Take Two Thursday: Welcome Little One

Hiya!

I just love Take Two Thursdays...because Katie comes up with some super clever things with the stamp set we pick.  It is the beauty of art, ya know, the different inspiration we come up with.  This week, we went with Avery Elle's Storybook stamp set.  It is just so adorable.

I never get tired of the watercolor look, especially when it blends and moves on its own.  So, to begin, I took a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor paper, and wet it with a paint brush.  I then rubbed a bit of Studio Calico's Sunny Day, and Well Red on my craft mat, and used that as a palette to apply the ink to my paper.

After it was dry, I stamped my sentiment, as well as the sweet duck image onto the panel.  I then stamped the image again, and paper-pieced it, using more watercolor paper.  I added some of the stars from the set, and a strip of patterned paper from the Hello Sunshine 6x6 paper pad from Pink Paislee.

Please stop on over to see what Katie did with this set, and thanks always, for stopping by!
