It was Card Design Class last night, I always try to bring a variety of techniques and styles to the projects I teach the ladies.
I have had this Faux Watercolouring technique on my mind for weeks and have finally managed to get it onto card, using a Penny Black®, Inc. stamp.
I have used the Decorative Labels Eight Spellbinders® Decorative Elements Nestabilities® for the card base, the image is stamped directly onto it using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Inks in Bamboo Leaves, Lulu Lavender and Lilac Posies.
The stamped were inked using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Sponge Daubers™ then the paper was spritzed with water before stamping, giving a watercolour effect.
The sentiment is from the JustRite Stampers Large Fancy Sentiment stamp sets and the Pearls from Want2Scrap©.
This card is for the following challenges:
Charisma Cardz - Pink and Green
MilkCoffee Challenge - Summer fun
Crafting By Designs - Favorite season - Summer
Lady Anne's Stamp Challenge - anything goes
Deep Ocean Challenge - Welcome Summer
Loves Rubber Stamps - Summer Theme
Paper Playtime - Anything Goes
