Hello everyone :). I've been playing around with watercolor a LOT - since before and after taking the Online Card Class Watercolor for Cardmakers (you can still sign up for it and take it at your own pace - you get unlimited lifetime access once you've purchased your class) - it's fun!
I have a set of watercolors in my nail art stash that I've had for a really long time and never used as I decided I didn't want to get into doing that sort of art for clients enhancements or my own - so I took the set to use for cards and playing around with. I don't have a source for them right now but I've linked to a couple of sets in the supplies that are similar.
First time ever making a 4-Bar sized card - 3.5 by 4 7/8". It's different and I like it :)
I was stumped at first on how to use this Magenta Small Deer Family stamp as it's a lot smaller than I thought it would be - and would get lost on a A2 sized card IMO. I was playing around with the watercolor and decided to make a "scene" for the deer and put it on a smaller card and this was the end result:
I love that every time you do this technique it looks different:
My original "just playing around" piece is on the left with the one for today on the right.
To see how I made this card check out the video below:
