Waterfront Card - One Hour Card Class 044 OHCC044


Stamps: Waterfront (Occasions 2018), Glamper Greetings 2017/18).

Cardstock: watercolor paper, Garden Green, Marina Mist.

Ink: Crumb Cake, Garden Green, Sahara Sand, Soft Suede, Marina Mist, Night of Navy, Soft Sky, Crushed Curry, Tranquil Tide.

Tools: aqua painter, dimenstionals, Tombow glue, envelope.


Punches: Word Window.

I followed THIS VIDEO on Pinterest to watercolor the images.  My layout inspiration came from THIS CARD.

Cut watercolor paper 3-1/2” x 4-3/4”.

Stamp a row of mountains in full strength Crumb Cake ink about 2-1/2” from bottom of panel.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry. 


Ink the mountain stamp again with Crumb Cake ink – stamp off then stamp another row of mountains above the first one.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.


Ink the zig zag image and stamp two rows of grass in full strength Garden Green ink – have the first row touching the bottom of the mountains on the right-hand side.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.

Ink the long narrow image in full strength Sahara Sand ink and fill in the areas around the grass and mountains. Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry. 


Add the pebbles in full strength Soft Suede ink across the dirt/grass. 

Stamp water in full strength Marina Mist ink at the bottom of the card. 


Stamp a second water image in full strength Marina Mist ink that touches the bottom of the grass/dirt.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry. 


Ink the water image again in Marina Mist ink, stamp off twice then stamp on the right-hand side of the middle water.  Repeat for the left-hand side.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.


Ink the water image in full strength Soft Sky ink.  Fill in the sky area.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.

Ink the zig zag image in full strength Night of Navy ink.  Stamp on top of the water.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry. 


Add the sun with full strength Crushed Curry ink.  Immediately paint with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.

Ink the trees in full strength Tranquil Tide ink.  Stamp 2 trees on the left side.  Without re-inking, stamp their reflection in the water.  Immediately paint the top trees only with the aqua painter brush.  Let dry.  Repeat with all three trees on the right-hand side. 


Mount on to a 3-3/4” x 5” Garden Green panel – I trimmed it a little closer to the water colored panel then adhered to Marina Mist card.

Stamp Happy Birthday from the Glamper Greetings stamp set with Night of Navy ink on to Marina Mist cardstock.  Punch with the Word Window punch and apply dimenstionals.


Add a phrase and a little scenery to the inside of the card.



Stamp a matching envelope.

Butterfly Punch Pansy - One Hour Card Class 013 OHCC013


This is one of those ‘old’ techniques that never gets old!  If you look closely, you can see they are made from to Butterfly punches that are layered with an brad holding them together in the center. 

Punch out two butterflies from Shimmer White cardstock – you need two for each flower.  Spritz them with water, allowing the water to pool.  Load Aqua Painter with Crushed Curry ink from a re-inker and touch the brush to the middle of the butterflies.   The ink will spread, but you might have to "help" it along. 

Touch the outside edges with Elegant Eggplant ink from a re-inker. 

Let dry.  Use Eggplant Envy Marker to draw lines to the center of the butterflies.  Curl wings with a bone folder. 

Adhere one butterfly crosswise over the other with a gold brad. 

We lined an envelope for this card following THIS tutorial. 

Cardstock: SU! Shimmer, Crushed Curry, Elegant Eggplant, Garden Green, White.

Stamp Sets: Butterfly Basics, Dots for Days, a signature stamp or an address label.

Ink: Garden Green, Crushed Curry re-inker, Pale Plum re-inker, Elegant Eggplant marker,

Accessories: Snail Adhesive, Sponge, Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, envelope, Stampin’ Trimmer, scissors, bone folder, Fancy Fan Embossing Folder, Beautiful Wings embosslit, circle Coluzzle, painter’s palette, spritz bottle, aqua painter, Paper Piercer, Fine Tip glue pen, Sizzlits Little Leaves, 

Punch: Martha Stewarts border, Martha Stewarts medium branch, Butterfly.
