I'm joining Simon Says Stamp's Flickr Challenge which is all about watercoloring.
Although there's no "true" watercoloring on my card, I used the Distress inks
as a watercolor medium when I inked up the butterflies. Sorta.

The new Grid Stencil was ink distressed with three colors of Distress inks
and spattered with water after removing the stencil. The sentiment is a hybrid from
Simon Says Stamp and Papertrey Ink.
A small butterfly stamp was inked with coordinating Distress inks, sprayed
with water and stamped on watercolor paper. After die cutting them,
they were adhered to the card along with some black hearts.
Coincidentally, my blogging friend Barb created a very similar card
Play along with the Flickr challenge if you have some Simon Says Stamp products
and feel like getting inky with watercoloring. Hope to see you in the Flickr gallery!

ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike...Barb's card looks so cool with this stencil and black hearts. too! I love your color combo and how you created your butterflies, Donna! I don't think I've ever used black hearts on a card, but I'm loving how it grounds the design, and how you paired your sentiments! Beautiful card, as always!

Before I go any further though: HAPPY DANCE NEWS...my stamps arrived! Thank you for all your efforts! I'll be playing with them on the weekend, so stay tuned...a card will for sure be heading your way! Okay, back to focusing on this rainbow and butterfly beauty of yours, that has me smiling from ear to ear! Absolutely gorgeous!
