Single Poppy- CAS Watercolour Challenge

Hello and Welcome

Time for another card for the 

CAS WATERCOLOUR CHALLENGE

This month our theme is Poppy.

So onto my card details.

Last month, I was so lucky to have won a gift certificate to buy some goodies from Visible Image Stamps.  I have had my eye on this poppy set called Creative Chaos for awhile so was thrilled to pick it up.

I began with some heavy white cardstock and applied some Twisted Citron and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks along the right side using the Acetate Inking technique.  I stamped the circles, also from that set, over the inked area to add interest.  

I placed the dried piece into my Misti and stamped the Poppy with some Tuxedo black Memento ink and clear heat embossed it as I wanted to do some watercolouring and didn't want the inks to bleed.

I rubbed some more of the Distress Oxides inks onto my acetate sheet and picked up the ink with a wet paintbrush to watercolour the flower head.

I stamped the sentiment using my Misti again and simply mounted it all onto a white card base.

Thanks so much for coming to take a look.

I hope you will check out the beautiful poppy cards our DT's have created.
