Awash With Watercolour

Catching up on some homework for Online Card Class Day 1: watercolour backgrounds.  I embossed Penny Black Dots In Space and then used a selection of Distress Inks for the background.  The sentiment is from the new Sentiment Builders: Happy by STAMPlorations.


****************


For this next card I used an acrylic block.  Again, the sentiment is from STAMPlorations.


I'm entering this one into City Crafter Citrus challenge - use orange, lemon and lime.

Back with more tomorrow!

  2. Nice coloration for the background captures the sentiment in your first card. Great mix of the citrus colors in the second card.
