Mediterranean Moments

This stamp set is AMAZING!!  The set was designed by Million $ Demo Susan Nygaard.  I have swapped with her several times at Convention. So many ways to use this set.  I will show you 2 cards today using Designer paper patterns from Succulent Gardens as a backdrop.

 All my cards started with Watercolor paper and Stazon ink.  Stamp the image(I used the Misti to get crisp lines) and then decide how you will color.  This card base and Ribbon is Sweet Sugarplum.  Rich Razzleberry backs the watercoloring.  I used the Stitched Shapes Square to cut out the image.

I was going for a Calico cat, but ended up a bit muddy.  Did not leave enough white space, will try again next time.  I used the Water Color pencils to color and then blended with the Aqua Painter.

This Cafe Scene really turned out like I envisioned.  The Stripe pattern from Succulent Garden Designer paper reminds me of an Awning.  Love the New Doilies and a snip of Dapper Denim ruched ribbon on a Dapper Denim card base.
