Hi All,

For this challenge we want to see 'Clean and Simple' cards using some kind of blending.
Here is what I created:

For this challenge we want to see 'Clean and Simple' cards using some kind of blending.
Here is what I created:
I got this leaf dies as a pressie for the very lovely and talented Loll-thanks Loll. I have seen her use dies like this over panels of blended inks and brushos and decided to give it a go myself. I blended together some water colour paints and used 'wet on wet' water colouring to mix the colours together. I sprayed the oval panel with gold glitter but it is hard to see this in the photo. Finally I popped up the oval panel to add some dimension. The sentiment is from our sponsors for this challenge our Happy Little Stampers and the winner will get $20 Gift voucher for their fabulous store.
Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very talented Michelle. Her creativity is amazing. Take a look at her blog here and you will see for yourself!
Have fun!
Loving how that delicate bloom die looks showcased against your window's blended background. Great contrast of crisp and blurry.

ReplyDeleteI'm just not getting round to anyone's blogs at the moment Sandie - glad I popped over today though...this one's a beauty. Love those soft blended colours, especially with the buttery yellow background!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful and soft colors and what a very elegant card!
ReplyDeleteLovely, Sandie! Hope all is well. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! I love the die cuts over the background. It gives such dimension.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous watercolour blending for your oval, Sandie. Love the colours and looks so beautiful with the die-cut leafy sprig. Thanks for the shout out! Take care. xx
ReplyDeleteI would probably toss the frame, or mount the oval and not the frame, out of habit, but I really like the effect of the mounted frame. I think it's what give this CAS card an edge. It's really classy!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully executed, Sandie. Hope you are well. Thinking of you.

Beautiful card, Sandie! I think watercolour paper texture adds a special touch to your card, die cut looks even more delicate against it. - Sweet Kobylkin
