Good Morning Crafty Chickies!
It's Thursday!
You know what that means ---
a new challenge at
Lori is our hostess today
and her theme is ---
This is one of my very favorite mediums and techniques I like to use on my cards. It's so forgiving and no two creations are ever the same.
STAMPS: Sentiment - Sending Happy Thoughts (Simon Says)
PAPER: Water color paper; Raspberry cardstock; white cardstock.
INK: Black Onyx (Versafine); Picked Raspberry & Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink (Tim Holtz).
EXTRAS: Poststamp die (Simon Says); Heart swoosh die (Poppy Stamps); Small heart/arrow (Technique Tuesday).
I used distressed ink with some bleach water to make my watercolor background. I cut the heart swoosh into the background paper and then cut it again out of white cardstock and inlaid it between the cut layers. The small heart is a different die adhered to the pink heart. I tried to keep the card clean and a little graphic to showcase the watercolor background.

This is a beautiful watercolor background, Nance! Love those colors! And the inlaid die is perfect to not detract from the background! It's amazing how the 2 heart dies work together!
This is soooo pretty, Nance!! These colors are so bright and cheery together! The inlaid swoosh die is so cool - I might have to look into that one! Awesome card xoxoox
