Good morning everyone. Today is Friday which means it is time for another BS&J Productions Stamp Off Challenge! Today’s challenge is to make a Watercolor Wash Background.
Here is my card:
To Make this card I started with a piece of Shimmer White Paper. If you have never tried Shimmer White Paper, you really need to. It is a bit thicker than regular cardstock and has a slight shimmer to it which is actually beautiful. It is great for any kind of watercoloring. I squeezed some ink (Coastal Cabana, Lemon Lime Twist and Gorgeous Grape) into the lids of the corresponding ink pad cover. Then I took my Aqua Painter, added a couple of drops of water into the ink and then spread it over the Shimmer Paper. After I had done this with all three colors I then dripped some water over the top of it to add the water spots.
The sentiment is a die called Thank You Thinlits. I cut this out inn Basic Black cardstock. I felt like it needed more so I added the Droplets from the Frosted and Clear Epoxy Droplets. These are in the 2018 Holiday Catalog.
Now, let’s go see what Buffy and Jackie made.

Susan, this is lovely. I really like the added touch of the water drops, that emphasize that beautiful wash

This is definitely a “WOW!” card, Susan. I love the colors, the drops of water are perfect, and the epoxy drops mimic the water drops beautifully. It all makes such a gorgeous backdrop for the sentiment and a very stunning card.
