Hello!
Today i'm joining the other ladies on the Art Impressions Design Team for the second week of the
AI Red, White, Blue Challenge! You have a till Wednesday to play along and i hope you do!!
For my card i started with my background first. I used distress ink and a small clear acetate sheet to pick up the color and add it to a panel of water color paper. I have really been in the watercolor background mood and this was my first attempt, i have since gotten better in cards i have already shared on my blog. To add more interest the watercolor i added some water to the semi dry ink, which bled the ink out here and there.
Next i stamped the Art Impressions
Eunice on some watercolor paper. I used distress markers to color her, then fussy cut her out. Then i die cut a stitched oval from some white card stock. I added Eunice with foam dots and added some ground at her feet.
I added the oval to my watercolored card with foam tape and then stamped the
You're How Old?! sentiment in the bottom right corner. Last i added three white enamel dots.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you will stop by and play along with us for the Red, White, Blue Challenge!

This does NOT look like a first attempt at watercolouring!! I love how the background turned out, and the little enamel dots are my favourite embellishment right now :o)
