Neat and Tangled Release Day 2 | You're a Ge

Hey there, welcome to the first day of the July Neat and Tangled release. The second stamp set up is called You're a Gem and it certainly is.  I love all of the different shapes and sizes included in this set. The beautiful, bold script is perfect for large sentiments.


To create this card I used the Neat and Tangled You're a Gem stamp and die sets with Versafine Ink. Next, I colored a handful of images with Dr. Ph Martin's India Ink. I love how bold the colors are! The gems were layered at the bottom of the card, some with a bit of foam tape for lift. 



The bold sentiment was stamped in Onyx Ink. The entire card was framed out and placed on stripped patterned paper. A few sprinkles of clear Dew Drops finish off this fun card.

Neat and Tangled will be giving away a You're a Gem stamp set. To enter, leave a comment below to be entered. Tell me what's your favorite watercolor brand is. Visit the Neat and Tangled blog on Friday for a list of winners. Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

  1. Beautiful card!! I love how you layered your gems for a dimensional look 😊 I don't do a lot of watercoloring yet, it's a technique I'm still learning, but have used my distress inks to watercolor and I loved them for that.

  2. Great card! So clean even with all that color, awesome! I just got a set of St. Petersburgh watercolors and they are really great. Especially after using what I call El Cheapo watercolors for awhile.
