CAS Watercolour April 2017

Hello friends.  Playing along with this months challenge over at CAS Watercolour, where pink and green is the colour theme.


I've been wanting to ink up my Altenew Best Mom set for awhile now, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity!


I started by embossing the image in copper, and then using my Aqua Painter brush, I water colored the leaves with Pear Pizzazz and the flowers with Sweet Sugarplum.  Once it was dry I used the inner most die from PTI's Mix & Mat: Flourish set to die cut the dotted rectangle, and then trimmed around it and matted it with a piece of Pear Pizzazz cs.  I layered that to a white card base and added a fishtail banner with PTI's Keep It Simple: Praying For You

I watercoloured, embossed, and die cut on this card, and kept it CAS!  There's is still time to play in this challenge, and LOTS of beautiful inspiration to get you started.  Check it all out right HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!
