Hello and welcome! This week is our always popular "feminine" challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. Kath is our hostess.
I made this card for my sister's birthday. I heat embossed, watercolored then die-cut this beautiful floral image from Altenew. I used watercolor paper for the painted panel and the card base as I liked the continuity of texture across the card. I am not sure you can tell in the photograph, but I really like the textured look in person. I also went with a brown sentiment for a more natural look.
Supplies:
Altenew Weekend Doodles stamp and die
Altenew Espresso Crisp die ink
Watercolor paper
White Embossing Powder
Kuretake watercolors
I am pleased with the card and look forward to popping it in the mail to my sister.
I am entering this card in:
