Clean & Simple, Day 5

This is my first try at using watercolor paper on a card. I really like the way this looks, but I couldn't get a good picture of it. I'll be using this technique again. Maybe I'll kick it up a notch rather than use this safe, easy example.

  3. Your card looks great, Dixie! I can't wait to try this, too, but I didn't have time to go look for those foam pads today! Love the ink colors you chose!

  5. "Seedless Preserves?" I haven't seen that Distress Ink color before. Is it a limited edition?

  6. Ooh, so pretty! And I have all those materials -- gotta try this myself!

    Kirsten, Seedless Preserves was indeed one of the Fall Limited Edition inks. You might still find some available online or in your LSS.
