Everyone made a card from the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit.  This kit makes a great gift for new stampers because you have everything you need except adhesive.  It's also great for experienced stampers because you can use the supplies but let your creativity flow!   Plus, you can use the fabulous stamp set for years to come!

Designer Paper make a quick and easy card look great!  We colored in a few of the dot to tie-in the Hello Honey color.

To do the Rubber Band Technique:

-Wrap different size rubber bands around the clear block.

Use scrap paper or a sticky note to mask the edges of where you want to stamp the rubber bands.

We inked up the embossing folder before running it through the Big Shot!
