DAY 6~EXPLORING WATERCOLOR MEDIUMS

Hi everyone! Today's card is created using black cardstock, metallic watercolor paint, and embossing.

So sad that this is the last day for this class. I had a lot of fun learning some new techniques and honing others.This is the first time I've watercolored on black cardstock and I have to say it was so much fun!


I wasn't sure at first with the image I chose. I was having some issues with the paint just sitting on top of the embossed areas but I soaked up some of the extra and it started to fill in. 


I originally was going to do one flower and the sprig but when I started to put the card together it just didn't look full enough. I needed more lol. So I stamped to more flowers and got coloring. 


I chose to cut the sprig apart and adhere it behind the floral images. I like how this looks so much better. 


I added some Xmas red stickles to give a bit of shine and bling. At first I wasn't to sure they were going to stand out but once they dried they added just the touch of shine I was looking for.
