Hello Friends!!! I am so excited to be back this month and we have a guest joining us...Tami White! December was quite hectic and I was unable to pre-order any of the new goodies from the Occasions catalog so I had to skip January's hop.
I was kinda stumped as to what I was going to do for the theme "Love". I didn't order the popular Sealed with Love Bundle {SUPER CUTE bundle by the way}. I have a couple sets that have love in them but I really wanted to do a watercolor card. I always have these "visions" in my head BUT most of the time my visions never turn out the way I want them to....like this one. I would have liked the colors to blend a little better. Out of the ones I did I liked this one the best.

I used Shimmery white cardstock {which I LOVE} and my Aqua painters to create the background. I initially wanted more layers but it was covering up the background that I wanted to show off. I love adding little nips of ribbon and twine.
Let's see what Jodi has made today!
Jessica, I struggle with Valentine's themes too because I don't own very many sets, but I like the background on this and how you showed you can turn anything into a love theme! Hugs, Crystal
ReplyDeleteLove the simplistic design of your card! Nice and clean!

ReplyDeleteI love the way your watercolored background turned out! When my visions don't turn out, they are normally not usable at all. lol I really like your card. 😉
