VIDEO: Powdered Watercolor Fall Cards + Dairy Free Butter Chicken

We got a break from the heat! AND we got rain! In typical Texas style, we got WAYYYY too much, but holy cow it's been a long time and we are grateful.

So it's the perfect time to bust out some fall stamps. I used this gorgeous layering leaf set for this first card - with the solid layer in powdered watercolor on the bottom, and gold embossing for the detail layer. 

See the gold spots? I did that by just flicking clean water onto the paper after I was done with the rest, and adding gold embossing powder and heating. Yes, you can emboss with water! I taught this technique at my very first in person retreat in 2016. The sentiment is from the same set. This set does have matching dies.

I did the exact same technique with this sunflower set - it's a beautiful botanical, but it has these AWESOM modern design elements in it like this swoopy line I stamped, as well as some fun corner elements. The little heart splatter is from the same set, and I added a few white dots with a paint pen among the black parts. I also added white paint pen dots to the flower center. I cut the flower out with the matching dies.



Here is the video for this technique, using an older leaf stamp set - so fun!!

Want a GREAT recipe? Oh my gosh - I made this and it's PHENOMENAL! Also, through this recipe I discovered that they now sell little 5.4 oz. cans of coconut cream. PERFECT for recipes! If you love butter chicken but can't eat dairy - you will LOVE this. It rivals anything I've had in a restaurant. I didn't have some of the ingredients, so you can see what I subbed in my annotated copy HERE. YUM. 

Loveyameanitbye.
