Hello crafty friends, happy Friday! I'm so excited since I have a four day weekend! Next week we are going to a retirement party for a friend so I needed to make a card. I've been playing some of the water color techniques from a recent class and came up with this.
The background is made with ink and an acrylic block...there's no wrong way to do it either! I love that it's a great technique that can be used with any type of stamps, and masculine or femine cards.
After the water color background dried, I stamped the fish image from Peachy Keen and the sentiment from My Creative Time. Let it sit for a while then splatter a bit of watered down ink. The splattering gives the card some added depth.

Super cute and masculine! Enjoy your four day weekend!!!
Super cute...love the water colour blocks!!!
LOVE it!!!
I love the simplicity of this card. Haven't signed up for the watercolor class...yet, but it's at the top of my list! Nice touch with the twine and the color blocks with a blank stamped image. I'm going to try something like this for Father's Day!
XOXOX & Blessings,
