Hey everyone! Just popping in to share a couple of cards I made recently. I've had some time to craft this week after putting my son to bed as my husband is taking a gun safety course all this week. So, I get to make cards. Going to do that again after this post! :-)
So, I had this piece of watercolour paper that I had done some watercolour stencilling a while ago and I decided to finally put it to use. And it turned out to be big enough for two cards! Take a look....
Using my water brush pen and Spectrum Aqua markers (Bud Green, Teal, Navy, Yellow), I watercoloured through my stencil (The Crafter's Workshop). I cut the piece in half and then stamped my branch stamps (CAS-ual Fridays) in black Versamark ink in the corner. Then I stamped the sentiments (STAMPlorations) in black as well. I added some sequins (Neat and Tangled) in matching colours and mounted the panels on some coloured cardstock. One on a medium teal and one on a lime green. I really love how these turned out.
I hope you enjoyed your visit today. Thanks for dropping by!
I'd like to link up the first card to the following challenges:
CAS Mix-up Card Challenge - Stamping + Stencilling + Watercolour and Sequins
AAA Card Challenge - anything goes

Love your palette. These cards are so aesthetically appealing. My hubs' hobby is shooting... I always think it's cool when he's "doing his thing" while I'm doing mine :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Kim. These cards are awesome! LOVE this design and layout. Your watercoloured stenciling is so cool ... and pretty. Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx
ReplyDeleteGreat when you can get the two cards out of the one. The backgrounds work so well against the silhouette black stamping. Love how you did the background through the stencil, so delicate and pretty.
ReplyDeleteThey look fabulous! Another technique I need to try out...
ReplyDeleteBoth are beautiful! I LOVE the silhouette flowers over the stenciled colors!
