My week away seems to have jump started my mojo again. YAY! This card is for three challenges, one of which is new to me.
I am entering Just add Ink (Sketch), CAS Watercolor (blue), and Challenge Up Your Life (tic tac toe). I love it when one card can be made to fit several challenges. I'm sending this one to my crafty friend - Peggy who recently moved from Maryland to Maine. I do miss our get-togethers.
I started with the sketch, then chose the first column on the tic tac toe board which also satisfied the third challenge for something blue.
Adding score marks horizontally across the card base provided the start for the card; next - white heat embossing the Ellen Hutson mondo gebera daisy, coloring it with a water color marker and water brush, die cutting it (san stem with the help of some fussy cutting), mounting it on the prepared card base and lastly adding the sentiment from CTMH using my mini misti.
Your flower is AMAZING, Cat! I love how it pops off your gorgeous white, scored background. The shades are so vibrant. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour!
