Hello, crafty friends! It's me on a Monday, just popping in with a card for a couple challenges and some watercolor fun! I am glad to see you.
The weekly challenge at Waffle Flower is one you shouldn't miss! This week's theme is embossed resist watercolor.
You know I love to watercolor so I pulled out Bouquet Builder #6 and dies and painted with my Mungyo 46 pan set. Embossing the image in Rose Gold (Altenew) adds a soft glow. Embossing first helps those hesitant to watercolor because the embossing holds the water in place.
I had a foiled strip already made using a polka dot stencil so I added that for a focal point and to carry over the gold as an accent. That lets me add this to the challenge at The Paper Players to use polka dots on a CAS card.
I am so glad you came by to visit today! Getting to stamp just for fun makes it a happy day for me! Take care.
Be yourself
Delight in your craft

Stamping just for fun is the best kind of stamping! You know how I love watercolor, too, and yours is absolutely beautiful. Such a lovely and artfully crafted card, Cindy.
This is a sharp looking card! Love the gold embossing and beautiful watercoloring. The Navy base makes everything pop! Thanks for sharing at The Paper Players!
Why do I forget how beautiful floral images are embossed in gold??
Cindy, this is so gorgeous - especially that rose gold - perfect for these fabulous florals [still on my list!]
