Bordering Watercolor

Here we go-card one from Open Houses this weekend! A great time was had by all-a BIG THANKS to all who came!!

This is another card that was inspired by my upline, Linda Gutierrez. Her version is HERE. I hadn't used this set yet, but loved what she did!! Here is my version, I changed it just a little.


The card base is Basic Gray with a Naturals Ivory accent layer behind the Riding Hood Red background. The Riding Hood Red was textured in the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing folder. I used Basic Gray instead of black-I like the softer look sometimes and this was one :) On a smaller Naturals Ivory, we stamped the large flower from Bordering on Romance (centered vertically). We watercolored using Blender Pens and classic ink. Once done, we textured it in the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. The flower image is layered onto another Basic Gray and attached to the Riding Hood Red background. We added a saying at the top left with Circle punches (1-1/4 & 1-3/8). This one is from, the On Your Birthday set. There was also a choice of "Get Well Soon" from Delightful Dozen, and "thanks, thanks, thanks" from Pretty Postage. The Riding Hood Ribbon was attached near the bottom of the flower layer with Mini Glue Dots. The final accent is a Large Pear-have you noticed those in the Occasions Mini??
