April 22- Flowers With Watercolors


April 23-Stand By Your Man Explosion Card

April 24-Holidays Candy Holder





I'm not big on water coloring but you would never know since I just kept making cards.  I also like my tea so I used the stamp set Relax a bit.  did the basic water coloring on the images themselves but for the backgrounds I did a lot of distress inks and water.  I also used my favorite new item......a stencil...yes, this die heart stamper has jumped on the stencil band wagon with this tea cut stain stencil.  the proper name is TH Splatters.  Have fun hopping and good luck in drawing.

Lovely water coloring. Tea cups are so elegant in my eyes.
I really love that you are on the wagon with stencils. There are so many fun techniques you can do with them. I think they will continue to grow in popularity as these big name crafters find and show us different ways to use them.
