Today's CAS challenge is Winter Birthdays. A perfect challenge as my favourite niece's birthday is January 6 and, because of being so busy with Christmas, I often end up making and sending her card a bit late - so now I have the card ready to mail right after Christmas,
A simple heat embossing resist, done in white on watercolour paper, then a blue watercolour wash around the trees, a heat embossed sentiment, and some splatters of white acrylic paint. The watercolour paper warped badly from the wash, so I stuck it down on fun foam to help straighten it out.
I'm adding it to the CAS Watercolour challenge as well as the December challenge is "watercolour resist". Here's the link if you want to join in:

Wow, I love this card and am sure that your niece will as well! The white on white embossing looks fabulous with that blue wash- great job, sweet friend!
