Thanks



If there's one thing that I have always loved about  the CAS Mix Up Challenge, it's the fact that there are always lots of different techniques to try. This time it's Loose Watercolouring.


If you are unsure of what to do, here are some terrific video tutorials.

For  my card, I began by spritzing the surface of the card with water before stamping the grid stamp by SU, then over-stamping with the Penny Black Butterfly and spritzing a little more to allow the colour of the Distress Oxide ink to move around. I stamped a little more card for the sentiment  and die cut the (Pink Fresh) Thanks.
Happy New Year Everyone!

    This has turned out so well, love that colour and what a brilliant idea to make the sentiment match the stamping. Must remember that one xx

    I love the layers you used as a background for your gorgeous butterfly! Die cutting the sentiment from the watercolored was a great idea!

    I love this effect, Chrissie. Isn't it great to find different ways to watercolour?? Your butterfly is so beautiful, especially in the shade of turquoise. The grid in the background is a great place for your butterfly to land. xx

    Simply the epitome of CAS with that lovely butterfly. Love the way you offset it within the mounting plus the added texture of the grid. Just exquisite.

    Really like the way you used the same colour on the die cut sentiment - a very striking card! x
