Sunday was a big day for my niece. She received her First Holy Communion. It was a beautiful event and great day surrounded by family. Congratulations Kathryn! We are so happy for you and you looked beautiful on your special day.
I ended up making 2 cards for Kathryn, one from my husband and me, and another for my in-laws to give her. Both cards are shown below and are centered around the same stamp set All God’s Grace, yet they are completely different in their styles.
I created a watercolor washed background for this first card. Using an Aqua painter, I created the background with Marina Mist ink. It took 3 layers to achieve the color I wanted for the background. Tip: Make sure you have wet Watercolor paper before adding color. Wait for each layer to dry or use a Heat Tool to dry it faster before going back over with another layer.
When I went back over the layers, I did not completely cover the previous layer. I wanted to be able to see the blending and multiple tones of Marina Mist ink.
