AAA Card Challenge #14


This week over at the AAA Card Challenge is Play.  Play with water colors!

I used water color paper, heavily spritzed with water, and painted water colors on it.  Once dry, I dropped blobs of water to make water spots.  Then, once that was dry, I stamped a multiple collection of STAMPlorations word stamps from Happy, Thank You and Celebrate.  I used a Fiskars Stamp Press to lay my stamps on first, and then stamped them.  For my background panel, I used Inspired By Stamping Background Basics Lines.

I hope you join in and play with water colors, using any technique you want, pop on over to AAA Card Challenge, and upload your card!  We can't wait to see what you create!


Thanks for stopping by~

Love your watercolour background which showcases the sentiment stamps so well. I'm always drawn to cards with words!

Your water color background is spectacular. It really stands out against the black and white. Your word collage is a wonderful focal point.
