Inspired by the Weather!

I made this card yesterday and the weather was the reason. I woke up and it was so nice and cool outside! I have also noticed some of our trees starting to change color.
This is a simple card only using a couple techniques, but for some reason it seemed like that was all it called for.
I hope your weather is cool and you are warm, Thinking About You!!!

A card for the hubby!


This started as a Splitcoaststampers.com sketch challenge and ended up to be a card for my husband.
For the first time I picked up a stamp set and said ok I'm going to use this and didn't change my mind. I'm really glad I did.
The background is done on watercolor paper, Classic Ink Pads and an Aqua Painter.
The main card was run through the Big Shot using a texture plate. They work good to give your card that little something it needs.
I used Black Stazon to stamp my image so I would be able to color my fisherman in a little darker.
Watercoloring is SO EASY and really gives your card so much!
