The current challenge at A Blog Named Hero is "Watercolor". I think watercoloring is my favorite way to add color to a card. For my card I spritzed water on a card base with a mister than sprinkled on Lime Green Colorburst Powder. I used my heat tool to dry in between adding layers of color. I then heat embossed the leaf background with clear embossing powder. For the next layers of color I used a small amount of Turqoise Colorburst and Cobalt Blue Colorburst. Once the color was dry I ironed off the clear embossing powder.
I placed a clean piece of printer paper over top then used a dry iron to heat the embossing powder. The paper absorbs the embossing powder. If I wanted the leaves to be shiny I would not remove the clear embossing powder.
I finished off the card with some gold thread and the sentiment which is heat embossed in white. I added some dimension with fun foam between the front layer and the green layer.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope to see your watercoloring in the challenge at A Blog Named Hero.
