Here is my project, using Hello Snowman
For my CAS card, I created a water colored background using Distress inks.
I used a small acrylic block and applied my colors onto it, spritzed a few times and then pressed onto my watercolor paper. Once dried, I trimmed and applied some glittered stickles using a star background stencil. (Hard to tell in the picture)
For my over the top card, I added lots of layers.
I had to dust off some of my beloved dies for this project.
Paper: BoBunny Powder Mountain
Medium: Copic
Other: Loose Glitter and Stickles
Vellum
Now head over to Cammy's blog and see what she has created.
Thanks for hopping with us today.
The hop will end on Monday, November 9th at 6 am EST. Winners will be posted on the From the Heart Stamps Blog on Wednesday, November 11th.

Kathy... I was not happy with my water colored background either until I put my card together. Watercolor does not have to be perfect to be perfect... You should try it and try die cutting flowers, snowflakes...I am sue it will be beautiful.
DeleteSo different but equally beautiful. Wonderful blues.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are really fun! I like the water color background of the first. Thanks for the inspiration!
