What a fun technique for today’s Technique Challenge (TLC449) on Splitcoast…Faux Whitewash! I followed the instructions except instead of dye ink/waterbrush I used my water based Tombow markers.

After embossing,whitewashing and coloring w/ the markers, I added a die cut sentiment and some whitewashed sunflowers on the large layer. Some white buttons were used to fill in the empty space beside the image.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Welcome to a new challenge for Serendipity Stamps! The Serendipity Challenge this week is Watercolor!  

While I love to water color, I also love to make water color backgrounds…just free form swaths of color…then stamp on top of them. I love the random patterns of color I get and how they look with the images on top. A lot of times when I’m making water color backgrounds, I’ll make an extra, or two, and stash them away. This is one of those extras. I don’t even remember when I did it. It’s basically just large bands in different colors. After I decided where I wanted the image and stamped it, and added some highlights with a white gel pen.

The frame was die cut with a large oval then I used a Japanese screw punch with the smallest bit I have to punch the holes all around the edge. The greeting was stamped underneath to finish my 4.25 x 5.50 card.

Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to check out all of the Watercolored Wonders from the Serendipity Design Team!

What a fun site for today’s Inspiration Challenge (IC407) on Splitcoast! I needed one more card for a bridal shower and I liked the white & cream of the linens in THIS bedroom. I also totally cased This elegant card of Cathleen’s. Just loved it when I saw it!

After stamping the bodice image on white, I embossed it w/ some white sparkly powder then stamped the greeting in black. The umbrella was die cut out of some ivory shimmer card stock and I also used it for the layer behind. Added a little ivory bow to complete my 4.25 x 5.50 card.
