I bought some watercolour card blanks recently with the idea that I could do watercolour stamping straight on the card base. I am posting my simple card for the
Craft Barn weekly challenge (CAS), the
Designs by Ryn customer creations challenge and the
SimonSaysStamp Wednesday challenge (Anything goes).
Originally I was trying to make a card for a shrink plastic moth that I made with Ryns Moonwing stamps... the colours ended up being misfit, so I'm saving the shrink plastic for later :) I have stamped the solid hibiscus using Distress inks and a mist of water. I placed it so that it extends to the back of the card.
I made a mask and used a piece of scrap rubber to add some green on the background. The scrap rubber attaches to the TacknPeel block I use for unmounted stamps. I added Bundled Sage with an ink blender and spritzed with water before stamping. I added the sentiment with Aged Mahogany.
Simply beautiful. So glad to have found you at Simon Says Stamp blog.

I'm so glad to see you reusing your scrap rubber. It can be used for so many textural projects! Nice simple clean card! I will announce the winner of last month's challenge shortly. Having some technical issues with my challenge provider. Thanks for participating!
VastaaPoistaSo simple and I like the way it trails round the back of the card!
VastaaPoistaThank you for joining in The Craft Barn Challenge.
