Sometimes when you make a card, you don’t really know what design you are going to come up with! All I knew was I wanted to use the beautiful Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper and our Silver Foil Sheets. I layered the flowery piece of designer paper on the strip of Silver Foil, but I had cut the foil too wide.  I trimmed it off and decided that scrap would look good going across the bottom of the card! I wouldn’t have thought of that ahead of time, it just happened.  So when you are making cards and projects, just play and see what you come up with!

For the greeting, I used the one in the stamp set Happy Watercolor. To match the Silver Foil Sheet I had used, I decided to emboss the greeting with Pewter Stampin’ Emboss Powder and the Heat Tool.

The card base is Island Indigo, which is one of the coordinating colors with the Watercolor Wonder DSP. You can look on the back of any package of designer paper and see what Stampin’ Up! colors coordinate with the paper. The catalog also lists them.
