RG Make Amazing Blog Hop

Hey there and welcome to the RG Make Amazing Blog Hop! Today we'll show you sneaks of the beautiful, soon to be released, new Richard Garay line Make Amazing Happen. I love this pretty collection and I am sure you will, too! I had some of the stamps to work with and wanted to combine them with a little watercoloring:


I started with a panel of watercolor paper and applied various watercolors to create my background. After it was dried, I adhered the panel to a yellow card base. Then I stamped and heat-embossed the flower from the Amazing Happens stamp set onto vellum, as well as the leaves from the Amazing You set and the Amazing Blooms set. After I had heat-set the silver embossing powder, I fussy-cut the images. Now I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from the Brave You set onto a strip of vellum and adhered it to the card. I adhered the images and finished the card off with some sequins.



I hope you liked today's sneak peek of the new collection! For more details, be sure to hop to the Richard Garay Blog! Can't wait to show you more using the pretty papers and wonderful dies!
