The week is speeding by over here, but I had a moment the other day to make a fun watercolor card for Avery Elle's AEIHeartU Challenge. It's no secret, I adore watercolor, any way you can, gelatos, Pencils, Markers, ink pads!
To get started, I took the dark green, mint and aqua Studio Calico ink pads, and rubbed a bit onto my craft mat, and spritzed each with water. I then applied it to my wet watercolor paper panel, dried it with my heat tool, and reinked it multiple times.
I then took the adorable Happy Camper set, and created my scene. I started with the mountains, and added the trees. I then stamped the canoe, in what looks like a lake. I stamped my sentiment onto a banner, and adhered it with foam.
Sequins finished it off, and I have to say, I think I like it! Thanks so much for stopping by!
