Let’s make a fun fold card with Cottage Rose and watercolor pencils

Hello, I hope you are well.

Today I’ve got a YouTube tutorial to share with you for this fun fold card with the beautiful Abigail Rose designer series paper, the Cottage Rose stamp set that I coloured with watercolor pencils…

It looks like a fairly standard card when its folded flat but when you open it the rose part kind of pops out…

You’ll see that I’ve embossed the card front and the rose image with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder but that was just to cover up a faux pas with my Cut & Emboss machine. However, I really do like the effect in the end.

Please watch my video to see what caused this extra detail and learn from my mistakes!! Lol. I also show you how you can blend 3 colours of watercolor pencils to get a different look on this gorgeous Cottage Rose stamp.
