Just Us Girls #453 Fast Watercolors


A card for JUGS  Love this technique by Jennifer McGuire and not sure why I haven't used it or remembered it as I struggle so much with watercoloring.  I love how this turned out and it is so easy.
I embossed the flowers in white, then used my Distress Inks, direct to paper and then squirted with water and that's it.  Easy, peasy.  Also, thanks Sue for the challenge.

You've gotten one of the best results I've seen from the Fast WC technique, Lin! This must be your new favorite card; it is mine! I am dying to have some time to try this fast technique!! Hugs, Darnell

WOW...this is one absolutely GORGEOUS card Lin...frame worthy!! I just watched that video yesterday and need to make time to try this technique...I've been hooked the past two days on stitching up felt snowflakes with PTI's new die and have to get back to card making here soon!! But anyway, your card is a stunner and just lovely, lovely!! :0)
