SSS June Card Kit Watercolored Embossing & GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone!

I'm back to share another card featuring the beautiful Simon Says Stamp June Card Kit.


For today's card I actually took the Suzy's Watercolor Print (plain watercolor paper would have worked too!) and embossed the back of it with the Tim Holtz Botanical 3D Embossing Folder. I then watercolored the raised areas with the Daniel Smith Watercolors that came in the Card Kit. Once dry, I adhered the painted piece to a notecard and added strips of the Modascrap Fly & Scrap 6x6 papers and the Tonic Gold Pearl Mirror Cardstock. I white heat embossed a sentiment from Simon's Beautiful Flowers Stamp Set on Simon's new Peacock Teal Cardstock. Finally, I finished the card off with Tonic Gold Pearl Mirror Cardstock hearts die cut with Simon's Clipping Heart Die.
