Be Merry and Bright

Today's card is one that I needed to do

to get my mind back in the creating mode.

I have been working the last week with the hubby

getting ready for a cancer fund raiser golf outing that

is in it's 35th year, and I think he has been volunteering

for the last 25 at least.

(Somehow when he volunteers I am very involved, too..lol)

So, I saw this challenge at CAS Watercolour and thought it

was a technique I had yet to try,

and plus the fact I had won a gift certificate to Scrapyland

and decided my 'gift' would be the perfect die for this challenge.

The challenge is to create a CAS watercolor card using salt.

My above card is my first attempt to try this technique.....

The die I used is a Poppystamp Evangeline Floating Square.

I used some of the first water colors I ever purchased (cheap and old..lol).

I have some really nice watercolors now and think when I have time

(whenever that might be) 

I will try this again to see if I can get a much bolder look.

Entering in the following challenges:

The Holly and Ivy Christmas .... ATG

Connie Can Crop .... Watercolors (m)

Cas Watercolour .... Salt Technique (8/24)
