I'm also adding my card to Kylie Bertucci's Monthly International Blog Highlights. If you like my card I'd love for you to Vote for it once the Gallery goes live. Please click the Gallery image after 4 pm today February 6th, 2023. Simply vote by clicking the heart in the top right corner of my card. If my card is a Top Ten Winner I'll join the Blog Hop at the end of the month. Thanks so much for your support! :)
I'm trying a - 'new to me' technique called 'No Line Watercolouring' - it really is fun! I think I'll do a quick YouTube video this week with some of the *Trix* I've learned. Please click here to subscribe to my YouTube Channel and receive a notification of when the video is uploaded this week. *** Video is done! Click here to watch on YouTube :)
*** The Trix ***
* Use a stamp made for colouring - Happiness Abounds Stamp Set, #159238 has line art flowers and leaves, perfect for watercolouring. & Use Shimmery White cardstock, #101910 to help the colours blend and move.
* Play & Practise - I tried a variety of colour combo's as you'll see in my video but for this card I settled on Polished Pink & Sweet Sorbet. Then repeat the colours on the card base with a Polished Pink die cut layer using the Blossoming Happiness Dies, #158823 *Or save 10% and purchase the Stamp Set & Dies in Bundle called Happiness Abounds Bundle, #158824
