How to Make an Easy Watercolor Sympathy Card Video
We shared an easy to make sympathy card with a watercolor sunset on it earlier this week. I thought it would be a good video so I got Ann to clean off my stamp desk and set up the camera.
Here’s the card that we featured in this post. (You’ll find the supply list there.)
Flowers and Free Stamps, Oh My!
Have you checked out these flowers from the Botanical Gardens stamp set and matching framelits yet? this is a bundle to be reckoned with!
I don’t know why we waited so long to use it!
Would You Like to Learn to Watercolor?
It seems that my little watercolor card that I did in this post was pretty popular.
We liked it so much that we did it again. We used more water so we kicked it up a notch and used the Stampin’ Up! Shimmery White Card Stock. I know you can’t see it much on your screen, but that shimmer is there!
Doodles Loves Me!
I have the best gal pal named Doodles. She is such a sweetie! And talented too!
Besides being a real cutie, she’s talented too! She designs cards with her mom and is also an agility champion.
AND SHE’S SWEET ON ME!
Look what she sent me!
You Can Have This Card in Your Mailbox!
Isn’t it great to get a card in your mailbox? You love making them, but it’s so nice to get one too.
And here’s your chance to get this beautiful card that my gal pal Doodles and I designed in your mailbox next week!
WARNING! Water Coloring Happening Here
Ann does not color a lot. It’s not that she doesn’t like it. She finds it relaxing.
And habit forming.
It must have something to do with everyone getting on this coloring book thing. We don’t need coloring books here at Central Bark! We’ve got stamps, ink and paper!
She started with …
A Quick & Easy Watercolor Card
You might think that quick and easy don’t go with a watercolor project, but I beg to differ. Once Ann followed my directions, she found that she could make this card in about 10 minutes.
And it’s a standard size card!
Who Says You Can’t Put Ribbon on a Masculine Valentine?
That’s right! Who says you can’t put ribbon on a masculine Valentine card?
We actually tied it in a way that we don’t normally do. We usually like to hide the ribbon from the inside of the card, but it was too late by the time we decided to use it.
Blow Up Your Mojo Balloon
Are you stuck in a snow drift? Is it raining where you are? Do you need something bright and cheery to perk you up? Do you need to blow up your mojo balloon?
Well, here’s my idea to help brighten your day. It’s 5-1/2″ square so the mere envelope in your loved ones’ mailbox should spark excitement.
Yoga Made Her Do It!
Do you get enough exercise? Ann’s been trying to do better with that.
Since November, she’s been walking 3 miles many mornings and last week she even tried yoga!
She’d done yoga before with,,,
It’s All About the Dots
Have you ever sat down to make a card and ended up making a different one?
That’s what happened to us last night. We made a totally different card than was in my head, but everythng changed when we added the dots.
I don’t know what we were waiting for! We’ve had the Botanicals for You stamp set that we got free with…
My Blue Valentine Card
If you’ve been reading my barks at all, you know that my favorite huMAN loves blue! We can make ANY card BLUE and he’d be fine with that.
So why can’t a Valentine be blue?
It can! You can make it any color if you make it yourself! And how much more meaningful is that!?!
You are a Beautiful Blessing
Wouldn’t it be nice to get a card that said that you were a beautiful blessing?
I’m thinking that you should get one every day! Don’t you agree?
We did something we hadn’t done in a long time: I had Ann color with Aqua Painters and ink refills.
But this isn’t your every day water coloring because it’s more of a stained glass drawing than a realistic rose.
I Heard a Rumor
Have you heard rumors about how cool the new Stampin’ Up! Wink of Stella Glitter Brushes are?
Well, I’ve heard another one, but I’ll bark about that after I show you the cool card we made using the Gold one that’s featured in the Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog.
How About a Valentine Card?
Have you started on your Valentine’s yet?
By now, you must know that this dog is always working on something. This weekend, it’s the football playoffs, but while we’re doing that, we’re cleaning our stamp room and working on upcoming video projects.
I love this Valentine that we did with…
