Admittedly, I am not the best at water-coloring, but I have been practicing. What better way then to color 17 stamped images in a row? :) I used my ink pads and blender pens to color the images, then added Crystal Effects to the vase and the centers of the flowers. Then I sprinkled some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter on the centers of the flowers for some sparkle. I distressed the edges with the Color Spritzer Tool and some sponged ink, too.
Here are the swaps all ready to be boxed up and shipped off:
I got my inspiration for these cards from a few different challenges (check them out for some great ideas): - Craft Us Crazy - Use a favorite embellishment and/or something new (I used glitter and pearls for the embellishments and my new stamp set and new satin ribbon for something new! )
- 4 Crafty Chicks - Spring-inspired cards
- Creative Card Crew - Flower-themed project
- Friday Mashup - used the sketch from a few weeks ago, because I really like it! :)
