Today, I worked on my idea for a card to participate in the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge. This week it was a sketch challenge. Instead of using patterned paper I chose to interpret the sketch as a watercolor design. I used Altenew's Watercolor 36 pan palette for the colors. I used some of my favorite autumn colors. Then I took Newton's Nook leaf stencil and applied solar paste to the watercolor panel. So shimmery and fun and still lets the watercolors shine through.I then took a cute image from the Pumpkin Spice Latte set also from Newton's Nook. Did a little masking to get the 3 pumpkins in the background and then watercolored the image in using similar colors to the background.
I used a rectangle frame die to cut the image and create a shaker card.
I had some fun autumn fillers and added a few sequins as well.
I like how this turned out - so much fun.
Let me know what you think.
What a pretty background and even more fun that it's a shaker card! Thanks for playing along with the Inky Paws Challenge!
