Gratitude : CAS card

Hi Crafty peeps,
This time it’s a non floral card and playing with Brushos is my most favorite one among the techniques.
Absolutely love the way the color bursts and reacts with water and gives an abstract/organic look. 

  • Took a non-watercolor cardstock this time, and played with Brushos – Yellow and bit of Crimson crystals.
  • Both mixed up to give an awesome abstract look on the card.
  • Stamped the sentiment from Stamplorations ‘Art is’ stampset on the card panel.
  • Then onto the vellum, white heat embossed small butterflies from Stamplorations Trendy butterflies-2 stampset.
  • Added the fussy cut vellum butterflies to the card panel.
  • Matted this over the white top fold 4×6″ card base and few clear dew droplets to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!
