Stamping On Vellum & How to HIDE THE GLUE!

Let's CASE it, Let's MAKE it! Series Ep. 8
Happy Monday! Welcome back to my Monday - Master Your Card Making Skills Series! 
If this is your first time visiting my blog, I'm so happy you are here. I hope you find something to inspire you and take your mind of otherwise not so inspiring events happening in our world today. 

Today's card is a CASE (Copy & Share Everything) out of the 2018 - 2019 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalog. Page 161. 
For today's card, I will show you how to recreate a card even if you don't have the same stamp set. I will also be stamping on vellum and showing you how to hide the glue!
Here is a Step-by-Step Video Tutorial

Question: Do you have the Colorful Seasons Stamp Set?
Let me know in the comments below if you own this retired stamp set. I sure wish I did. But the Beautiful Bouquet did a great job in recreating this card.

White Gouache Blossoms - Monochromatic Card

I think my favorite way to color is watercolors, I seem to gravitate towards them most often lately. I won't profess to be good at it, but it's my new thing! For this card, I pulled out my new Royal and Langnickel Gouache Watercolor Tubes, swatched them, and gave them a home in a new pallet. 
I nabbed these babies off the Amazon Warehouse Deals (Canada) and Oh boy!, did I get them at a screaming deal! I've been dying to try them out. Now, one would think, that for my first time playing with my new gouache paints I would go to town, but no, I only used 3 colors! lol. I used the white Titanium White to paint the flowers and leaves, then mixed White into Burnt Umber to create the shading color for the flowers and leaves. Such a rebel Cindy-Lynn!

What is Gouache? Gouache is basically a mixture of Watercolor Paint and Acrylic Paint. It provides a more opaque color, and even looks awesome on dark papers. 
I wanted to keep this card very simple, and very monochromatic. So I stamped the flower from "Forever Blossoms" on a Sahara Sand Mat with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I chose that ink because it will not bleed when wet. I did use 2 coats of paint as I think I mixed too much water into my gouache and it wasn't opaque enough for me. Once I was done painting, I put a little bit of the paint mixture on the end of an acrylic block then 'splattered' the paint onto my paper. I did this with both colors I had mixed up. Added a few sequins (my favorite things!) and a couple pearls. And that was it! I wish I had of made a couple more of these at the same time. It was so easy to do, and the result is so pretty. But, as I only have one, I may hoard it in my stash for a long time before I part with it! haha

I did enter in a few challenges for this card. 
"Birthday Cards"

"Hand Colored Images"

"Favorite Embellishment"
