Simply the Best

I love how this came out - I used freezer paper for a mask. I cut the freezer paper with the PaperTrey butterfly die and ironed it onto the watercolor paper.  I then watercolored around and over the mask using the wet on wet watercolor technique.  I carefully lifted the mask off when the panel was dry and stamped the sentiment (from Technique Tuesday). I added a few gems and mounted it onto aqua mist card stock and added a thin black strip to make the watercolor panel pop.

I am submitting this to:

Mom

I created this card for several challenges - a bit too late for Mother's day though. I'll save it for my mom's birthday. I used a Concord & 9th Bouquet die and cut it from a panel of white card stock. I colored the flowers and stem with carious inks and returned the die cut back into the panel. I finished it off with a large banner. The sentiment is from Winnie & Walter.
