AAA Card Challenge #18 - Water Color


This week it's all about water coloring again.  We just love the response we are getting with this type of challenge!


I followed the Fab Friday #49 Sketch.

I used a set of stamps I bought on line and I have no idea who made them! [Any suggestions?]  I cut out a label panel, inked a stencil with distress ink, and spritzed it with water.  Subtle water coloring this week for me.  There are so many ways to use water coloring.  

We sure hope you play along over at AAA Card Challenge #18.


Thanks for stopping by~

Forgot to tell you that the colors remind me of high school. They were the school colors.

Hey Vicki --

In response to the question you left over on Laura Bassen's blog about the tiny frame in her amazing "Feminine card" -- That thin extra piece is actually just how that particular die cuts --- it's awesome and when I bought it I didn't' even know it had that feature until the first time I used it! :)

ENJOY and Happy Crafting!!

The twine bow looks lovely and of cause I like the vellum strips (I just LOVEEEEEEE working with vellum!!!). The two yellow enamel dots round everything off perfectly!!! Great card!!

Vibrant and lovely! I'm still having water-colour 'issues', but now that Twinkling H2Os have joined my stash, I'm leaning towards maybe, just maybe, liking the technique a teensy bit more...
