Well hello there – today I am a Guest Designer over at AAA Birthday Challenge #2 – Use Water Colours.
I decided to use a variety of Distress Ink blues that I smooshed in layers on some masked off water colour paper. I love how drying each colour before applying the next makes it look like actual water! I then stamped the flamingo and sentiment from an old Reverse Confetti set called ‘Fabulous Flamingo’ – can you see that I clear embossed the wing and beak? I added a couple of The Ton sequins for a finishing touch.
Come join in our fun and make a card using water colours and link it up here. Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Tx Dawn. This set was hiding at the back. Had it for ages. It’s got matching dies too.

That’s an amazingly realistic watercoloured background. Great tip on how to achieve this look too. Thanks so much for joining AAA Birthday as a Guest Designer this month, it’s been a pleasure to have you.
