Hello! Today I have a favorite technique to share called watercolor resist. I am using some images and dies from the April 2019 Hedgehog Hollow Kit.

It’s a really easy technique, but can be quite an eye catcher!

First, I stamped the birdhouse onto some watercolor paper using Versafine Onyx Black ink. Then I embossed it with some clear embossing powder.

Then, I used Gansai Tambi watercolors in rainbow colors on the first panel and overlapped them a little bit. The heat embossing resists that watercolor!

I die cut the panel down with a rectangle die cut. Then I cut the vines (also in the kit!) from the outer edges of the watercolor panel. No sense letting that beautiful color go to waste!

To finish off this card, I used the polka dot paper from the Kit as a mat, and added a black frame. I popped up some birdies with 3M Foam tape and used some pearls for the final touch.

I made another card using a cool color palate. The green polka dot paper was also included in the kit!

I hope you enjoyed this project! Visit the Hedgehog Hollow for more information about these card kits! Thanks for stopping by.
