Brushed Florals

Watercolor crystals will always yield surprising results. Sometimes, I am a bit disappointed, especially if some of the colors run together to create a muddy presence. Still, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Thoughts?

As you can see, I went a bit overboard in creating these cards. It is so easy and fun to play with watercolor crystals. I used the Brusho Crystal Colours on the first card and the Pigment Watercolor Sprinkles on the other two cards.

First, I sprinkled the DSP panel with some watercolor crystals or sprinkles.

I then spritzed the panel with water, and let the crystals or sprinkles do their thing. I did keep a paper towel close by to dab here and there. The muddy look happens when too many of the colors run together. Oops.

I let the panels dry for a bit.

Next, I stamped the sentiments on scraps of matching cardstock.

I punched them out, using the Washi Label Punch. 

Next, I adhered the dried panels onto a Basic Black matte and then onto a matching card front.

I then adhered a bit of Gold Glitter Ribbon to the card front and attached the sentiment, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added some Enamel Shapes and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
