This will be a quick post for I simply used some water coloring from my stash which happen to be the perfect colors! Don't you love when you can use something on your desk and create a card? I am not sure what brand of watercolors I used, but I know I did use table salt on the water coloring when just drying. You can see the star bursts in the pictures created with the salt.
I used my Jillian Vance Wildflower Die Set to cut out the images and I used every last little bit of this paper. I love blues and greens together:
This was my grand-daughter's 25th birthday card. She is a blue lover so I thought she'd enjoy it and she did! The links are below if you are interested in any of the products I used today. Thanks for stopping by!
Anita, thanks so much for coming to visit! These are lovely. I see so many water colorists and painters out there and it sure makes me want to take on another hobby! I love the starbursts that the salt makes. Good luck on the giveaway - I can't wait to hear who wins. I like the giveaway tote from MC's the best!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jacqueline! I know the temptation to take on another hobby, but there are so many avenues in card making, mixed media, watercoloring, etc. I’ve got all I can handle right now. The blogs for the MC tote were all so much fun! Thanks for commenting ❤️
