CAS Mix-Up wants loose watercoloring, Simon Says Stamp IG challenge is embossing and NBUS is something never used. So I combined the three with my new magnolia dies and embossing folder from SSS.
I first loosely watercolored on some watercolor paper with shades of pink, green and yellow.
I just play around with the color until there are a good mix of shades and then die cut the various parts - the pink piece had already been die cut. If necessary, I add in more color after die cutting. Embossed my background and assembled with the sentiment.
Thanks for stopping by.
