I had so much fun making this CAS card for several of my favorite Challenges.
I used the Watercoloring EB Resist Tech on the flower. I heat embossed my flower images with Versamark and Black EB Powder. That keeps the ink inside the image when you watercolor.
I spritzed the Chevron stamp lightly with water then added my inks with my aqua painter. Using 3 different shades of ink for an ombre effect. Cut the piece at an angle to ground my flower.
Attached my colored and fussy cut flower pieces with mini glue dots for a little dimension. I have seen so many cards lately with sentiments cut apart and really liked the effect. I cut my sentiment into 2 pieces and attached outside the box.
Such a CAS card, but I really like the clean, crisp summery look. Hope you do too:-)

This is terrific Nancy. I love how you combined so many fun challenges. Thank you for the description my friend, I will have to give wash technique a try.

Beautiful CAS design, Nancy! I love the watercolored flower and look you achieved with the chevron stamp! The angled piece is great for grounding the flower!
