| RIC#75 Ralph Lauren 2015 Spring |
I thought I would create my colours using saturated watercolour, with a technique similar to that used by Loll (her fabulous video can be seen here), however I dropped my Distress Ink ReInkers directly onto slightly damp watercolour paper, then spritzed the paper lightly to blend the Picked Raspberry and Squeezed Lemonade colours. Once the paper was dry, I die cut the fabulous Winnie and Walter The Big, the Bold and the Happy Cutaway, and Simon Says Stamps Balloon Bouquet (NBUS). The balloon outline was also cut from black cardstock, and the second half of the sentiment is Winnie And Walter Winter Wonderland, stamped in Momento Luxe Tuxedo Black.

Such a happy card - love the color combo!
ReplyDeleteHi Lyndal, wow, this is so gorgeous! Picked Raspberry and Squeezed Lemonade is one of my favourite DI combinations - they look amazing together. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for your lovely comments on my Vintage-inspired birthday card - they made my day :-) I was starting to think that I was the ONLY Victorian making cards LOL - so nice to meet someone else who shares the same passion. Most people I meet in person don't "get" the whole cardmaking thing!

Wow, excellent watercoloring ala Lolly, Lyndal! I'm so impressed! This card is such a happy card and it's so perfect for RIC, especially! I just love how the "p" in happy sits over the straight part of the "d" in birthday! Cool design! I love that you linked up to my NBUS Challenge #3, but I don't see the challenge listed, or the badge, so I'm thinking maybe you changed your mind since you were over five challenges? Either way, it's a really glorious card and a winner in my book!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the bright colours. Great card
