Most Card Makers Layer Mixed Media Wrong

Mixed media looks complicated. It isn't. You just have to layer it in the right order. 💙 In this tutorial I'm walking you through how to combine watercolor, stamping, texture paste, and die cutting on one card without it turning into a muddy mess. This is the exact order I use when I want a card that feels detailed and dimensional but still clean. You'll learn: How to start with a watercolor background that won't fight your other layers Where stencils and texture paste belong in the stack When to stamp (and when to wait) How to add die cut elements last for that finished, dimensional look If you've been wanting to try mixed media but didn't know where to start, this is your one card, one layer at a time entry point. ✏️Full Supply List:https://ldli.co/e/5y3o0qk This list contains affiliate links, which help support me at no cost to you. ——— S U P P L I E S ——— • Watercolor Paper Set (A2 loose sheets) - Cold Pressed | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/5y3o01k [ Altenew ] • Watercolor Compact - Bold Ember | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/3o206lg [ Altenew ] • Cascading Elegance Stencil ——— https://ldli.co/e/m5od2ym [ Altenew ] • Tim Holtz Distress Spritz Uncharted Mariner ——— https://ldli.co/e/e2d49y2 [ papertreyink.com ] ——— https://ldli.co/e/qy37exr [ SimonSaysStamp ] ——— https://ldli.co/e/jqnlgyo [ Scrapbook.com ] • Northern Shore Fresh Dye Ink | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/yedq761 [ Altenew ] • Charming Flowers | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/p35kml0 [ Altenew ] • Halftone Stencil | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/rnmql1z [ Altenew ] • White Relief Paste | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/om29orl [ Altenew ] • Zero-Waste: Wildflower Meadow Die | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/lmg14y1 [ Altenew ] • Willow Branches | Altenew ——— https://ldli.co/e/xl1qknj [ Altenew ] 💌 Stay Connected ✨ Join my email list for exclusive classes, giveaways, and crafty inspiration → https://nickiheartscards.myflodesk.co... ✨ Follow me on Instagram for daily crafty inspiration →   / nickiheartscards   ✨ Check out my blog for more tutorials and supply lists → https://nickiheartscards.com/ ✨Find me on Facebook →   / nickiheartscards   💖 Support My Channel If you loved this video, hit 👍 and subscribe for more crafty fun!
