For the February challenge, the theme is 'Anything goes' with the option of 'Hearts'
I used Brushos (ultramarine, turquoise and emerald green) and watercolour card to create my background panel. After my panel had dried, I used my go to stitched rectangle die (SSS) to die cut my panel and then die cut the words from my brusho panel and again from a scrap of white cardstock. I adhered the panel flat onto my white card base and inlaid the white die cut letters. For the love part of my sentiment, I adhered a green heart gem from my stash that really picks up the green colours in my background.

Great die cut letters ... and wonderful contrast with your watercolored background ... so very glad you got texty with us at jingle belles.
ReplyDeleteoh this is YUMMY! i love the background and that was so clever to cut the sentiment from within it and INLAY the white letters... i totally need to try that! (not that i expect to get anything 1/2 so fab as this, however!) so happy you could get texty with us at JINGLE BELLES! ♥
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your brusho background! My favourite watercolouring medium. The large die cut sentiments just pop and I adore the heart! Thanks for being our Guest Designer this month at Happy Little Stampers! xx
