Hello there! I have been very inspired by all different watercolor mediums lately and today I wanted to share how to create a fur texture on your image using Stabilo pens. In today’s video I will be using the new clear stamp set from Kraftin’ Kimmie called Happy Winter Days.
To use the Stabilo pens add some of the color down in your image on the watercolor card stock. To activate the ink water it out using a paintbrush. If you would like more texture add less water so the pen lines will show.
I used Brusho to create the fun winter background. These are the four different blue colors that I have used: Prussian Blue, Cobalt Blue, Ost. Blue, and Aqua Marine. I love how awesome the Brusho powders look and will definitely be using them in the future.
I added some Glossy Accents to create dimension and highlight some of the accessories and ornaments on the card.
This stamp set will be released on October 10th at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps. Also, be sure to stop by Facebook and join the live Kraftin’ Kimmie event before the stamps get released!
Enjoy the video!

Simon I am smitten wth this card! First of all that fox is just the cutest little creature and using the Stablio pens (which are new to me by the way) really seemed o give you the ability to obtain the textured look you were after. I also love the Brusho bg you made the colors hold their own w/o overpowering your stamped images. Thank you for another great video.
My my Simon! Your card rocks! Love the blue back drop you created and the colouring on your little fox is divine! WTG!
