Soft Seedling stamp set with a little bit of watercoloring… for the softest effect ever!
This stamp set from the new July – December 2022 Mini Catalog is a stand alone stamp set (no bundle) and is a DistINKtive, beautiful and classic stamp set . Watercoloring these images just made the design even softer and more subtle!
I used our Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper as our base layer. This really allows for a pretty watercoloring effect without the inks running/bleeding into each other.
I stamped the image lightly with Crumb Cake ink and then used my Water Painter mixed with just a drop of Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie ink to add some color to the edges of the leaves.
My layers were trimmed as follows:
- Thick Basic White CS trimmed to 11 x 4 1/4 and scored at 5 1/2
- Crumb Cake CS trimmed to 5-1/4 x 4
- Watercolor Paper: 5 x 3 3/4
I loved playing with this stamp set and tried it with another watercolor technique for this one below! I heat embossed the image with Copper Emboss Powder (onto watercolor paper) and then washed it with a layer of Crushed Curry using my Water Painter.
I popped in a little strip of one of our Sale-A-Bration DSPs called Rings of Love to add to the ‘foresty’ feel to the card!

So very pretty. Nice, soft feeling to it. TFS.
I have been looking at the Soft Seedlings just about every time I opened the catalog. After seeing this card (and actually placing an order for myself today) I added it to my order. Can’t wait to get the set and start creating. Thank you for sharing your art with others.
I’m sure you are going to love this set!
