Technique Junkies - Wildflower Hiking Boots

Hello! Tracy Shultz, The Hopeful Crafter, here today to share the beautiful Wildflower Hiking Boots stamp from Technique Junkies (SD1122) and the sentiment stamp: World Reveals Itself (SDX196). I made three cards, each using the emboss resist water coloring technique.  These are part of the August 2021 New Release from Technique Junkies.

I used an emboss resist technique to water color my cards. The first one (pictured above) is colored with reinkers from Catherine Pooler.  I layered the stamped imagine, as well as the sentiment,  on top of a mat that I ink blended with Catherine Pooler Inks. I created a video tutorial on my YouTube channel with step-by-step details on how I put these cards together:

For my second card, I used the same emboss resist technique, and I water colored with Zig Clean Color dye ink makers. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment directly below the image. I layered the stamped imagine, as well as the sentiment, on top of a special mat layer. This mat was created with Vivid Volt and Mindaro Shimmering Bliss Sprays. I used the Skeleton Leaf Stencil from a Colorful Life Designs. This stencil is available at Technique Junkies. I ink blended on top of the stencil, using Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink. I trimmed the top panel and used the Crop-A-Dile - 2 in 1 Corner Punch Chomper Tool to cut rounded corners. 

For my final card, I water colored the embossed image with Zig Clean Color dye ink makers. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment directly below the image. I dried the water colored boots and and sprayed the entire panel with Mixed Metals Shimmering Bliss spray from Technique Junkies. I used hairspray as a fixative for the Simmering Bliss spray. I trimmed the top panel and used the Crop-A-Dile - 2 in 1 Corner Punch Chomper Tool to cut rounded corners. I used the A Colorful Life Designs new Mountain Edger Stencils to create a background panel. I used Catherine Pooler inks to ink blend the stencils and created mountain ranges. I also used the A Colorful Life Designs Cloud Edger Stencil, available at Technique Junkies, to create clouds above the mountains.
