Fun With Shapes

And Wonderful Water Colors

Water coloring the cut out shape from this card 

made another fun card with the leftovers for the

water color challenge at Heart 2 Heart.

Water coloring the cut out butterfly and adding the

white layering softens the water color look.

When playing with your water colors don't forget the shapes

and layers available with the new Artistry Cricut cartridge.

Winter Wonder Window

Making A Window Card

Making a window card is easy as choosing a shape, cut out

 the shape and stamp a scene behind the cut out shape.

Be sure to check out Through the Window challenge

at Heart 2 Heart for more window ideas.

I cut out the snowflake using water color paper. 

 After wetting the water colored the paper I painted it 

with a light blue. While it was wet I sprinkled salt on the 

blue paint to get the snow effect. I stamped a snow scene

 in the window and put the card together. Make your window

 card and share with us at Heart 2 Heart.

Water Color Fun

With Splats of Color

Adding a splat of color to your card has never been easier.

Just use our new CTMH Water Color paints, water color paper and

brushes. Add a sentiment with black ink and embellish with any

assortment of black embellishments.

For the splat technique cut your water color paper 1" bigger on all

sides of the size you will want to use. Attach the paper to a piece of

cardboard with washi tape to secure. Wash the paper with clear water

using the widest brush. Choose your colors and add your splats with the

largest round brush. Each splat will run in the wet water that you washed

on the paper. They will run together to make other colors. I started with

the red color, then added some yellow and then the green. I just let 

the splats run on the paper wherever they wanted to go. Let the paper

dry completely before you make your card.
