eTeam Picks Challenge - Water coloring

Hello everyone, Giovana here today and I am so excited to be hosting the eTeam Picks Challenge this month. 

So my challenge for you this month is "Water coloring" easy right? {wink, wink}

I love water coloring, it's like a relax therapy for me, seriously!! So talking about a relax therapy, I inked a brand new image by Catherine Scanlon Designs "Joy".

Here are the details :

• Start with a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock, stamp the image with Jet Black Archival Ink, then mist the cardstock with water and start coloring it Distress Inks. I just add some ink to an acrylic block and take the ink with a pen brush.
• For the frame I used Tumbled Glass; for the flowers I used Worn Lipstick, Victorian Velvet, Barn Door; for the leaves I used Peeled Paint and Forest Moss; for the center I used Antique Linen and Vintage Photo. I set aside to let it dry.
• While image is air drying, create the background. For this mix Embossing paste and Amber Gold paint, add a stencil to card front and add the mix. Set aside to dry or you can use to heat tool. (I prefer to air dry)

• When paste/paint is dried, add a piece of blue cardstock to your card front, tie Denim twine.
• Stamp sentiment on dried image in Coffee Archival Ink, the sentiment is from Strictly Sentiment by Wplus9.
• Add image to front of card with foam adhesive.
