Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a watercolor slimline card featuring
I fell in love with is Octolady. She is just so interesting.
I wanted an underwater scene without a lot of extra items distracting for the Octolady.
I stamped the image onto some Strathmoore Bristol Smooth cardstock with
Ranger Embossing Powder: Super Fine Clear. I heat set the image.
Next, I used my Arteza Real Brush Watercolor Markers to apply a base coat to the
AALL + Create Stamp: Octolady. Then, I used my Artist Loft: Metallic Watercolor paints and applied a topcoat. Next, I filled in the background of the panel with blue watercolor paint. I did a few splatters with the metallic paint and Imagine Crafts: Sheer Shimmer Spritz: Frost.
Then, I trimmed the panel down and matted it with a piece of medium blue cardstock followed by another mat of cardstock in purple. I adhered the panels to the slimline card base. I stamped the sentiment onto some of the purple cardstock and adhered it to the top right-hand corner. For a finishing touch, I adhered some sequins in opalescent under the sentiment and the bottom left-hand corner.
