AEIHeartU Challenge 28

Hello, and welcome!

I am back to share the latest Avery Elle challenge with you! This month is to create a card using a non-white card base! I am hopelessly addicted to white, so this was good for me to get out of the usual. 



I decided to do a bit of watercoloring with the Peonies stamp set, and those big bold blooms. I masked off the vase, along with the flowers and leaves onto a piece of Tim Holtz Watercolor paper, and began adding color with Ranger Distress Inks. Once the coloring was finished, I allowed the image to dry, and stamped the sentiment, before trimming it out.


I took another piece of watercolor paper, and created a yellow wash from dark to light, allowing it to dry before adhering it to a teal card base. To finish it off, I added some clear sequins! 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
