Hi folks! Just popping in with a really quick card today.
This Soaring Birthday set is another from the most recent Simon Says Stamp Let's Chill release that I didn't get a chance to work with at release time.
I'm totally smitten with the kite images in the release. I love the way they really capture the feel of flying.
For this card I simply stamped the image on a panel of watercolor paper using Versafine, and then watercolored. I really only used two colors for my card. I started by painting a very light wash of a red/pink color on the kite. Once that was mostly dry, I went back with a smaller more saturated brush and added accents with that same color.
I treated the sky similarly, first adding a very light wet wash of blue, then going back with more saturation. For the sky I did not let the first layer get as dry as for the kite because I wanted a softer differentiation.
The panel was finished off with a sentient from the Soaring Birthday stamp set, and then the entire panel was popped up over my card base.
Super quick and easy!
