White Christmas Cards - October Card Club Projects - Meg Holland, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Hi Stampers! I have four cards to share with you today from my October Card Club workshops featuring the White Christmas Stamp Set in the Holiday Catalog. My Card Club members were given a choice of four designs to choose from for their first project. I had fun watching them make a tough decision!!! I’m not sure which one was the most popular one:)

Watercolor Technique on a Shimmery White Card Stock

I love this watercolor technique to color the background using an Aqua Painter! It adds an artistic impression on a beautiful Shimmery White Card Stock. All you need for this technique is an Aqua Painter, Shimmery White Card Stock and a Classic Stampin’ Ink Refill of your choice. First you need to stamp the tree image on a piece of Shimmery White Card Stock in StazOn Black ink and let it dry. Apply a drop of Ink Refill in a plastic ink palette and watercolor the background using your Aqua Painter. You can adjust the shade of your color by adding more water from your Aqua Painter or add more ink to your palette.
