Hello and welcome!
Today starts a brand new trend challenge over at Just Us Girls hosted by Bobby!
She has chosen:
For my card I first watercolored a piece of watercolor paper with Distress Crayons in blues and greens and then after it dried, I added a Tim Holtz floral stencil and texture paste. After it dried it took on the color of the Distress Crayons but lighter and really shiny! I cut it out with a dotted rectangle die, matted it on black card stock, and then added it to a card base. Lastly I stamped, heat embossed and adhered the sentiment to the front.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, love the depth of colour in the background, Cathy x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. It's amazing how the paste seems to soak up the colour even when you have it super dry. It gives such a cool look. love the colours you did your beautiful background in.
ReplyDeleteI love the soft color the texture paste over Distress Inks gave you, Angie. The black border and sentiment strip set it off beautifully.
ReplyDeleteDistressed crayons...hmmm! Going to have to look into those! This came out gorgeous! Love the color combo!!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous! Your background is so pretty, I'm thinking I might need those Distress Crayons. The soft embossing with that floral stencil is soooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the dramatic black over the vibrant color~it really pops! Thank you for the shout out; I'm enjoying my time with you all~
