The weather man says we should see 45º and sunshine today, so I’m doing a happy dance! The warmer weather brings with it inspiration for today’s card. I was feeling a little artsy, so I decided to make a messy watercolor painting. Soft pastels, with a nice splash of warm sunshine!
I don’t really think instructions are necessary, since this is such a simple design. I just heat embossed the sentiment with Irridescent Ice Stampin’ Emboss Powder onto a piece of watercolor paper and then used my reinkers and Aqua painter to add color. Once I had the colors the way I wanted them, I flicked and dropped water randomly and let it dry to create the spotches and splatters. Add a layer of vellum underneath, pop it up with dimensoinals, add a little bling (the sequins were from my sewing box, lol), and voila!
See ya next time … ink, ink, smudge, smudge!
