Watercoloring Simple Valentines

 This week the watercoloring challenge is following along with one of Emma Lefebvre's tutorials for hearts and lines as simple Valentine cards seen here on Youtube. 


The one on the right was the first panel done on some Strathmore 400 series wc paper and the one on the left was the second one done on some Arches 100% cotton paper. both of these were taped to the what is the back panel of empty Strathmore pads that is use for painting boards when I do tape something down and it cracked me up that the Arches paper is the one that decided to warp off the tape. That panel I also ended up add-libbing some heart outlines to the mix of the color flow hearts. I never got around to doing the stripe versions. 


The one on the left was cut from the first panel that uses a square from the Paper Rose lots of squares die set and the outside of the frame with all the hearts embossed into it ( that die does that cuts and embosses that frame) is up on foam pop dots for interest. The one on the right, is from the second panel and I used a couple of the dies in the Waffle Flower Lacy Layers A7 rectangle set and then taped them back together on the back side of the cuts. I don't remember which tag die that is but, the button is a craft one tied onto the sheer ribbon with some May Arts burlap string. and that card finished out at A6 in real life. That's about it from me, you can find this challenge here at Splitcoaststampers to play along with us. Thanks for stopping by.
