CASE-Day 2

It's Day 2 of my CASED (Copy And Share Everything) cards from Stampin' Up!

This one was featured in my Corporate July Email Newsletter. I add my info and send it off to my customers,etc. Within minutes, I had a customer who is a part of one of my Stampers 6 groups contact me. She wanted the Happiness card demonstrated at our group the next day. I was like-What card? HAH! That will teach me to not read my own Newsletter from S.U. On the top they always have a card or project with info on how to make. If you like-You can order everything from my site.

The original instructions? There really weren't any but I decided after 2 failed attempts what worked. I used the Watercolor paper (like it called for) so one would assume that you are using the watercolor technique–Right!! Wrong. I did not check with the artists at S.U. but after making a series of messes with water and ink I found what worked. I think the best way to get the look I have on the card was using the daubers to burnish in the color. The embossed flowers resist the ink. I would Love to hear your comments or questions.
