For this card, I am using So Saffron and Early Espresso along with Soft Succulent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have really enjoyed my moments with Soft Succulent. It is such a warm gray-green color; it sometimes lends itself toward blue. And mixing in Early Espresso is easy, this deep and rich neutral brown always shines. But, So Saffron has never been my favorite yellow. However, once I began to work this subtle color in, it started to grow on me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enjoy The Moment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With my color palette of green, brown and yellow, I wanted a nature themed card. My first thought was some lovely autumn leaves or trees. But as I thumbed through the Stampin\u2019 Up! Annual Catalog, another stamp set caught my eye: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/enjoy-the-moment-cling-stamp-set?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enjoy The Moment<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/enjoy-the-moment-cling-stamp-set?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enjoy The Moment Stamp Set<\/a> has great sketch style images of various seed pods, nuts, seeds and the like. I began with the largest image, the trio of seed pods, and stamped it using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/versamark-pad?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VersaMark Ink<\/a> on Water Color Paper. Next, I added <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/metallics-stampin-emboss-powders?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Copper Metallic Embossing Powder<\/a> and heat set it with my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/heat-tool?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Heat Tool<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?resize=800%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Heat embossing with a stamp from Enjoy The Moment Stamp Set\" class=\"wp-image-2870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134412.jpg?w=2400&amp;ssl=1 2400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TIP<\/strong>: Keep a small generic paintbrush handy to swipe away loose particles of embossing powder from your paper <em>before<\/em> you heat emboss it. This will help minimize stray powder from being a permanent fixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Moments of Watercoloring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After my focal point image was heat embossed, I began to watercolor the image and surrounding paper. I started by placing a single drop of ink refill from Early Espresso, Soft Succulent and So Saffron onto a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/clear-block-d?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clear Acrylic Block<\/a>. By keeping the refill bottles near the corner of the clear block that coordinates with the ink drops, I know what color is where at a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_134824.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Ink Refills for watercoloring\" class=\"wp-image-2871\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/classic-stampin-ink-refill-early-espresso?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Early Espresso Ink Refill<\/a> drop and my smallest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/water-painters?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Water Painter Brush<\/a>. With a small squeeze of the barrel, I mixed some water with the ink. Then, I covered the middle of my embossed seed pod trio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_135007.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Watercoloring with Early Espresso Ink Refill\" class=\"wp-image-2872\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, I moved onto the medium <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/water-painters?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Water Painter Brush<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/soft-succulent-classic-stampin-ink-refill?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Soft Succulent Ink Refill<\/a> drop. Again, I added some water from my Water Painter barrel to the ink drop to lighten the color and make it easier to water wash with. I swept the color along the bottom and sides of the embossed stem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_135139.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Watercoloring with Soft Succulent Ink Refill\" class=\"wp-image-2873\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, I used the largest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/water-painters?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Water Painter Brush<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/classic-stampin-ink-refill-so-saffron?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">So Saffron Ink Refill<\/a> drop. I took care to not run the yellow into either the brown or green. This way, each color would stand out on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"800\" width=\"800\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_135330-1024x1024.jpg?resize=800%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Watercoloring with So Saffron Ink Refill\" class=\"wp-image-2874\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TIP: Cleaning Your Water Painter Brushes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Squeeze some water from the barrel and let it wash over the brush end. At the same time, use either a baby wipe or a paper towel to wipe away the inky remains. It is okay if your brush ends are stained. As long as no ink transfers when you swipe the bristles, you are good to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_135738.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cleaning Water Painters\" class=\"wp-image-2876\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enjoying Background Stamping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is not a lot of designer series paper in either Early Espresso or So Saffron that I could use on my card. So instead, I created my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a layer of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/cardstock-8-1-2-x-11-so-saffron?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">So Saffron Cardstock<\/a>, I stamped the hanging thistle image from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/enjoy-the-moment-cling-stamp-set?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enjoy The Moment Stamp Set<\/a>, using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stampinup.com\/products\/classic-stampin-pad-so-saffron?demoid=2116612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">So Saffron Ink<\/a>.

My quick fix for this is to add a piece of like color cardstock to the back. This helps to raise up the \u201clower\u201d side and make it lay flat when I adhere it to my card. By using the same color, it blends in beautifully if viewed from a side angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_144340.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Adding a little lift to the layer with additional cardstock\" class=\"wp-image-2889\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211031_144445.jpg?w=800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Preparing the focal point for adhering to the card front\" class=\"wp-image-2890\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before I could adhere the sentiment, I needed to place my sprig punched pieces.
