Thinking of You – Rachel Vass Designs

Hi everyone – it is release day over at Rachel Vass Designs. Rachel’s newest digital stamp set is called – Mock Orange Blossom. This set is beautiful, you can check it out here.

I started by working with my image within word. It is fun to resize the image, this allows you to create many different types of cards using 1 stamp set. For my card I used 2 branches. I printed my images on Canson Mixed Media paper. I used my Tombow markers to color in my image. When working on Canson mixed media I place the color on my glass mat and then I pick up the coloring using a water brush. I have found this to work the best, as well as allow the coloring to dry between the layers. I added serval layers of color and completed the coloring by adding some shading to the nooks and crannies. I also used a white gel pen on the flower stamens to allow those to “pop” out.

When my coloring was complete I used my Brother Scan and Cut to “fussy cut” my branches. I added foam tape to both of my branches, as well as the sentiment and set them aside. I then created a water color background on Canson Water Color card stock. Once my card panel was dry, I adhered this to an A2 sized card, adhered my images, as well as my sentiment. I added a few sequins for added shine at the end.

I hope you enjoyed this card! If you haven’t tried digital stamps yet, I would encourage you to try them! Visit Rachel Vass Designs to see this new release plus many other beautiful sets!
