Hey there! Hope you are enjoying these last few days of summer! September will be here all too soon!

Today's card is a CASE from Sara Douglass' Facebook Live video with Thoughtful Branches and the "Reinker Watercolor Wash" technique:

With this technique you brush reinker straight out of the bottle across Watercolor Paper using an AquaPainter and LOTS of water. I brushed on Daffodil Delight first, adding Tangerine Tango on top and Pear Pizzazz to the bottom.

An illusion of a white frame was achieved by masking the edges with washi tape before brushing on the reinker, then  removing after the ink  has dried.

Another piece of Watercolor Paper was washed with reinker, then stamped with the Thoughtful Branches leaf in Versamark and clear heat-embossed. After embossing the leaves were sponged with Soft Suede ink before being cut out with a Beautiful Branches framelit. The clear embossing allows the Watercolor Washed colors to show through!

A few more of the same cut out leaves were added to the inside.

The sentiment is also from Thoughtful Branches.

I am very excited to announce that this card is one of the three included in the August Thoughtful Branches Online Class!
