Today's card is a reminder for the CAS Mix Up Challenge to do Water colouring as the main element and the theme is "Beach". For my card I did a watercolour wash for the background with reinkers and then stamped on top. The images were all water coloured, fussy cut and mounted on dimensionals. I applied some Multi Mat Medium and then sprinkled with White and Clear E/Powder on the water and heated it with my Heat Gun which makes it bubble up and look like foam. I finished off with some Clear and Gold Wink of Stella, a Mini Pearl and the Stamped Sentiment.

Love these, your first card is a stunner, I love the texture you have created on the sea and sand and what a lovely lady sunning herself on her towel. Your second card is perfect in it's simplicity xx
ReplyDeleteSo cool, the bubbly waves add so much interest. ...But that lady must truly be a happy camper. Love the bright fun colours and the fussy cutting was all well worth it. Having the strip scene makes this beautifully CAS. Love it. xx
ReplyDeleteFab card Susan - must try the foaming effect with the white and Clear EP - looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful beach scene, Sue! Love all these fun elements and the fantastic foam on the water! So realistic looking and all beautifully colored and fun!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun Sue! LOVE your watercoloured beach background with the sand and sea. Did not know that using multi-medium with embossing powder and heating made it bubble. Great to know! Your sunbather looks very relaxed Awesome card! xx
