All Occasion: Floral Watercolor with Gold Embossing
I used watercolor paper with sponges for a smooth transition of color. The picture does not do justice; the center is quite yellow out to dark orange on the edges. I embossed Flowering Flourishes with gold embossing powder before I started. Then I sponged the color on. After the paper was dry, I used the background stamp and added the strips and sponged flowers. The strips were also stamped with a background stamp and lightly sponged.

Christmas: City Skyline
A watercolored night scene using Brusho watercolor powders. The city is a Lawn Fawn die. The bottom of the card also uses the Brusho powders, but I put some powder in water for a lighter effect.

Christmas: Pop-Up Gift Card Holder
Another gift card holder. I used Lawn Fawn's Gift Card Pop-up for the inside of the card. I decorated the front of the card, then adhered the pop-up along the fold of the card. Another easy gift card holder.

Christmas: Watercolor Powder and Embossed Poinsettias
I have discovered watercolor powder! Oh my goodness, I love the vibrant colors and the ease of use.
I used Versa Mark ink with the holly and poinsettias and embossed with silver embossing powder. Then I sprinkled the watercolor powder onto the card and spritzed. And the powder created this beautiful background.
