Hello and Welcome to the Fall Release for The Ton Stamps!
I'm so honored to be included in the hop today! I adore The Ton's floral stamps and their fall/holiday collection is no different!
The Ton has 24 new stamps, coordinating dies and 6 Couture Mixes for their new Fall 2017 Release which includes up to three free gifts with purchases. For more information on The Ton’s incentive gifts, head over to The Ton’s blog. All new release products are available now!
I started out with the gorgeous Holiday Love Poinsettia. Wow is all I can say! The image in this set is such a perfect size for the focal point of a card.
I've white heat embossed the image onto Bristol Smooth watercolor paper. I had fun watercoloring using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers for this deep poinsettia color. I used Deep Red, Wine Red, and Carmine Red. For the leaves I used Mid Green and Olive Green. To highlight my image, I watercolored around the perimeter of the poinsettia with watered down Distress Oxide ink in Broken China. It gives the most perfect shade of blue! (the photo makes it lighter than in real life) I stamped my greeting in Versafine Onyx Black ink and did some gold flicks of Heidi Swapp Color Shine. My panel was trimmed, layered onto a pink panel, and a strip of black/white pattern paper adhered down the left side. This card is essentially one layer and will be perfect for mailing this holiday season!

Next, I am changing gears a bit and am using the Magnificent Magnolias stamp set. I've stamped the largest magnolia image onto Bristol Smooth watercolor paper both in the left lower and upper right corner with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I've used this ink because it is very good with watercolor!
Using watered down Distress Oxide inks in Worn Lipstick and Peeled Paint, I loosely colored in the images, letting the panel dry completely in between layers. This is key in achieving this look. After letting my panel dry, I splattered some black ink over my colored images. My sentiment was white heat embossed onto a thin strip of black cardstock and trimmed at an angle. My sentiment was adhered with foam adhesive over a strip of silver glitter cardstock and a few sparkling clear confetti were adhered.
