MONDAY

Today's post shows one of the cards I made for our Joyful Hearts Stampers' Sale-a-bration swap.  It uses the By the Bay stamp set, FREE with your $50 order.

Excuse the finger, but I was taking the picture quickly before I put it in the mail at the post office.  I almost forgot!

For this card you can use Watercolor Paper (122959) or Shimmery White Paper (101910).  I chose the Shimmery paper because I had a bunch to make and Shimmery is a little less expensive.  

I used my Aqua Painter to color the image quickly and get a watercolor look.

Here is a video to show you how to use Aqua Painters and/or Blender pens.  In this video it shows you to squeeze the lid to get the ink color in the lid.  You can also put a drop of reinker in the lid to get more ink to play with.

Other supplies used:

Balmy Blue, Pacific Point, Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron card stock

Staz On Ink pad

Ink pads for the Aqua Painter - Balmy Blue, Garden Green, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede

Triple Banner, 1 1/4" punch
