For the sentiment banner, I masked off an area and then used a couple of different inks in blue tones to get my ombre look. I really love how that part turned out. The colors just blended beautifully and did exactly what I wanted them to do. I grounded them with a bit of black and then added a strip of glitter paper for some sparkle!
The postcard stamp is from the Camden Town Male 1 set from Crafter's Companion and the sentiment is from the Sentimentals Love is All You Need set. I love the sentimentals sets. And the Camden sets, for that matter. This card combines some of my favorites! YAY!!!
Have you tried watercoloring with distress inks? I love it. I really do. It's a lot of fun to do and a bit less messy than pulling out the tubes of watercolors. I have some pots, too. Those aren't messy. I like them. I need to get a good watercolor palette, though. Like... the grown-up version of those white trays with the 6 colors in them we had as kids. If you have one that is great quality I'd love to know about it! Well... that was a bit of a random rambling on watercolors, but, alas. HA!
Have a Happy!!!
