Update: I was chosen as a winner!!!
Here's the challenge colors:
You all know how much I love watercolor, but I wanted to add more texture and dimension to my card, so I took the small and large leaf dies from the Stylish Stems framlits dies and die cut a bunch from watercolor paper. I adhered them in a fun, sort of "falling" pattern to my watercolor paper layer. I then, took my Mint Macaron ink pad, squeezed some ink from the pad into the well of the ink pad lid and used my aqua painter to add some color. I also added some Cucumber Crush to accent the leaves with a bit more vibrant areas of color. After the watercolor was dry, I added flicks of Whisper White craft ink with my aqua painter.
After it dried, I added a flower from the Special Reason stamp set in Watermelon Wonder, along with some layered leaves in Cucumber Crush cardstock. Lastly, I added some Wink of Stella for some sparkle and a few pearls to finish it off. I tried to capture the sparkle in the final photos.

ReplyDeleteThat's so kind of you, Cheryll! I think after staring at it for so long, while creating it, it begins to look less and less appealing so it's so nice to hear that you like it. 😊
