Rainbow Watercolored Thank You

Hi everyone!
Nothing makes me happier than water colored rainbows.  Anyone else with me?!


I made this card for the AEI♥U Challenge and the Watercolor blog hop hosted by Paulina over at Pretty Pink Posh!



I was inspired by this card Catherine made the other day.   I inked up this fun stamp by Avery Elle using my Mini Distress Inks.  After stamping I took my Aqua Painter and colored in random squares to give them a watercolor look.   I fussy cut the bottom row and added to my black card base.  White heat embossed the sentiment, added a few matching enamel dots and that finished off my card.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

    Loving this vibrant card Kristie - fabulou use of the stamp and the water coloured shapes. The fussy cut border is striking, and is the fact you used a black base.
