Hello everyone! Today's Way to Use it Challenge was to use Watercolor Paper on our card. I used it for my main image and for the sentiment panel.
I got busy cleaning my craft space today and was finding little scraps of this and that... and that is how this card came about. I found this shimmery green paper and this cute ribbon and the rest was history.
I stamped Flaky Friends in Memento Black, colored with Copics and then painted all the snowmen in Shimmerz Angel's Wings. It's cloudy and dark here today and I can't capture the shimmer on the images... but trust me, it's there!
The sentiment was stamped in Baja Breeze and cut out and then the shimmery green was punched to be just a tad larger than the cutout. Ran GPW through the bug with the snowflakes ef, matted with more of the green and mounted on a top fold GPW. with the pink striped ribbon. Attached sentiment as a tag with gold thread.
Thanks for looking!

Grace, that shimmer paper is wonderful! I don't know how you got such a great picture, but it shows up really well! The watercoloring is fab, and so is that RED ribbon!!!!!
