Hello! Thank you for stopping by. So Saturday was World Card Making Day and I wasn't feeling well, so I celebrated on Sunday.
My card features some die cuts from Honey Bee Stamps - their Heartfelt Harvest collection has grabbed my heart and isn't letting go. I'm also playing along with Just Us Girls 700th challenge. Congratulation JUGS!
I started with a piece of watercolor card stock die cut from a stitched rectangle die from Pink & Main. I washed some Broken China Distress Oxide ink onto the cardstock. That was the extent of "watercoloring." The wagon wheel and mushrooms are from the Heartfelt Harvest Collection from Honey Bee Stamps, I die cut these elements from scraps in my scrap box using the color palette from JUGS. I added a grass die cut from Tonic Studios behind the wheel. I added a bit of Moroccan Flame Dream Drops to the center hub of the wheel. I finished off the card by adding a sentiment from Bouquets & Buttermilk from Tonic Studios and Mountain Dew Crystal Drops.
I am so pleased with how this card turned out. I am loving these dies so much, you'll see them a lot during the months of October and November.
Congratulations to Lisa Kind and her team on their 700th challenge! They started just after I started Tuesday Morning Sketches - I am so glad that both these challenge blogs are still here after 14 years!
5 Encouraging Thoughts:
These die cuts worked perfectly in the colors. Thanks for sharing at JUGS
I can see why you love those dies, Melissa, and I love them too. I may have to add that wheel to my stash. Your simple watercolored background was a great place to add the colorful die cuts. Thanks for joining our birthday celebration at Just Us Girls.
Beautiful card! Great way to watercolor, and I love these dies!
Melissa, your card is just gorgeous! Love the soft background and of course the Fall items. Thanks for playing along for our 700th Challenge at Just Us Girls.
I can see why you love this collection; such pretty elements, especially for the Autumn scene you've created here. Thank you so much for celebrating Just Us Girls' 700th challenge with us!
