We made this card at my September Club Classes featuring heat embossing. I love the look achieved when an image is embossed in white and then Watercolor Pencils are used to color directly onto the stamped image. The center of the sunflower was made by cutting small strips of Waffle Paper and crumpling them and then sticking them to a circle cut out of Sticky Sheets. Enjoy!
Uses Sunflower background stamp and It's Your Day Set plus Night of Navy Card Stock, Garden Green Card Stock, Night of Navy Classic Stampin' Pad, Whisper White Craft Stampin' Pad, Waffle Paper Assortment 1, Blue 3/8" Denim Jean Ribbon, White Stampin' Emboss Powder, Powder Pals, Heat Tool, Watercolor Pencils, SNAIL Adhesive, Sticky Strip, Craft Scissors, Scallop Oval Punch, 1-3/4" Circle Punch, Large Oval Punch, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine, Multipurpose Platform, Standard Cutting Pads, Sticky Sheets, and Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
Important note - do NOT try to punch Sticky Sheets with a punch. You'll just gum up your punch! Instead, use the punch to punch a scrap of card stock. Then, trace the punched out image onto the back side of the Sticky Sheets and cut it out with scissors.
Love this idea! I have justified my need for watercolor pencils!! I have always wanted to stamp directly on colored cardstock and add color. Now I know how. Thanks for sharing!! Praying all is well, :)

No nasty side effects or anything!
Being tired is ok.
