Hi Everyone
Happy Friday ahead of another weekend.
Is anyone else having difficulty working out what day it is? All day I have been thinking today is Saturday!!!
Anyway .. .. for the first time ever I have managed to play along with all four of the CAS Challenges this month .. .. with the last one being the CAS Watercolour Card Challenge where the theme this month is "Spring Flowers".
Of course I saved the most challenging until last LOL!! Watercolour!
I am by no means experienced with watercolours of any description .. .. but that doesn't stop me trying and playing over and over again.
So here we go with today's watercolour card created by painting with watered down Distress Ink.
The very first time a whole card has been created by me using just watercolours.

This used:
Image: A magazine covergift (as used earlier this week with ProMarkers)
Sentiment: Very old from Docrafts
Distress Inks: Tumbled Glass, Dried Marigold, Bundled Sage, Squeezed Lemon and Shaded Lilac
Gold Embossing Powder
My Trusty Sewing Machine
and that is my watercolour challenge completed.
I often create cards that simply say things like, Just for You, Thank You, Thinking of You or with this Love You stamp. That then gives me the opportunity to use them for lots of occasions by simply adding an appropriate insert.

Enjoy your weekend everyone as much as you can and please stay safe.

ReplyDeleteWow, it's beautiful, your watercolour card ! And yes, I'm also confused with the days, often think it's Sunday, because it's so quiet outside... :)) But I love to hear the birds in the garden ! Hugs, Enny
