Gold Embossing + Watercolors | Color Combos with Crystal

September 11, 2018 - by Crystal Thompson

Gold Embossing + Watercolors | Color Combos with Crystal

Happy Tuesday friends!  Welcome to my newest series featuring GOLD. Today’s color combo was inspired by all the things that can be done with the gorgeous Unity Stamps and gold embossing powder. So for the next three Tuesdays I will be sharing a project made with gold embossing powder and the gorgeous Unity Stamps.

For today’s project I am using the stamp set called Obsessively Grateful. This is a newer set released last month.

To make this card, I heat embossed the FALL sentiment.

Then, I heat embossed the leaves around the sentiment. 

Once these had cooled off a bit, using watercolors. I added a light wash of light brown to the background. (allow to dry to prevent color blending)

Start by adding light washes of color to each leaf, allowing drying time in between layers.

Finish off with a splatter of gold watercolor or gold spritzing.

Of course I can show you, better thank I can tell you. Check out the Video on this card.

 

Come back next week for another simple, yet stunning card using more gold embossing powder and Unity Stamps.

 

Hugs!

Crystal
