Thanks so very much for the lovely comments on my last post. Once again there's a lot of activity in blogland as W & W is having several WCMD challenges. Although I began planning and crafting soon after, I managed to complete the cards only today as my BIL is here from Canada. So, it's more of cooking than crafting. So once again, I have a long post with four cards.
CARD #1 Using a frame stamp to build a background design
I enjoy creating watercoloured backgrounds, here's another in fall colours.
Supplies used...
Frame stamp from RAK- company unknown
PTI-Spring woods (sentiment)
watercolor paper
pan watercolor
bling

The watercolored background was adhered to the card base, then repeatedly stamped with the frame stamp in white. Next the sentiment was stamped and the card was finished off with a previously die cut & watercolored leaf HERE and bling.

CARD #2 A card for a crafty friend using the pinspiration pic
I made this card for my crafty friend here, Sr. Martha...a nun in charge of a home for orphan girls. Although we cannot craft together because of our own busy schedules, we share our craft supplies and ideas.
Stampology-FlourishesTaylored Expression-Embrace beauty(sentiment)
watercolor paper
pan watercolors
The card was made using the pinspiration image below. First, the background was partially watercoloured, then stamped using seven of the nine flourish stamps from the same set and finished off with a stamped sentiment.

CARD #3 CASEing a card by Kate Capper using aqua, blue & green
Here's a CAS card with more watercolouring and changing a 'Thank You' die cut to 'Thanks'.
Supplies used:
Hero Arts-fancy die
watercolor paper
pan watercolors
stickles
bling
A panel of paper was watercoloured in blue and green. The sentiment was die cut from an aqua coloured cardstock. See the original 'Thank You die cut HERE. To make the word 'Thanks', the end of the 'K' was cut and part of the 'Y' in 'you' and the end of the 'K' were joined to form an 'S', then attached to the 'K'. To CASE the card below, the background was cut to the desired size, then adhered the die cut sentiment, a strip of aqua cardstock and finished off with stickles on the sentiment to conceal the joined 'S' and bling.

CARD #4 Building a card with Taheerah's pick & mix counters
Here's my take on the challenge using the watercolour trend, heat embossing technique, masculine theme, white as the neutral colour and four other colours...mustard, lawn, rust & merlot.
four wooden stamps-company unknown
SRM sticker (sentiment)
gold embossing powder
watercolor paper
watercolor pencils
gold acrylic paint
SRM sticker (sentiment)
gold embossing powder
watercolor paper
watercolor pencils
gold acrylic paint
After heat embossing the stamped leaves on watercolor paper, they were coloured with watercolour pencils. The narrow panel was then adhered to the card base and the sticker sentiment was adhered to form a border above the panel. The card was finished off with a splats of gold.
