Hi everyone. This week is the 3rd birthday at ATS&M and they are celebrating in style with a CAS challenge (my favourite!). :) I just HAD to play along! :)
I bought this sweet die yesterday (along with a few other goodies) from my local scrapbooking store. I die-cut with watercolour paper and then used a water brush and some distress inks to colour.
I finished off by adding a simple stamped banner at the bottom. Easy, peasy card!
Father's Day is just a few days away, and the family will be celebrating by getting together for a pot luck lunch on Sunday. I know hubby will be smiling the whole day. I hope you all have a wonderful and fun weekend. :)
Stamps: Happy (Simon Says)
Ink: Black (Memento); Mowed Lawn, Ripe Persimmon, Fired Brick (Tim Holtz)
Accessories & Tools: Row of Poppies die (Memory Box), water brush
Challenges:
Of course, I love poppies in any form but, wow, Lolly, I really love the simplicity of this design! Your watercoloring makes them so gorgeous and dimensional!! Hugs, Dolly
ReplyDeleteGorgeous poppies, Loll! I love how you've colored them and how they pop off all that white space! Have a wonderful weekend!
