Be Yourself Watercolor Card



Hi everyone! Watercoloring techniques are so in right now. I really enjoy creating watercolors with paints and brushes but sometimes the easiest way is to just smoosh all of the colors together for fabulous results! 


I love bright colors and distress inks are a great way to get the watercolor feel with more vibrant tones. I mixed  pinks and yellows together for this card and then added in dimension with  heavier inked polka dots and texture with die cut arrows and stars. The must-have sparkle comes from scattered black gems and a bit of metallic thread along the edge.  I added in a matching black sentiment and  then stacked all of my pieces asymmetrically.


The inside features more asymmetric papers along with a big sentiment that is so sweet. A few more watercolored stars and gems add the final touch!

I am entering this card into the Simon Says Monday Challenge:Wonderful Watercolor!

Supplies Used:
DMC metallic thread
