Kim called this technique Orange Peel. She said it didn't have a name, so she made one for this gorgeous technique! When the watercolor paper is embossed, it looks like the dimples on the orange peel! This is definitely a WOW card!
Let's cut the paper. You'll need Emerald Envy, Fruit Stand DSP, Whisper White, and Watercolor Paper.

Adhere the Fruit Stand DSP to the Emerald Envy card base.
Stamp the Banner Strip with either the striped image from the Playful Backgrounds stamp set or the Brushstrokes background stamp with Emerald Envy ink. Then punch one end with the Triple Banner Punch. Position and adhere the Banner Strip the Fruit Stand DSP as shown in the photograph. Trim any excess the overhangs the top of the card.
Fill a spritzer with water.
Press the peach image into the Peekaboo Peach ink pad. Then daub Flirty Flamingo ink along the outside of the peach image. Stamp the peach in the center of the watercolor circle. Putting two colors of ink onto the stamp adds fantastic depth and shading! Wow!
Press the solid leaf image into the Pear Pizzazz ink pad. Then daub Emerald Envy ink along the bottom edges of the leaf image. Stamp the leaf above the peach.
If this wasn't gorgeous enough, spritz a bunch of water all over the watercolor circle and watch the colors meld! While the paper is still wet, generously coat the entire paper with clear embossing powder. Heat the embossing powder to reveal the orange peel effect. Swoon! Allow the paper to fully dry and cool before attaching with dimensionals to the center of your striped banner.
You can really see the two colors on the peach here inside the card! I daubed just the left edge and the left center of the peach and the bottom edges of the leaves. Experiment with where you place the second color and how much you place to find the look you like best.
Yep! This peach looks almost good enough to eat! I hope you have enjoyed all six of these fabulous Fresh Fruit cards by Kim Williams! On Stage 2016 was overwhelming in a great way with amazing products and demonstrations! Now I'm sure you can see why I was so excited to attend! Makes you want to become a demonstrator too, doesn't it?!?
