WWC239 - Helen's Masculine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Hello there and welcome!  This week's challenge is all about cards for the men in our life and Helen is our hostess.

I wanted to do a Rainbow masculine card, so I got out my Kuretake watercolors and painted a Rainbow on watercolor paper.  I then used the Sunny Studio Frilly Frames Stripes die to cut the card cover.  The sentiment, which I've been using a lot, is Rainbow Script from Hello Bluebird.    This is a happy card that was fun but pretty quick to make.

Last week, I did a feminine card using Frilly frames.

I am entering this card in:
Dar and Diane Focus on the Sentiment Challenge

Die Cuttin Divas Just Because Challenge

Thanks for joining us this week at Watercooler Wednesday!

WWC238 - Tristan's "All About Occasions" Challenge

Hello and welcome!  This week it is all about occasions at Watercooler Wednesday and I chose to make a birthday card.  Tristan is our hostess this week.  Pop by the Watercooler Wednesday Challege website for more details and to link your creation.

I bought a new die, Sunny Studio Frilly Frame Stripe, so I wanted to incorporate it into my card design.  I started by making a background with my Kuretake watercolors and then added the overlay to my background. I stamped, Copic colored and die cut the floral images.  I wanted the sentiment to match so I inked a piece of cardstock with a coordinating Copic marker.  Learning lesson....Let the ink fully dry before attempting to die cut. The first sentiment stuck to the die and came out in 100 tiny pieces.

Supplies:

Sunny Studio Frilly Frames Stripes die

WPlus9 Doodle Buds stamps and dies

SSS Happy Birthday die

Kuretake Watercolors

Distress Watercolor Paper

Neenah cardstock

Copic markers

The Flower Challenge - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by!

WWC212 - Tristan's "All About Occasions" Challenge

It's time for Tristan's "All About Occasions Challenge" at Watercooler Wednesday.  Stop by and see what the designers have created. We would love to see your card so please be sure to link up this week.

I have more fun with this Polkadoodles "Hanging Out" stamp set.  I made a baby shower card and this is a card I made for a cousin's birthday.

I embossed the image on Ranger Distress Watercoler Paper and then started painting away with my new Kuretake watercolors.  I embossed a sentiment and assembled onto an A2 card.

I am entering this card in Simon Says Stamp "Feminine/Girly" Challenge.  The card is for my female
cousin.

I am also entering the card in Simon Says Stamp Wednesday "Whatever the Weather" Challenge.  It is spring and I thought this darling card is perfect for the season.

I really enjoyed creating this card and I am so pleased that you stopped by.
