I just LOVE the new Dots and Designs Rub-Ons in the Summer Mini! I’ll admit I haven’t used Rub-Ons much before in my card-making, mainly on 3D projects …….but these were so easy to use and create with. The colours in this pack are Chocolate Chip, Ruby Red and Whisper White…..with a touch of Regal Rose and Close to Cocoa.
The card above has only minimal stamping, just the greeting. I could have used a greeting from the new Chit Chat Rub-Ons (also in the Summer Mini, p.5) and completed the entire card without inking up any rubber at all!
Here’s another one I was inspired to make after I saw one by the amazing Beth Stewart at our Regional training day in November :
How yummy are these colours together??!
Inspired to create a card like this yourself? Below is a list of what I’ve used to put my card together.

Gorgeous Ness! Haven’t bought these ones…yet!
Hi Vanessa,
A technical stampin up question – which is better for doing water colours like on page 13 of the current mini catalogue – the aqua painter or the blender pens. i don’t have any of the water colour crayons or pastels only the ink pads.

Great question Anne!
Personally, my all-time favourite watercolouring medium would have to be Stampin’ Up!’s Water Colour Crayons. They are so rich in colour……you can buy 12 of them at a time, and use them successfully with either Blender Pens or the Aqua Painters, they work well on any cardstock too eg Whisper White, Very Vanilla, Confetti White/Cream as well as the Water Colour paper for that authenitc look.
I use the Classic Inkpads and Pastels too, usually with a Blender Pen and I’m usually happier with the result if I use them on heavier papers like the Water Colour paper, Naturals Ivory or Confetti.
You can also water colour with our Markers……….. and I can demonstrate that technique for you sometime too if you like 🙂
