Vitamin Sea

Hello -

It is another afternoon in the crafty space while catching up around the house.
 

I am playing along with CAS Mix Up Challenge.  I have a cute sentiment from Newton's Nook and I watercolored a beachy scene over it after having heat embossed it in white.  I used distress markers for my colors Antique Linnen, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch.  I used them both the dry watercolor paper, and on the wet paper using a wet brush to move the color around to give some depth and texture to the card front.



Thanks for stopping by!

What an amazing stamp, it looks perfect in white against your wonderful watercoloured sea. I really like how you have blended the sea and the sand, they look so realistic. Thanks for finding the time to join us at CAS mix up this month xx
