Easy Watercolor Die Cuts for Cards that ANYONE can do

- In today's card making video I'm sharing a fun and easy watercolor technique that ANYONE can create. I'm using Lindy's Magicals and Nuvo Shimmer Powders to create messy watercolor sheets. From these beautiful canvases we will be cutting our flowers and leaves. The pieces are vibrant and have a beautiful shimmer from the mica pigment in these powders thus creating FABULOUS flowers. My samples are layered onto Gold Glimmer Foiled Backgrounds but step outside your comfort zone and audition other colors too.

Oh love this idea of using magicals, thanks so much for sharing. I love this release and the magicals give it more variation ad texture.
they make great paper for die cutting for sure
Love the color you used on the flower. And the foil background is great also; love the gold with the black.

I love Altenew's keyhole system. It makes layering so easy and fun! Great card. I've never used magicals before but it's definitely on my list of "have to try that!!"
Thank you Donna, also a huge fan of the Keyhole System, it makes putting die cuts together so easy. have fun with the Magicals, they truly are magical
Gorgeous teal flower, my favorite color as well! I love the star tulip die set ! I'm not into hot foiling yet but love the great sentiments set with dies. Thanks for the inspiration, the card is amazing!
thank you Sheri
Nicely done! Never seen the powder medium before. Very cool
thank you Josi, the powders are so fun to play with
Lovely
thank you
I really love your cards. I have never used those powder before. I wasn't sure how it worked. Thanks for showing us how. Now I can get some and try it. I'm loving this Hop; I am getting so many ideas for my own cards.
Thank you Lora, and yes the powders are super fun to play with you will love them
I really love this hop, the products are fantastic! Everyone loves this real color, I think I've fought it, but it's just so gorgeous! Lol I kept thinking that the tulips were peonies! Lol Really nice techniques and super creations Sandi! 😍💕
thanks so much Freida
Absolutely stunning card, a real work of art. Now the powder you used are they like colour burst powders I always end up with a hot mess. Thank you Sandi for sharing.
Hi Sandra, yes, they are very similar to colour burst, just a couple of different companies
Stunning card! The background is beautiful but I haven't jumped on the foiling wagon yet. Had to laugh when you talked up how very stuck the dies were to the packaging! Sometimes I worried some of the little dies would get bent when I was tryin to pull them off lol! I do also LOVE the keyhole or arrow they provide on their layering dies so that they are so easy to know exactly where/how each layer goes.
I know right? that tape is crazy sticky and I have bent dies getting them off of there. The keyhole system is genius as far as I'm concerned, such a little thing, but with HUGE benefits
Wow I’ve been thinking about getting magical been trying to find a good price. Your flower is absolutely Stunning 💜💜💜💐💐💐
take the leap, they are super fun to create with
Nice
thank you Candice
Your cards are just stunning. I have a love/hate relationship with my glimmer hot foiling machine and it's mostly hate...lol. My machine base is so hard to remove that even though I tape things down I still end up with over foil, skipped foil, etc. I have so many glimmer plates but I don't use them as never have much success with any of them. I have a couple press plates I bought when seeing how beautifully they seem to work in the Glimmer machine so I guess I best give them a try...yours came out just beautiful. I also have several bottles of Nuvo shimmer powders that I keep wondering why I bought them and what I am to do with them...now I know. Duh. Hard being old these days. lmao Thank you for sharing your creativity...helps to get me out of my box as I am on the older side at 75.
haha, I hear you about getting old, I'm 67 and things are just not what they used to be. with your Glimmer Hot Foil Machine, lift the handle up very gently about 1/2 inch, and then pull it out. Same with putting it back in, it needs to go in and out on a slight angle to release the pins. And, now you can go and play with your Shimmer powders, LOL. Have fun with them, they are very magical
Beautiful cards ! I love the black with gold hot foiled background!
thanks so much
