Online Card Classes watercolor background card

Monday, May 5, 2014

                                             

My second card today was made using the distress ink background technique.  I really got my paper really wet so had to wait a while for it to dry.  I embossed with Silver Filigree onto 40 lb Bazzill vellum using a 7 Gypsies stamp.  Attached the vellum with Kool Tac and then the whole panel onto Bazzill shimmer cardstock and added some iridescent sequins.   ( I photographed the card on its side if it looks a little hanging in space ish)

I forgot to mention that I spritzed the paint with Perfect Pearls.

    1. Hi Karen, I put them away before writing them down but I believe I started with Salty Ocean, then Peacock Feathers, Dusty Concord and Picked raspberry.
