I made this card for a swap, and liked it so much that it was also the bonus project for February’s CAM class.
If you haven’t used the Shimmery White cardstock, you should try it. It has a beautiful sparkle to it, and it works well with watercolor techniques.
I used three of the new in-colors and the aquapainter to make the background for this card. It’s so easy. Just use re-inkers or squish your inkpad to get some ink in the lid, water it down well with the aquapainter and stroke it across the card.
Stamps: Dragonfly Dreams
Cardstock: Basic Black, Shimmery White

Other: 3/8″ Flirty Flamingo Ruched Ribbon, Basic Black Solid Bakers Twine, Silver Sequin Trim, Silver Metallic Thread, Aquapainter
I hope you like this card as much as I do! If you need any of the supplies used to create this card, you can find them all in my online store.
