I don't know about you, but I love challenges where I can do anything. It was my mother's birthday and I made this card for her. I think it's perfect for this challenge because she taught me that I really could do anything.
I used an easy watercolor technique using our Simple Blooms set, water soluble markers and a mister. I love to water color, but I by the time I pull out the paints, paper, water cup towels, etc. I lose interest.
You know the saying, "Business in the front. Party in the back"? Except this time, the party is in the middle.
This card opens up to reveal a Card in the Box Cutable. I just love the way it turned out. So I did a couple of videos showing you how I created this card.This week is Part One, where I show you the watercolor technique. And, next week, I'll post Part Two, where we make the inside pop with a Card in the Box Cutable
Now let's see how The Cat Pack took on this challenge.
Kelli used the What's Mew set on this colorful card. Don't you love the wrapped frame?
Wendy's blue on blue card is high adventure using Flying By.
Christine's use of patterns and colors is just perfection on this card using Commemorating You and matching Stamp Trio CutUps.
Nancy used the Simple Blooms set on this clean and simple card.
Lori uses dramatic colors on this card using the Presto! set.
Lisa creates the perfect card for Summer using the Life's a Beach set
How about this pretty card by Noelle using the Simple Blooms stamp set and the Framed Up 2 CutUps. Just so soft and pretty.
