Watercolor Wonder Crayons...On cards

I was continueing my efforts to catch up on my sketches and Birthday and Anniversary cards and ended up using my Watercolor Wonder Crayons on both..I just love them.



The first card I did was to finish up the Anniversary Cards I needed for the month I wanted to use one of my "Love" border Embossing Strips...I was also trying to use the sketch SC186, which restricted the card a bit and made it more simple because the Pirouette Pink. "With love" sentiment was longer than I expected... I embossed the strip first and then cut the end and put it on the right side of the card to fit the sketch...This made the image panel harder to fit. I would have loved to put a mat around it, but had to rely on the Swiss Dot embossing folder to make it stand out...I used another EF to add texture to the Moss colored cardstock... I felt adding the Heart from "merci" made it look more like an anniversary card. I guess it would work as a Valentine also!
The second card is for my Nephew...I used "Cowboy Kid" to stamp the images ..the Cactus is mounted on dimensionals...I used "Argyle" EF to add texture to Riding Hood Red...boy was it pretty I need to do this again but allow more of it to show. I matted the image with Basic Grey and Baja Blue.. the basic Gray was Embossed withthe Dotted "Frills" border strip twice and then a 3/4" red satin Ribbon to contrast the Blue and gray..I like how it turned out...

Until Later ... Happy Stamping!
