I felt like creating a Spring themed card today.
We are going to have a cooler spell this week but that makes it all the more fun to create cards
that bring Spring into my home!

The focal image was colored with Copic Alcohol ink markers.
I added Some Multiliner to areas that may have to stamped clearly.
I used watercolor for my background by lightly wetting the paper
and allowing the various ink to infuse near each other.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite background techniques!
I adhered my layers with adhesive
and
With a few pearls for a touch of elegance, my card is completed.
I hope you enjoy my Springtime card
and that you will stop by Paper Temptress and see the beautiful papers and card stock.
I know I love adding new things to my collection!

That lacy die cut is a terrific way to showcase your lovely watercolored image. I have the die, now if I only had the talent to paint like you. I'll keep practicing....maybe someday...sigh.....thanks for being my inspiration.
