\nHello!!!<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nWelcome to the April Challenge at Craftangles<\/a>! The theme this month is Watercolours!<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nI have used the newly released Craftangles liquid watercolours to make the cards below!!<\/div>\n
\nThese watercolours are so amazing…they are beautifully vibrant and just don’t fade!!<\/div>\n
\nFor the cards below I have used them in three different ways and they look just beautiful!<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the first card, I stamped the floral image from the Craftangles ‘Happily Ever After’ stamp set<\/a> on Craftangles white card stock<\/a>. I then used Craftangles liquid watercolours<\/a> (Autumn blaze and Red paprika) to colour the image. I then smooshed some Craftangles ‘Lemon tart’ liquid watercolour<\/a> onto the background.<\/div>\n
\nI then die cut the Cross in the middle of the floral image, added 4 layers of coloured die cuts to create dimension and inlaid the die cuts back into the negative space to create an eclipse card. I added a sentiment and some sequins and finished the card.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the second card, I used a beautiful die from Stampin’up to die cut this filigree cross out of gold mirror cardstock. I die cut the wreath using a Lawn Fawn die and then smooshed some Craftangles ‘Evergreen’ liquid watercolour<\/a> on the wreath. I love how it is partially coloured but still creates so much pop!<\/div>\n
\nI created a background using a Cuttlebug embossing folder. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nFor the third card, I used the Craftangles ‘Poolside’ and ‘Evergreen’ liquid watercolours <\/a>to create a watercolour wash panel. I then die cut and dry embossed a white panel and adhered it to the watercolour panel using 3D foam tape. I then added some Craftangles clear sequins<\/a> to finish the card.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\nI hope you have been inspired to give these liquid watercolours a try. Do join in and play the Craftangles watercolour challenge<\/a>. You will find all the details HERE.<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThanks so much for stopping by!<\/div>\n
\nHave a great day!<\/div>\n
