Welcome to our monthly Casually Crafting Blog Hop and my No Line Watercolour Father’s Day Card
Casually Crafting Design Team Blog Hop
The Casually Crafting Design Team is a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world, gathered together to share our passion for creativity with you. Our focus is to bring you inspiration featuring projects that are easy to create while still packing a powerful creative punch. The projects are made with a few products, making them ideally suited to a beginner or casual crafter. From time-to-time, we may also include a project that is stepped-up for the added wow-factor
We will be sharing our ideas on the 3rd Saturday of each month and you can hop around the group and gather loads of inspiration. So grab yourself a cup of your favourite beverage, sit back & enjoy the hop!
Theme Challenge
This month we have a theme challenge – For the Boys
With Father’s Day coming up next month I thought it would be fun to do a little water colouring
Beside Me
Today I am using the wonderful Beside Me Stamp set
Its one of those stamp sets that are perfect for colouring no matter what medium you choose!
Watercolour Father’s Day Card
I love the fact that we have so many different ways to colour stamped images.
This card layout just cried out to be water coloured
I am no artist, but I am rather pleased with how it has come out
The images are second stamped in Crumb cake onto Fluid 100 water colour paper so the finished image has no visible stamped lines
The sentiments are stamped in Night of Navy
Once the images are dry use the side of some scissors to distress the edges of the paper
To accentuate the vintage look, use a sponge dauber to add some Early Espresso Ink around the edges.
Attach to a Pecan Pie card base using Multipurpose Glue
Voila!
I had great fun making this card. So, please do leave me a comment, letting me know what you think.
If you would like to know more about any of my projects please do get in contact and I would be happy to help you
So now it’s time to hop around the rest of the wonderful demonstrators blogs to see some more inspiration
