Convention 2011 Cards
So I've been busy, busy getting ready for my downline appreciation luncheon this weekend, and for Convention next week - woo, hoo!! There are some things I don't want to share yet, but I did want to share these. They are my cards for an organized swap I entered in for Convention. I used the new Hostess set "Faith in Nature" which I absolutely love. It's perfect for watercoloring - very "artsy" look to it - Here's a close up of the card - using Pear Pizzaz, Blushing Bride, Soft Suede, Basic Black and Vanilla. Each one was watercolored so they vary a bit - but I think they all came out great. And an even closer close-up of the water-coloring - isn't it pretty. I used watercolor paper, and found if you bend the corner a bit it will split and you can seperate it in two pieces - it makes it go twice as long, but even better, it is lighter and thinner then and adds less weight to your cards. Let me know what you think.
This is so pretty and soft! If I were at convention I would hunt you down and make you give me one! :))) Have a great time at convention and thanks for blessing my day. :)
