Hi friends, I'm back with another card project for you today featuring the brand new Essentials by Ellen United We Flourish set, G’Day Mate by Avery Elle. I had so much fun with this one!
First, let me tell you a bit about Ellen Hutson's United we Flourish program. Here's what she says about it:
Last November we began celebrating our 10th anniversary with the theme United We Flourish. And what does United We Flourish mean? It means that our company would not be here without the amazing companies we work with, the designers who create stunning projects showcasing the wonderful products being created AND you, our fabulous customers! YOU are such a vital part of our creative community - you inspire & encourage us! Your response to United We Flourish was overwhelming and heart-warming. We heard repeatedly from you that you appreciate how our little company works together with the other manufacturers we carry to bring you their products and education showing how to use those products. To thank you for your constant support and encouragement, we have partnered with some of our friends to offer exclusive limited edition stamp & die sets!!! These sets will be available for a limited time (most likely 3-6 months) after each release, depending on how quickly you snap them up. The theme of these stamps sets are uplifting and fun.
Awesome, right?
So onto my contribution with this cute set. I chose to use the kangaroo stamp as she is so adorable.
Along with the stamp set, I used watercolor paper and the following watercolors:
Daniel Smith Bronzite Genuine
Kuretake No. 43 - Mid Yellow
Kuretake No. 90 - Gold
I stamped the kanagroo with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then colored her with Copic markers in the following colors: E11, E13 (currently only the refill is available in the store), E23, E33, W3.To attach her to the card, I used 3D foam stickers which set her off from the background to give depth. Finally, I glued the watercolor paper onto Taylored Expressions Lemon Meringue cardstock.
Thanks so much for joining me today. Here is a look at the items from the Ellen Hutson shop:
