DEC 2,2019....SO THIS HAPPENED...FUNKY FUN TECHNIQUE...


I was playing in my craft room on the weekend and I wanted to try a technique I found on the internet.  

The original idea came from Kristina Werner here:

Now my card is much different than hers...hers is super simple and clean....mine is bright and funky...but the tree concept is still the same. 

I chose to use glossy white cardstock.  I masked off the area for the tree using low tack tape and had it taped to a hardboard. 

I chose assorted blue and green tones for my watercolor paints.  I painted stripes in varying directions using a round brush. 

I dried each color with my heat tool prior to applying the next color. 

I carefully removed the painter's tape keeping it flat to the paper as I removed it, however, I had one tear in the bottom right corner....so I needed a fix....so.....I used a funky corner punch for a unique look. 

The blue adhesive star I found in my stash of goodies and looks fab! 

The card base and ribbon are both Granny Apple Green. 

The greeting is stamped with Stazon ink and is from the Elfie stamp set.
