CAS-ual Fridays The Challenge - Off The Edge!


It's The Challenge time again over at CAS-ual Fridays!  This week we're going Off The Edge!

http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.com/2017/03/cfc169-off-edge.html

For my card this week I used the following stamps and dies from CAS-ual Fridays:

Mon Ami Stamps and Mon Ami Fleur dies

For my card today I took my top layers of watercolored Mon Ami  flowers "off the edge" of my card.  I watercolored the green background and the flowers using 140 lb watercolor paper and Faber-Castell's Gelatos.  This is my first time watercoloring and distressing with Gelatos and I am super impressed with the vibrant colors. 


I also used the following supplies:
Ink: clear emboss (Versamark), Midnight (Catherine Pooler Designs).
Paper:  watercolor paper 140 lb (Canson), Premium White Cardstock (Catherine Pooler Designs).
Accessories:  metallic platinum sparkle embossing powder (WOW!), gold glitter pen (Gellyroll), Gellatos (Faber-Castell).



This Mon Ami stamp set embossed beautifully using a platinum sparkle embossing powder.  The embossing really helps to keep your watercolors contained in the image.  No seeping out of the lines.







I hope you'll play along with us for your chance to win!
