It's Easter Monday here in NZ and today we will be heading back home later today. I managed some more crafting yesterday and another trip to the beach for a swim. This morning it's a bit cooler and cloudy so before packing up I did another card for homework on my class - Creative Colouring with Erum.
I tried out the splatter watercolour look. Didn't work out as well as I wanted as I didn't have a spray water bottle and had to just use a big brush. However I was really happy with the card I made.
I used a mixture of Woodless Watercolour pencils and the 36-pan set of watercolours. My flowers are from Nature's Blossom set and the leaves from Leaf Canopy set. I added some depth with Prismacolor pencils- a technique that Erum uses. I used the Woodless Watercolour pencils for the background. The sentiment is from a Gina K Wreath Builder set.
Yesterday I played with the Wreath Builder stencil and stamps. I had forgotten to bring my normal MISTI and only had my mini one and thought I might not be able to use it.... but managed it
The edge hung out but it worked well.
I did a few more cards yesterday but will share them over the next few days. Take care all
