This is my third try for a background using Kelly's Baby Wipe Watercolor technique for today's TLC. After browsing the entries for today's challenge, I saw that Linda ( Bubblestx4 ) used glossy card and that was the answer for me after having crumby results with both Whisper White and Neenah Solar White, Once I got it to work for me, this was a very fun technique and I can see myself using this again and again! Wish you could see the gold embossing, but there was so much glare trying to photograph this with the embossing and glossy card. Here is a link to the challenge: TLC630 ~ Baby Wipe Watercolor ~ {3/19/17} by kellyjg at Splitcoaststampers
Hope you can play along and TFL!

Well, I have not tried this technique yet, so thanks for the heads up that I might have a little trouble, lol...unless I use glossy. Love your green background for your Easter card.

Good Job, Claudia! You got a really nice marbled look on the glossy stock which makes a lovely backdrop for the gold embossed cross & sentiment. I like the simple white framing that really keeps the focus on the FAITH part of your card.
- PS Glad I could be of help cause this really is a quick simple bg when we can cut out the "frustration part".

Yes, glossy is great with this technique. Did you try watercolor paper? It's a totally different take with the BWW tech as well. LOVE your card! Great job!!!
