Watercolored Quilt

                      watercolor.bloghop

This is my second post today, and I'm entering the following card into the Watercolor Blog Hop hosted by Pretty Pink Posh.


I added color to the watercolor card background with yellow, orange and pink reinkers and used an aquabrush to blend and move the colors together. After it dried, I sponged circles of assorted sizes with white pigment ink; which is called the Bokeh technique. If you click the photo to enlarge it, you will see some of those white circles which really enhance the watercolor design. I used a MFT stitched quilt die to cut the colored panel along with a black panel, and swapped the colored pieces back into the black frame, adding 2 punched flowers done with a SU! punch and a black mini brad to the center. The sentiment is from Hero Arts and seemed perfect to blend with a cozy and warm quilt.

Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to check out all the beautiful water color entries in this challenge - you'll be inspired to get out your watercolors and play along!
