Bareback


I finished up this card late last night using another image from the retired Stampin' Up! set called Bareback. See my post below for another horse image from the set. There is also one more horse stamp that I haven't used from this set yet.

The image is stamped on watercolor paper with Versafine Black Onyx ink, embossed with clear embossing powder and watercolored with Tombow markers. This time I used a lot of water and gave it a more watercolor effect rather than precise coloring. Since the horses hind quarters fade out of the picture I thought perhaps more of a muted, watery coloring would work for this.

The designer paper is from My Mind's Eye.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my cards.

  4. Jennifer, I never even thought about embossing the images to water colour... I can tell that it makes the image more crisp on watercolour paper! Thank you@
