IF YOU USE STAMPS BY HAPPY LITTLE STAMPERS AND YOU ARE OUR RANDOM WINNER, YOUR PRIZE WILL BE DOUBLED!

 
I wnted to use a digistamp that I got a little while ago from Bugaboo, so printed it out on some Bristol board but the ink smudged as soon as I added the watercolour, the second one I left overnight but it still smudged. Watercolour paper would not go through the printer and my Stampin Up card bubbles with water, then I has a brainwave. If the ink wasn't drying on the Bristol board I could emboss it, and it worked. 
I coloured my dragon with Zigs in Welsh dragon colours, cut it out with L'il Inkers stitched square dies and affset it onto a red mat, before putting it on a green plaid background.

I'm looking forward to seeing all your entries!

    My printer doesn't normally take water colour paper 300gsm. So I have to print the image in the middle of an A4 piece of 80gsm paper. Cut a piece of water colour paper the size you want and then centre it over the image. Attach a very small piece of double sided tape to the corners of the watercolour paper and line it up over the image. Then put it into your printer. It is tricking the printer to think it is just a normal piece of paper. Has worked for me ok.
    Love your little dragon and a very sweet card. Hugs, Carol S.xx
