…WaTeR CoLoR MaKE it MoJo MoNDaY...






Today I combined the MaKE it MonDaY technique over on the PaPeRTreY blog


...with the MoJo MoNDaY sketch...

I might have also been thinking about the PaPeRTReY BLoG hop for tomorrow :)


…since my card is awfully SPrinGY! :)
Here you can see the MoJO MoNDaY sketch clearly...


…and here's a better view of my watercoloring from the with embossed resist from the MaKe it MoNDaY technique...



I rarely do anything messy or artsy on my cards…but I LoVED this technique…easy, fun, pretty, and I had everything I needed to do it!



I stamped the butterfly, cut him out, glittered his wings and popped them up to add some dimension


Even though I took the pictures outside…my colors aren't very true to life…I used aqua mist, hawaiian shores, and spring rain as well as sweet blush and hibiscus burst…but the pinks look orangey and the blues look greeny…sigh...


Here's my envelope…super simple…I also used the dot embossing folder on the back flap…just a little extra cute for the snail mail recipient :)

Thanks for looking!
have a TeRRiFiC week!!
