I hope everyone is having a fun and safe 4th of July! I'm joining the current challenge at A Blog Named Hero with a clean and simple sympathy card. I have been challenging myself to use other coloring mediums and techniques. These Twinkling H20's have been in my crafty stash for a long time. I decided that the Botanical Peony from Hero Arts would be perfect for water color. I started by embossing the image in gold on water color paper. I painted with Sweet Lavendar and Moss Green paints. The card was finished with a Hero Arts sentiment, sequins and water color splatters. I have layered it with Wisteria Wonder from Stampin' Up! I would like to share my card with the following; A Blog Named Hero: June Challenge - Sympathy Word Art Wednesday: #394 - #395 Anything Goes Simon Says Monday Challenge: Make Your Own Background Cute Card Thursday Challenge: #589 Anything Goes
