Happiness 2

This is my second card using the No Line Watercolouring technique (if you missed the first, you can see it here). I used the Hero Arts Butterfly. As this is a very arty technique and you sort of have to go with the flow, it was quite difficult to try and get the 2 wings to match. Not a perfect job, but a good first try.


The small frame behind the turquoise one, has been embossed. It was Jacqueline's card that gave me the idea of making an embossed frame. Didn't want it too big as I wanted to keep it as light as possible.


I will enter this for ...

    This is so pretty Janet- I remember this technique from the online watercolor class but never tried it - now you've inspired me to have a go at it - thanks

    A beautiful card. Butterflies are not made to match exactly and your butterfly is gorgeous.

    So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas.
