Hello there Crafty Friends! This month at CAS Mix Up we have a Water-colour themed challenge. Leslie is our host and the prompt is 'Autumn Colours'. That should give you plenty of scope. Please be sure to make water-colouring the main element of your card and keep your designs Clean and Simple.
I made this card way back in April, when it was Autumn in Australia.
I stamped the leaves randomly along the edge of the white panel using Distress Oxide Ink and Zig Markers and lots of spritzing. When dry, I used watered down gold ink along the edges of the leaves and also splattered the card front.
Next I stamped the sentiment and adhered to the kraft card base.
Stamps: Stampers Anonymous Nature's Wonder; Papertrey Ink Don't Forget to Write
We are so lucky to have the hugely talented Ros (Mikey's Mom) as our Guest Designer this month and you can see her card and more inspiration at our blog.
I'm also sharing my card at the following challenges:-
