City.
After it was dry, I fussy cut the florals out.

Next I worked on the card front. I used Aquamarine watercolour for my background. First, I applied water to the entire panel and then diluted the Aquamarine watercolour before applying it onto the card front. Like I said, the watercolours are gorgeous pigmented, if I had used the pigmented directly, the background wouldn't have been this subtle.
After the background was dry, I added fine black paint splatters. Then popped up the gorgeous Modern Mandala Die, on which I started to arrange the fussy cut flowers from the Floral Background Stamp Set.
In the end I heat embossed a sentiment on black cardstock, added silver glitter tape to one edge and popped it up on the card front with foam tape.
Now onto the awesome stuff!

GIVEAWAYS:
The Pinkfresh Studio blog will be giving away (1) set of Liquid Watercolors on each of the the following: Blog, Instagram & Facebook.
I will be giving away a $25 giftcard to one of you as well!

Here is the hop list, I hope it works!

Lucy E. said...

So beautiful!
I’d say that you made a great
save from the spill! I think we crafters
are just as talented as the next when
we can creatively save a project from
ink smudges, cutting too much or too
little, mis-spellings, spills, etc. We probably
would never have noticed anything. 😉

Amy C. said...

Gorgeous floral card! These new liquid watercolors look like a lot of fun to play with.

Oh no! At least it was your nephew who spilled and not you. I've ruined a number greater than 1 card by being a klutz. I'm glad you were able to salvage some of your work; this card looks lovely. It's really good to see that you can get the paler colors from the really vibrant bottles. Thanks for sharing with us!

great save so it wasn't all a waste.
