Hello! I love trying different techniques for card making, this was a fun one from Lydia Fielder for Splitcoast Stampers. I used Brusho powders sprinkled on plastic wrap to create the background.
I sprinkled three different colors of the watercolor powders on the plastic wrap, spritzed them with water then put my watercolor cardstock on top. I wrapped the plastic wrap around the cardstock, flipped it over and adjusted the wrap so it would be more wrinkly. I let the piece dry for several hours then removed the wrap and let it dry overnight. I embossed the sentiment and adhered the diecut birds to the card(stamp and die from Concord & 9th). To finish off the card I added some Nuvo Drops and some dimensional foam tape under the bird wings.
