Watercolor Ocean Themed Card with Studio Katia Jawesome and Gansai Tambi Watercolors

Hi everyone! It’s Laura here and today I am back with a card featuring the new Jawesome stamp set! Stay tuned until the endo of this post, as there is a video tutorial showing how to make it!

As a first step I started working on the ocean background. 

I die cut some Canson XL watercolor cardstock with the scalloped rectangle die in the Scallop Hearts Cover set and did some very quick watercoloring with Gansai Tambi watercolors.I also created a sand bank by die cutting some more watercolor cardstock with the Darling Ribbon & Frame dies and the Trimmings Border dies. I painted it with Gansai Tambi Watercolors and I started working on my images.

The stamp set I used for today’s card is the new Jawesome stamp set. I stamped the images with hybrid black ink on Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock and colored them with Spectrum Noir markers. I then die cut them with the coordinating dies.Next, I die cut the ocean background with the Scallop Hearts Cover set. I created an inlaid die-cutting effect by adhering the ocean background to a white base using one layer of foam tape. The white base was die cut with the Darling Ribbon & Frames dies. 

I created my scene and glued all the elements in place, raising the sharks on some foam tape.I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder and added some final details with a white gel pen, a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Pen and some Nuvo Drops in Morning Dew. 

And that’s my card for today! As I mentioned at the beginning of this post I recorded a video tutorial for you, showing how to create this fun ocean theme card. You can watch it down below or directly on my YouTube channel. 

 Thank you all so much for stopping by and have a great day!
