A Watered Spray

Welcome

It's time for another Word Art Wednesday Challenge, and our sponsor this challenge is

who are offering a $15 credit for the winner. 


I started my card by putting masking fluid over the printed text, then spraying it with Lindys Magicals
but when I rubbed off the mask, the printing was 'lost' in the speckled spray,
so I then went over the background with a wet brush and reactivated the paint, which gave me a background that the print was not lost in!


The panel was then framed with some lace, and mounted onto an ombre paper


I laid two strips of lace together for a feature across the base of the card, and finished the front with some clear Kindyglitz drops.

Sometimes things just don't work out; but the technique you used to pull out the sentiment was very creative and the card turned out very pretty. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and The Crafter's Cafe.

Wow Maxine, I love how you made the scripture pop with that background! Such a cool idea and I love it. The lace was another cool idea, that just really frames out the scripture beautifully. Love the lace border as well with the clear drops. Well if you can't tell, I love everything about this card! Hugs, Brenda

Love the color. The solution to the lost sentiment worked really well. The attention to the inside of the card is perfect.

Love, Hugs and Blessings
