Just For Fun Friday - Watercolor Challenge

I don't know about you but when Monday is a holiday and Friday rolls around I'm thinkin' it's Thursday!  Drives me nuts...

Anyway, today I have another quick and easy challenge for you this week....

Try a bit of watercoloring! 

This card was lots of fun to make, just stamp, swish around a few colors of Distress Ink, add a bit of Stickles Glitter Glue for some flash and you're done!  Now I like to use my Niji Waterbrush for this technique but of course a paint brush and water work just as well.

  I LOVE using this technique for simple yet elegant cards.  What's really great about this technique is that you can use virtually any image and color combo for a perfect card!  Doesn't get much better than that now does it?

Now it's your turn...sometime this weekend give this technique a try and see if you don't fall in love with it too!

Have a wonderful weekend!!
