Gina K ~ Festive Foliage Tutorial

Welcome to Monday and the start of the Christmas cardmaking season.  This pretty Christmas set from Gina K Designs is called Festive Foliage by illustrator Claire Brennan.  Below is a tutorial on how I stamped the background with Spectrum Aqua Markers.



Step 1: Using the holly leaf image, color the entire image with the Spectrum Aqua Olive marker.




Step 2: Using the Moss marker, dot the edges of the image.


Step 3: Spray the inked image with a fine mist of water ~ you don't need much.



Step 4: Stamp on watercolor paper.


Step 5: Using a waterbrush, blend the ink colors.


Step 6: Using the Crimson Spectrum Aqua marker, color the berry image.  Then add Wine Red (Zig Clean Color Real Brush Marker) to the edge of each berry.


Step 7: Spritz with water & stamp on the holly leaves.

Repeat around the entire card panel for the background & add a stamped sentiment.


Have a wonderful day!
