Hope You Have A Beautiful Day--CMCC No 85

August 22, 2015

 Today I am playing along with the wonderful Design Team at Colour Me...!  I adore the color combination for their challenge and knew what I wanted to create.  

My base card is white card stock (5 1/2 X 4 1/4).  The next layer is cut with a stitched rectangle die.  I added Zig Clean Marker to the top portion and squirted it with water to create my background.  After it dried, I added the sentiment from the WPlus9 Doodle Buds stamp set with black Versa Fine ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.   I watered down some black ombre ink and flicked a few ink splatters on the background to bring in more gray.  Fun foam was added to the back of the watercolor panel to make it have dimension off the base card.


The flowers were stamped with Momento Black ink on water color paper.  I colored them with Zig Clean Brush Markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies.  I know gray leaves may seem odd, but they worked with the palette.  


Thank you for stopping by my blog today!  I love to hear from you so, please leave a comment.  

 Wishing you a beautiful day!  

 HUGS!
Claire
