Camp Create 2017 Day 2 - Remarkable Resist

I'm back for day 2 of Camp Create 2017 at My Favorite Things.  The activity for day 2 is to create a card using a watercolor resist technique.

 

I embossed the Whimsical Waves background stamp on a piece of watercolors with white embossing powder.  Then I added Peerless watercolors in Robin's Egg Blue, Forget-Me-Not Blue and Turquoise.  I'm listing the colors so that I can come back to this post to remind myself what they were.  I'll definitely be recreating that combination for more cards!

 

 Here is the background piece that I created before I used it on my card.  I have to say that I am so in love with this piece of paper that I didn't want to cut it and put it on the card!  If a certain friend reads this she will laugh out loud.  She makes fun of me because I have a piece of ribbon that I dyed years ago but refuse to cut because it turned out so beautifully!

 

 

 

However, unlike the ribbon I did trim this piece and create the card below.  I added images from the MFT Mermazing stamp set that I colored with copic markers.  The banner is from the Blueprints #28 die-namics set.

 

 

 

I'm really happy with how this card turned out and I've earned my second badge!

 

MFT Card Challenges Weekly Sketch #336

Hi! I'm here with my entry for the weekly sketch challenge at the MFT Card Challenges blog.

 

I've kept my card sweet and simple this week.

 

 

This card turned out to be a test of what inks do and don't work well with these stamps and the watercolor paper that I cut them from!  The flowers are from the Mini Modern Blooms stamp/die-namics set.  They were stamped with several different types of inks on watercolor paper.  The notched banner was cut from the MFT Sweet Celebration paper pad.  The sentiment banner is from Blueprints Die-namics #28 and I stamped a sentiment from the Springtime Blooms stamp set.

 

Thanks for stopping by!



 

MFT Card Challenges Weekly Sketch #335

Hi! I'm back again with my take on this week's sketch challenge from the MFT Card Challenges blog.  Below is the sketch for this week.


Here is my interpretation...

 

 

I had a difficult time with this one as I started a completely different card and then scrapped it.  I'm sure I was overthinking it!

 

The ink blended background was done with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Salty Ocean and Mermaid Lagoon.  The die-cut images were watercolored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens.  A complete list of supplies from My Favorite Things is shown below.
