Have you had a play with Stampin' Up! new pigment sprinkles yet in the Annual Catalogue? They are watercolour pigment crystals and when mixed with water make fun and amazing backgrounds. No one background is ever going to look the same! In July's technique's class, we had an amazing variety of different backgrounds created.
You can find the pigment sprinkles on page 179 of the Annual Catalogue, and they cost $40 and you get 6 fabulous colours to play with. I used 3 of the pigment sprinkles colours to create the background on this card (daffodil delight, mango melody and melon mambo) and I love the sunset look it has. The girl on the swing from silhouette scenes swinging on the tree swing makes me long for daylight savings and kids playing in the backyard after dinner.
Maybe I am wishing for that as it is cold and winter weather here in Melbourne, Victoria right now!
I heat embossed the silhouette image but due to the texture of the watercolour paper it did take a couple of goes but by using the Stampartus, that made it simple to line up the image easily.
