Helllooooo there! It’s me here with a little stamped watercolor fun…I got happy mail from my friends at Art Impressions, and I decided to take a momentary sabbatical break and make a few winter cards to send out at the first of the year.
Supplies for this project are linked at the end of this post. Compensated affiliate links may be used at no cost to you.
My card “theme” for these – winter! I’ve been sharing all wintery/Christmassy projects all month, so decided to try using just 2 Tombow colors (526 and 879, with a tiny bit of 565 and 373 tossed in) to create a wintery feel. All the new stamps of course can be used by most with flowers and grasses and shrubs but…the coolest bit in this release is the SCENES – there are several here, and they’re *clear* stamps. Kinda awesome for working out placement!
First – this Gazebo card is an igtv/fb video (meaning a quick little one with no voiceover) on Facebook and Instagram.
Next up, the Ornate Window – no flowers! I did use the bricks around the window, and added some crazy Glossy Accents (second pic) with glitter for the snow!
I added a container to my snowy Rocking Chair (am I the only one who regrets leaving yard furniture out all winter?) and even attempted a little negative painting around some of the stems sticking out of the snow…
This is one of the scenes I mentioned – Stone Creek. Combined it with some new trees from Mini Foliage, which has plants small enough for these landscapes. And the people and dog are from Silhouettes – adding a dot on top of the figures so they’d have hats!
And one last card to share – a peek at what will be a video in a couple weeks once I’m back to editing again! I used the Watercolor Barn, Fenced Scene, Mini Foliage, and Silhouettes.
These scene cards are also excellent for things like slimline cards – this one uses my apparently favorite Trinity slimline die (lol)….and I made a continuous scene with the houses in the Village set.
Classes
Both stamped watercolor classes are available if you need to do a deeper dive into these kinds of cards!

Stunning & very appropriate as I look out my window at the thick falling snow we have in the UK today x Have a great start to 2021 x
You are rocking the minimal color schemes right now! Love these along with the one-color painting you did.
Beautiful Winter scenes and they look amazing with just a few colors.
these are amazing Sandy!
