WWC177 – Charlotte’s Feminine “Anything Goes” Challenge

 

P1070522Welcome back for another Challenge over at Watercooler Wednesday.  This week Charlotte is hosting or  Feminine “Anything Goes” Challenge.

Image may contain: one or more people and textFor my card this week, I decided to go back to watercolouring flowers and play with Altnew ‘Recollections’ stamp set.  The frame is made by stamping the main image, masking the long side sections, and then stamping the bottom section of the second image.  The stamping used Memento London Fog ink and was watercoloured using Distress Inks.

A small amount of Wink of Stella and white  pen was used to add some finishing touches.

The sentiment is from Altnew ‘Wishing You’ set, stamped in Brilliance Lightning Black ink.

I was really pleased with the very soft look of the panel.

Don’t forget to visit our blog for more inspiration.  I hope to see your creations this month.

Thanks so much for visiting and for your wonderful comments!

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
