Watercolour Hello
Hello…remember me? I know its been a long time. There have been several reasons for my absence, but mostly I just needed a break from card making. Ever been there?
Anyway, I am currently taking the Online card class – Watercolor for Cardmakers and I made a card!
For this card I created a watercoloured background using distress markers. Firstly I heat embossed the background stamp in white embossing powder and then roughly coloured the image in with Distress Markers. I then spritzed the panel with water and watched the colours blend.
Once dry I cut out the letters and inlaid them back in to create a flush image.
Supplies
Stamps: Hero Arts and Basic Grey ‘Flower dot pattern’ stamp
Card: Canson watercolour paper, AnnaBelle Stamps smooth white cardstock, Hero Arts Azure layering papers
Ink: Distress Markers – Salty Ocean, Broken China, Mowed Lawn, Evergreen Bough, Peeled Paint
Other Supplies: My Favorite Things High Rise lowercase alphabet letter dies, Cuttlebug, AnnaBelle Stamps white embossing powder, Heat tool, Anti-Static pillow, Water spray bottle.
I hope to be back really soon.
