AUG10VSNF ~ Saturday, August 29th ~ 12:00pm EST ~ Cool, clear water![/

[font=Verdana]Title: Cool, clear water
Hostess: Karen, imastampin
Keyword: AUG10VSNF
Day/Date: Saturday, August 28th
Time: 12:00pm EST

Ooooooo eeeeeeee, it has been a HOT summer! How do you cool down? We all love to cool off by playing in water in the summer, whether it is jumping into the pool, lake or river, throwing water balloons, water fights with squirt guns or just sitting under a mister and drinking some cool lemonade.

My challenge is to use water in some way when creating your card. Here are a few ideas: watercolor with markers, reinkers, watercolor crayons or watercolor pencils, mist your inked stamp before stamping, wet and crumple your cardstock, wet paper water coloring, wet watercolor crayons, wrinkle-free distress, shimmering watercolor crayons, wet a sponge and dip in your ink and sponge the edges of your card, moisten mulberry paper and tear it, watercolor wash, etc. Several of these techniques are found in the Resources section if you need some help. A water image does not count! I want you to use water in some other way to create your card.
