Just popping in to share my card for Challenge #8 at Virginia's View--Clean and Simple.
For my card I used Altenew's origami elephant and tried Tasnim's
no line watercoloring technique. Please don't look too closely; it looks better from afar.
And if you squint your eyes.
After stamping the sentiment, I realized it's now a sympathy card. Oops!
I'll try the technique again and use a "happier" sentiment.
The card was finished off with Pretty Pink Posh sparkling clear sequins.
You have until October 18th to link up your clean and simple project
and the prize sponsor is Simon Says Stamp.
Thanks for stopping by!

Adorable card Donna! It looks fantastic, now I want to try!
ReplyDeleteLove this card, Donna!!!
ReplyDeleteLove this no line coloring look! Need to try this!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, this is gorgeous!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning. Even when I don't squint. And, I did take a closer look. Yep, still stunning. I need to check out that water color technique. And, must say that you used my very favorite sympathy card sentiment.
ReplyDeleteI think your no-line water coloring looks amazing, Donna! Fabulous card!
ReplyDeleteI'd say you've definitely nailed the technique, even without squinting. It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing, Donna!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Jo x
ReplyDeleteOh my....I am envy with your GREEN result!! It is totally unexpected and gorgeous! So glad that you join the fun over Virginia’s View Clean and Simple Challenge! PS: It looks pretty amazing from close-up, too, if you ask me :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely GORGEOUS card, Donna! Your no line coloring turned out beautifully, and I love the image you chose, too! You never cease to amaze me with your talent, Donna...WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out fantastic! Love this!
ReplyDeleteThe coloring is beautiful, Donna, and I think the elephant is perfect with the sentiment. Elephants remember, and are strong.
ReplyDeleteDespite your humble assertions Donna, you ARE the QUEEN of CAS in my opinion. This is a stunner of a card.
ReplyDeleteYou are so brave - I love this look but have yet to give it a try. Your elephant looks very cool in blues and greens. And I actually think it makes for a great sympathy card, for a younger person (which is not good to think about but happens).
ReplyDeleteOh, MY, Donna, this is GORGEOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteSquinting or staring, it still looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous...you rock, Donna!
ReplyDeletethis is stunning - love the sentiment!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, love your water coloring, Donna! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh this is a beautiful card. A CAS beauty :)
