There's still time to join in at Penny Black Saturday Challenge.
'ANYTHING GOES/OPTIONAL 'SOMETHING NEW'
For this card, I masked and watercolored with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolour.
When it was completely dry, I stamped my new Fragile Beauty stamp using
gray ink. I let that dry and rubbed my embossing buddy all over then stamped
with white pigment ink and heat embossed.
I removed the mask, stamped a sentiment. The die cut popped over the top
was inspired by my friend Ros. I love how it adds dimension.
Since I've used cool colors to watercolor, I'll add this to the gallery at
And do check out the wonderful inspiration from the Design Team
and join in at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

Oh Bonnie this is exquisite - thanks for sharing how you made it with the masking and the embossing over the already stamped layer.

WOW...this is absolutely BEAUTIFUL Bonnie! It makes me think of what's right outside my window right now after all the snow came through last night! Your water colored edge is perfection with the stamped gray and white branches and I'm loving your little touch of Ros too with the die cut! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
Wow, Bonnie what a striking looking card and perfect for January! You are so creative with your design elements.
Just gorgeous, Bonnie! The way you white embossed over ths stamping, then added the additional dimension of the die cut....fabulous! Brings out the beauty of nature, even on stark, cold days!
Ros will love it, and I do, too, Bonnie! So very lovely!

Love this card, Bonnie! It has a wonderful frosty wintery feel to it. Beautiful colours, great layering of the stamps, and perfect finishing touch with the die cut branch.
Congratulations, Bonnie for your Guest Designer honor on Penny Black's Saturday Challenge. I LOVE your double stamping of your PB Fragile Beauty image over your beautiful watercolored masked background. I also love how Ros often adds die cut images to her main images. Your die cut foliage really makes your main image flow. TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy
The branches are so pretty against the blue Bonnie and love the white die cut foliage over the top. x
Just love your layered stamped branches, Bonnie! So pretty with the diecut branch coming down towards your sentiment!
Well this is special. That background behind the stamping is simply splendid. The white die cut branch adds the finishing touch too. A very special card, beautifully executed. xx
Beautiful stamping Bonnie - love how you added the die cut too!
Thanks so much for guest designing for us!

Wow, this is absolutely beautiful, Bonnie! Love the watercolored background in cool colors and the way you used the Fragile Beauty stamp! The additional die-cut definitely adds dimension and interest.

Bonnie, it's so wonderfully elegant with the blue background and the black and white tree branches :)
I love the layered stamping and die-cut overlay. The colours make it look very frosty. Gorgeous card!
Bonnie-this is such a pretty card-perfect for the winter! Wonderful! ♥ Sue Kment
What a stunning card for your guest designer spot. Embossing in white really made this card stand out and adding the leafy branch is gorgeous. This is one of my favorite cards of yours and that's hard to choose from all your great ones.
Stunningly beautiful and great stamping and masking. Amazing design and absolutely fabulous Bonnie x. Congratulations on guesting x.
Love how delicate and beautiful this card is, Bonnie! Fabulous design. Congrats on being GD at PB Saturday! xx
So Lovely!
Yes, these colors are very pretty. Very winter and frosty, I love the mix of colors that created the perfect winter sky
Hugs,

This card is amazing Bonnie! I can see why they want you to guest design for them as you are a pro my friend. I love this cold, frosty look on this card and the branches you have stamped and embossed. The white branch looks great layered on too. About how frosty we were looking last night with the freezing rain we got! Hugs, Brenda
Beautiful, Bonnie, and it's especially beautiful that you masked off and only watercolored one side -- splendid!
BEAUTIFUL! I adore the painted strip with the embossing!
WOWSERS! I can’t delete your notification because I want this stamp! What you’ve done with hit is amazing! You hit one out of the park with this one, Bonnie! It’s just gorgeous!
so beautiful....love the look.

OMG! I can’t believe this almost slipped right past me! Love, love, love... gorgeous colours, design and dimension. The added die cut over top adds so much interest. Did I mention I LOVE THIS! Well, just in case you weren’t sure... love it! 😉😂
Congrats again on guesting with PBS this month. 👏🎉🎉
I had to revisit this after I ran out and bought that branch stamp! This is superb, Bonnie and I hope I can do as well as you did with it. Love this!
Visiting this again! Going to try casing this today. I think I’m already breaking out in hives (laughing).
