Belle Papier {pretty paper}

I love the beach. It’s not too far away and it’s my favorite place in the world. Of course, I haven’t traveled too far but hey! I’m happy so it’s all good, right?

Today’s design feature a new line from CHF, Sara England. Sarah is a Maryland artist that features whimsical designs of dogs. It’s so fun to work with them converted into images for stamping. While I had a Shepherd and not a Lab…these darling images remind me of the times we spent with our late, family pet.

I don’t have a WT challenge for you today. There’s a guest hostess at SCS stepping in for me as we decided to take an extra day off and stay at the cottage. Thanks Melody! Be sure to check it out as it’s a super fun challenge!

Sailing

This watercolor effect is easy to do. After embossing your image with clear embossing powder, wet your paper well. Pick up reinker color with a waterbrush and dab into each section. The wet paper should pull the color to fill the embossed section. Allow to dry well before creating your card.

Quick Tip: Make sure the paper is quite damp to allow the ink to move.
